Project description
This project presents a simple and low-cost IoT solution to monitor and control a smart dual-axis solar tracker system for performance evaluation. YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7tsO0rL1Cs&ab_channel=ThinkTechno Internet of Things (IoT)-based solar tracker The proposed IoT-based solar tracker system is depicted in Fig. 1. It is a dual-axis solar tracker that can rotate automatically to track the sun’s position using LDR sensors, or manually by the user through the dashboard of an IoT application. The system starts with detects the sun position (intensity of light) by LDR…
