Title: Dual-Axis Sun Tracking Solar Panel using ATmega328
Abstract: Sun tracking solar panels, with their ability to optimize solar energy capture throughout the day, have garnered significant attention for improving the efficiency of solar energy systems.This research paper focuses on the design and implementation of dual-axis sun tracking solar panels utilizing microcontroller.Solar panel has been used increasingly in recent years to convert solar energy to electrical energy.The solar panel can be used either as a stand-alone system or as a large solar system that is connected to the electricity grids.The earth receives 84 Terawatts of power and our world consumes about 12 Terawatts of power per day.We are trying to consume more energy from the sun using solar panel.In order to maximize the conversion from solar to electrical energy, the solar panels have to be positioned perpendicular to the sun.Thus the tracking of the sun's location and positioning of the solar panel are important.The goal of this project is to design an automatic tracking system, which can locate position of the sun.
