System (Proposal Phase)
The design for the Team SOLAREADY solar tracker will consist of a linear actuator to move the solar panel into the correct position to recieve maximum sunlight throught the day.
The frame of the desgn built from high quality steel alows the system to handle any climate around the world.
Using a microcontroller and light sensors the system can detect the maximum amount of energy attainable for the system. The electronics for the system are enclosed in a wetherproof box to also handle many climates.
As Team SOLAREADY has continued to build and implement this design a bench scale model can be seen by cliking the link below to "Testing and building."
