14. DUAL AXIS SOLAR TRACKING SYSTEM

By constantly monitoring the sun's location, the Dual Axis Solar Tracking System with Arduino is a clever and effective way to optimize solar energy production. One of th e most plentiful and sustainable energy sources accessible today is solar energy. Nevertheless, because traditional solar panels are set at a specific angle, their capacity to effectively absorb sunlight throughout the day is limited. Fixed solar panels re ceive less sunlight for a large part of the day because to the sun's seasonal variations in elevation and movement from east to west. In order to get over this restriction, a dual axis solar tracking system was created, which automatically modifies the sol ar panel's position in two directions to maximize exposure to sunlight. The solar panel in this system travels along two axes: vertical (elevation) and horizontal (azimuth). The solar panel can follow the sun's path from sunrise to sunset and adapt to seas onal variations thanks to its dual movement. The system measures the amount of sunshine by using light sensors like Light Dependent Resistors (LDRs). To detect the difference in light, these sensors are positioned at various points around the solar panel. The system identifies the sun's direction and modifies the display when one sensor detects more light than the others.
