摘要

The current paper reflects on the creation of a solar tracking prototype based on an Arduino that is going to optimize solar energy harvesting. The system auto-tracks the path of the sun to catch the maximum amount of light, which is stored in a rechargeable battery and converted to alternating current (AC) and used in the home. It is focused on responsive performance, and the elements of fault detection and correction in real-time are included to guarantee stable and reliable operation. The system is also resilient to changing weather, temperature and mechanical loads and this guarantees reliable performance across different deployment conditions, hence the suitability of the system to different environments.
