Solar Tracking System

The book delves into the design and construction of a solar tracking system prototype with single-axis freedom, emphasizing the efficiency of solar energy production. It explains how the system utilizes a NodeMcu microcontroller and LDR sensors to orient the solar panel for optimal sun exposure. By adjusting the panel's position based on sunlight detection, the system maximizes energy capture. The discussion highlights the advantages of using a DC motor for its simplicity, high torque, and appropriate speed for this application, despite the initial installation costs.
