Abstract

The paper mainly focuses on the automatic solar tracking system to maximize the utilization of
solar energy. This is a closed loop system. This system makes the uniform distribution of solar
radiation over the PV panel. A sensor unit that consists of photo sensor platform is designed
and used to find the accurate position of the sun. This system uses two DC gear motors for
driving the solar panel in north-south and east-west directions.
