Dual-axis solar tracker based on UV, MEMS sensors

Researchers have designed a new tracking system that utilizes an arithmetic optimization-based PID controller. The proposed tracker uses two different sensor types - a UV sensor and a micro-electromechanical solar (MEMS) sensor. The first one calculates the intensity of UV radiation received from the sun, and the second one forecasts the sun's path across the sky. An Indian-Chinese research team has developed a novel dual-axis solar tracking system based on sensors and a controller module. "In this work, an attempt was made to design and implement a single tracking motor with dual axis for a ...
