Solar Tracker V2 is made made of laser cut wood, a whole bunch of screws, an Arduino Uno, two 9G sized Servos, and a custom Arduino shield. Get kits and parts from us or use our open source files to make your own.
Seriously, this is 100% Open Source. The code, laser cut files, and PCB files can be found below. Buying kits from us helps us buy equipment, go to teaching conferences, and spend more time making Open Source Projects.
A full detailed write up can be found at browndoggadgets.dozuki.com/Gu...

Hello, I wanted to know if it is possible to know how much energy is produced by the panel, like can you have a number on your computer for example ?
@lolaloliepop 3 жыл бұрын
oh finally this is so helpful. I plan on making one to make a heliostat for my dark apartment....looks like even just using this design I could somehow just strap a mirror to it where it doesn't fully block the panel
@BrownDogGadgets 3 жыл бұрын
Just keep in mind that for a heliostat, you need to move HALF the distance of tracking the sun, so that the reflection becomes a fixed location (your window!) One small tweak to the code should be all it takes!

Hello Danielle, That is my plan too. but it is extremely hard to find s.o. who has accomplished to do it with easy to follow steps. Are you planning to document your process? If so would you be willing to share it with the community? Maybe I can follow your footsteps into the project
@byzdgn 3 жыл бұрын
@@BrownDogGadgets thnks for the informative video. Please share if you have any other tips on heliostats. I worry that it will be challenging to find the required torque power to push the mirrors. any cervo suggestion?

Hello! Can you please tell me which servo motors are you using? Will the sg90 tower be enough?

It's best to use servos with metal gears like we include in our kit.

Can you explain this code to me? // int dtime = analogRead(4)/20; // read potentiometers // int tol = analogRead(5)/4; int dtime = 10; int tol = 50; This is the code I took from you. I don't understand much about this part why tol is 50? aint dtime=analogRead(4)/20; Why is 20? Looking forward to your early feedback Thank!!!

whether this design can lead automatically to the sunrise the next day ?? because this design will stop at sunset.
@BrownDogGadgets 3 жыл бұрын
This design would stop at sunset. The next morning, the tracker would point towards the sun once it rises. This is very similar to how many large commercial solar trackers work.
