A Guide to Building Your Own Single-Axis Solar Tracking System

Introductions of single axis solar tracker: A solar tracker system that tracks sunlight based on its intensity is a popular Arduino project. It’s categorized into two main types: the single-axis solar tracker and the dual-axis solar tracker. The single-axis solar tracker operates with a single motor, allowing movement along two dimensions. Conversely, the dual-axis tracker […]

SOLAR INTEGRATED ULP FEATHER NEEDS NO BATTERIES1

SOLAR INTEGRATED ULP FEATHER NEEDS NO BATTERIES

Long battery-life and Low power consumption are usually top on the list of requirements for most hardware devices these days, as the weariness of having to constantly charge a device continues to have significant effect on customers’ choice. Asides from consumer applications, another reason fueling this demand is the growth in the deployment of IoT

SCIENTISTS DEVELOP SAFER LEAD BASED PEROVSKITE SOLAR CELL STRUCTURE

SCIENTISTS DEVELOP SAFER LEAD-BASED PEROVSKITE SOLAR CELL STRUCTURE

Researchers at Northern Illinois University and the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in Golden, Colorado, reported in the journal Nature on a potential breakthrough in the development of hybrid perovskite solar cells. Considered rising stars in the field of solar energy, perovskite solar cells convert light into electricity. They’re potentially cheaper and simpler to produce than

AMBIENT HUMIDITY ENERGY HARVESTERS COULD COMPETE WITH SOLAR CELLS

AMBIENT HUMIDITY ENERGY HARVESTERS COULD COMPETE WITH SOLAR CELLS

Leveraging the natural adsorption–desorption exchange of water molecules from ambient air at the interface of a nanoporous mesh of protein nanowires, a team of researchers from the University of Massachusetts has demonstrated a durable form of energy harvesting that could potentially compete with solar cells on volumetric power density. By Julien Happich @ eenewseurope.com Publishing their

Arduino Solar Garden Light

Intelligent Solar Garden Light using an Arduino- Part 1

I bought a solar powered garden light. The solar panel charges the batteries and when it gets dark the lights (3x LEDs) turn on until it either gets lights again or the batteries run out. It has a small amount of intelligence (turns on when dark off when light) but not enough! Time for some
