Abstract
In a burgeoning nation such as ours, the energy crisis stands as a paramount challenge, characterized by a glaring disparity between energy supply and demand. Within the realm of renewable energy solutions, solar power emerges as a particularly potent resource, holding the potential to significantly alleviate this pressing issue. The present study undertakes a comprehensive examination of the execution of a dual-axis system built on a microcontroller platform sun based following framework. Sun based vitality, owing to its abundance and eco-friendliness, is currently experiencing rapid adoption. Deploying solar panels and optimizing their orientation for maximal solar exposure stands out as a straightforward, expedient, cost-effective, and sustainable approach to energy generation. The dual-axis solar tracker, equipped with integrated sensors, dynamically adjusts its position to track the sun, leveraging a combination of mechanical and electronic components. Comparative studies reveal that while a single-axis solar tracker offers a mere 8–10% enhancement over stationary panels, dual-axis trackers boast an even more impressive 10–15% increase in effectiveness.
