Design of Vehicle-Mounted Solar Photovoltaic Panels System that Change Orientation with the Light

Abstract

Along with the lack gradually of fossil energy,people began to pay attention to the using of solar energy that easy to obtain and no pollution. Today,a lot of vehicle-mounted systems have begin to use solar photovoltaic panels.But with the driving of vehicle, photovoltaic panels often can’t face to the sun ,unable to get enough direct sunlight. In order to change the fact,writer designed a new system.In this system, we use ambient light detection module and MCU to locate the sun,then MCU controls two motors to make the photovoltaic panel change its orientation,so vehicle-mounted solar photovoltaic panel can change orientation automatically with the light.
