Abstract
In this paper, LabVEW is used to monitor the real-time data of solar cell, implement solar tracking and damage detection using LabVIEW. In this article, a solar panel, an Arduino UNO board, a voltage (0-25V) sensor, LD R, a temperature sensor (LM35) and a servo motor are used. The Solar panel is connected to a voltage sensor, which measures up to 25 V by reducing the input voltage by a factor of 5, a LDR, where the resistance depends on the light intensity. The resistance is then converted into voltage by using a voltage divider circuit. The resulting voltage is then measured by Arduino and the voltage is then converted into lux in LabVEW and is displayed on LabVEW’s front panel. The solar panel is mounted on a servo motor, which rotates the panel based on the light intensity detected by LDR The servo motor is controlled by sending PWM wave. The duty cycle of input PWM wave determines the angle of servo motor’s shaft. By varying the duty cycle of PWM wave, the servo motor’s shaft can be moved to the required angle.
