Mobile Charging using Solar Tracking System

The use of solar energy has gained significant attention due to its ability to provide a sustainable and clean source of power. Solar tracker is a device which is used to collect the solar energy emitted by the sun. Solar tracking system is a device that follows the sun's movement throughout the day to ensure maximum exposure to sunlight. The system comprises a solar panel, servo motor and rechargeable batteries. The solar panel is used to convert the sun's energy into electrical energy, which is then stored in the rechargeable batteries. This was achieved using an Arduino UNO that controls the position of the solar panel based on the sunlight intensity. The Arduino UNO receives information on the sun's position using two Light dependent Resistors (LDRs), and then adjusts the solar panel accordingly. The energy stored in the rechargeable batteries is used to charge a mobile. To achieve this, 5V Boost Converter is used. The use of a solar tracking system for mobile charging is a viable option for providing a sustainable and clean source of power. It is an efficient way to charge mobile devices using solar energy, especially in areas where access to electricity is limited
