Position control using wifi from a smartphone sounds too good to be true? Do it with MKR1000. Things used in this project Hardware components Arduino MKR1000 × 1 Hand tools and fabrication machines 3D Printer (generic) Story Many position control use steppers because they are easy to deal with and are cheap. RC servos are …

This is a simple solar tracker which automatically orients itself towards the sun or any bright source of light like the sun .If you place solar panels on this robot it can increase their productivity by 90 to 95 %. At first creating a solar tracking robot may sound complicated but it quite quickly becomes …
In this article we are going to make a Solar Panel Tracker using Arduino, in which we will use two LDRs (Light dependent resistor) to sense the light and a servo motor to automatically rotate the solar panel in the direction of the sun light. Advantage of this project is that Solar panel will always follow …
Overview: The solar tracking device is designed to ensure that a flat panel with a solar cell is constantly aligned with the movement of the sun across the sky. It utilizes two light dependent resistors (LDRs) positioned on opposite sides of a fin to measure the light levels. By comparing the readings from the LDRs, …
Hi, First of all, my English is not perfect =) I’ve seen many projects with Arduino that describes how to control 2 servo’s with a joystick or use a lcd screen. All of the projects that i have seen are all seperate things. So i decided to make a short Instructable of these things combined. …
I’m going to show you how to use your Arduino to control up to 12 servos at once with minimal jitter. Using a simple serial interface you can control the position of up to 12 servo channels. Up to 10 snapshot positions can be saved and played back at any time. Start up values for …
In this instructable, I am going to show you what a servo motor is, how to use it, and ideas for starting projects using it. I used arduino to control my servo, I added how to use a 555 in some of the later steps. Step 1: What is a Servo motor If you are …
So there I was, browsing eBay, looking for some cheap deals on Atmel chips when i came across a pair of ATTiny13 chips for £2.50. I just had to have them! After all, how hard can it be? I needed a small chip to read servo signals from a hobby RC Receiver and control a …

What is a solar tracker? A solar tracker can increase the efficiency of a solar panel by up to 100%! It does this by always keeping the panel perpendicular to the incoming rays of sunlight. here’s an equation to prove this: P = AW sin θ P = power generated by the solar panel A …
What is does: It searches for the brightest light source like the sun. Step 1: How it works How it works: I’d made a sensor of 4 LDRs with sheets between them The withe stips are the LDRs When the stick on top is righted to the sun or the brightest point the four LDRs …
