Title: Dual Axis Solar Tracking System

Abstract:

In this project, we introduce a small-scale Dual Axis Solar Tracking System (DASTS) enhanced with
machine learning (ML) algorithms, focusing on optimization and cloud-based data visualization.

Our DASTS incorporates dual axis tracking and ML algorithms to adjust panel angles based on real-time
solar conditions and act as a redundant backup system, maximizing energy capture. We explore the
efficiency gains compared to static systems.

Moreover, we address DASTS optimization and management, implementing ML algorithms for

calibration, fault detection, redundancy, and maintenance scheduling. These techniques maintain system
efficiency.

To enhance data presentation, we utilize a cloud service provider and a data visualization library,
allowing users to access real-time and historical data remotely, making informed decisions about system
performance.

Abstract:

In this project, we introduce a small-scale Dual Axis Solar Tracking System (DASTS) enhanced with
machine learning (ML) algorithms, focusing on optimization, obstacle detection, and cloud-based data
visualization.

Our DASTS incorporates dual axis tracking and ML algorithms to adjust panel angles based on real-time
solar conditions, acting as a redundant backup system while also ensuring efficient energy capture. One
key addition to our system is the integration of an obstacle detection system using ML models, which
enables the DASTS to detect and maneuver away from obstacles, thus eliminating shading and further
enhancing energy capture.

We explore the efficiency gains of our enhanced DASTS compared to static systems, showcasing its ability
to adapt and respond to environmental challenges.
Moreover, we address DASTS optimization and management, implementing ML algorithms for
calibration, fault detection, redundancy, and maintenance scheduling. These techniques not only
improve energy capture but also maintain system efficiency by proactively identifying and mitigating
issues.

To enhance data presentation and user accessibility, we utilize a cloud service provider and a data
visualization library. This setup allows users to access real-time and historical data remotely, making
informed decisions about system performance, obstacle avoidance, and overall energy optimization.
