Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/145184
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A solar tracking system is disclosed, the system comprising: a plurality of light sensors (102) arranged at an angular displacement to a light sensitive upper surface of a solar collecting device (100) fixed on a support structure, and a processor equipped with a software program for translating outputs of the light sensors (102) into activations of actuators (106) to move the light sensitive upper surface of the solar collecting device (100) in response to sun movements through moving the support structure.
