Background * Three solar energy * Solar electric (太阳电能): convert the sun’s energy into electricity * Solar thermal (太阳热能): used the sun for heating or cooling * Concentrating solar: mixed both above as it used small optical mirrors to collect solar energy and convert the sunlight to heat. The heat was then applied to a liquid and gas to turn a turbine‚ thereby creating electricity * Grid-tied * Solar electric system that were connected to an electricity utility

Solar seeker: In this project we design a solar seeker to follow a sun. solar seeker follow the sun and if the sensor attach on the sensor a sense a sun then solar seeker is stop automatically. Now after some time sun move from its position‚ then again seeker sensor sense the light and move the motor very slowly. If the sensor sense the signal then automatically stop the seeker . Movement of the seeker is restricted from left to right for limited area. To control the left and right limit
