widespread adoption of photovoltaic technology are installation costs‚ low efficiency and the limited number of peak hours (maximum amount of sunlight absorbed). In order to lift these barriers‚ current solar panels should have tracking systems added to them. With such a system‚ a solar panel could sense where the direction of sunlight is coming from‚ continually track it throughout the day with two-axis of movement‚ and do so autonomously (with little to no maintenance). The amount of energy produced
