Testing showed the dual-axis solar tracker generated 10.53 more watts of power compared to fixed and single-axis systems by continuously adjusting the panel's orientation to directly face the sun. The dual-axis design allows for higher energy output and flexibility to track the sun's movement across the sky.
Single AXIs Smart SOLAR TRACKING SYSTEM USING ARDUINOasadur babu
This document describes a single axis smart solar tracking system using an Arduino. The system uses two LDR sensors and a servo motor connected to an Arduino to track the sun and maximize energy collection from a photovoltaic panel. The LDR sensors detect light intensity and send readings to the Arduino, which controls the servo motor to adjust the panel's position accordingly. Testing showed the system successfully orients the panel toward a light source to improve efficiency over a stationary panel. In conclusion, the project demonstrated that LDR sensors and an Arduino can effectively track the sun's position with a simple, low-cost design.
Design of Arduino Based Solar Tracker for Renewable EnergyIRJET Journal
This document describes the design of an Arduino-based solar tracker to increase the efficiency of solar energy harvesting. A solar tracker moves a solar panel to follow the sun's movement and ensure the panel is optimally aligned. The designed system uses an Arduino Uno microcontroller along with light dependent resistors and servo motors to automatically rotate the solar panel east-west and adjust its angle to always face the sun. By continuously adjusting the panel's orientation, it can capture more solar energy throughout the day compared to a fixed panel. Dual-axis tracking is estimated to increase energy output by 40% but requires more complex hardware. The designed low-cost prototype demonstrates automatic solar tracking, though future work could expand it to dual-axis
This document describes a project to create a single axis solar tracking system using an Arduino. The system aims to maximize solar energy collection by automatically orienting a solar panel toward the sun from east to west. It uses an LDR sensor to detect light intensity, sends the information to an Arduino microcontroller which controls a servo motor to rotate the solar panel accordingly. Key components include an Arduino, servo motor, LDR sensor, resistor, and solar panel. The system allows for increased solar panel output and efficiency through continuous sunlight tracking.
IRJET- Dual Axis Solar Tracking System using ArduinoIRJET Journal
This document describes a dual-axis solar tracking system developed using Arduino that aims to maximize solar energy collection. It discusses how solar trackers can improve power gain by rotating panels to always face the sun's position. A dual-axis tracker is able to rotate in both horizontal and vertical directions, unlike single-axis trackers. The proposed system uses Arduino, light dependent resistors, motors, and a display to control panel rotation based on sun position. Experimental results show the dual-axis system improves efficiency by 30-45% compared to fixed and single-axis mounting.

A sensor that utilizes the piezoelectric effect, to measure changes in acceleration, strain, pressure, and force by converting them into electrical charge is called as a piezoelectric sensor. Piezo is a Greek word which means ‘press’ or ‘squeeze’. Piezoelectric effect causes the occurrence of electric dipole moments in solids due to the pressure applied to certain solid materials such as piezoelectric crystals, ceramics, bone, DNA, and some proteins that generates electric charge. This generated piezoelectricity is proportional to the pressure applied to the solid piezoelectric crystal materials and last the generated electic charge shoud be stored to the capacitor.
Mark Honeywell founded Honeywell in 1906 as a heating company called Honeywell Heating Specialty Company. In 1898, W.R. Sweatt bought out the remaining shares of the company and expanded it into new industries such as aerospace, home and building technologies, safety and production, and information technology. Today, Honeywell is an American multinational conglomerate that produces commercial and consumer products, engineering services, and aerospace systems used in applications like water tanks, security cameras, and nuclear bombs.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
