This auction is for a solar panel positioning platform and solar panel that was created for an Electrical Engineering senior design project.  This project design is a dual-axis tracking system that periodically adjusts the azimuth and elevation of the panel to maximize energy collection throughout the day, increasing energy production over traditional, fixed solar photovoltaic panel installation. This design won the schools competition and then went on to win the 2013 Myron Zucker international design competition.  The auction will also include code that was created for the project and the final project paper and supporting documentation.  The microcontroller used for this project is the Arduino Mega. A video of the platform can be seen on YouTube @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHUIp7bUbdA Introduction: While once a rare sight, solar panels are now commonly found on roadside signs, homes, businesses, and industrial settings.  Major improvements in solar panel manufacturing, lower materials cost, and government incentives have made solar technology a viable energy solution for consumers and businesses seeking to reduce their carbon footprint.  Most solar panel installations however utilize sub-optimal static positions; the panel is aimed due south (in the Northern Hemisphere) with a few degrees of elevation.  While the static mounting technique is generally acceptable, a dynamic installation where the solar panel tracks the sun increases total energy collection.  This project designs a dual-axis tracking system that periodically adjusts the azimuth and elevation of the panel to maximize energy collection throughout the day, increasing energy production over traditional, fixed solar photovoltaic panel installation.
