Abstract: The Solar Panel Tracking System project is designed to optimize the collection of solar energy by dynamically adjusting the orientation of a solar panel to follow the sun's movement throughout the day. This system employs a Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) sensor to detect variations in light intensity, ensuring that the solar panel consistently faces the direction of maximum sunlight. A servo motor is used to adjust the panel's angle based on the input from the LDR sensor, thereby maximizing the energy harnessed. This report provides a comprehensive overview of the project's design and implementation. It covers the selection and integration of key components, including the solar panel, LDR sensor, servo motor, and microcontroller (e.g., Arduino)
