In this paper, a closed-loop single-axis solar tracking system is designed and
implemented using a simple and efficient method. The tracking method is performed
on the basis of a PLC programmable controller operating based on receiving a
controlled feedback. In this tracker, four LDR optical resistance sensors are used to
detect the position of the sun, utilizing a stepper motor to move the tracking system
from east to west. Solar trackers have a critical role in solar thermal collection and
change their efficiency from zero to 100%.
