The ultimate objective of this project is to investigate which one is better between static solar panel and solar tracker. This project is divided into two stages, which are hardware and software development. In hardware development, five light dependent resistors (LDR) were used to capture the maximum light source from the sun. Two servo motors also were used to move the solar panel at maximum light source location sensed by the LDRs. While for the software part, the code was constructed by using C programming language and targeted to the Arduino UNO controller. 2013 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/84515/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/84515/1/84515.pdf text en public degree Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Faculty of Electrical Engineering Othman, Zulkifli
