Download Project Document/Synopsis
The designed project measures different solar cell parameters like light intensity, voltage, current and temperature by using multiple sensor data acquisition. The project uses a solar panel to monitor sunlight and Arduino board which has ATmega family microcontroller attached to it. The project requires an LDR sensor for measuring light intensity, a voltage divider to measure voltage and a temperature sensor to measure the temperature. These measurements are then displayed by the microcontroller to a LCD screen. Thus this system allows user to effectively monitor solar parameters using this system.
