dc.description.abstract	The crucial purpose of our systematic experimental technique is to concentrate the solar radiation on the solar panel i.e. to construct a solar tracker system which will be capable of converting maximum sun light to electrical energy in accordance with the direction of the sun. Finally our Create a non-soldering, inexpensive, "smart" computer controlled, dual axis tracker for school and home use.	en_US
