A senior design project for aerospace/mechanical engineers. The solar tracking array prototype consists of three phototransistors mounted into a moveable wooden panel and a motorized hinge mounted onto a mockup of the Akoya nanosatellite.
When turned on, the motor drives the mock solar panel through a full arc, recording the greatest input to the phototransistors, then retraces the arc until its readings match that point again.
