Most of the current solar energy systems use fixed solar panels that are oriented toward one direction. In this paper, we present the initial stages of an ongoing project that considers absorbing maximum solar energy by tracking the sun’s direction. This will maximize the produced electricity and enhance system efficiency. The proposed architecture consists of hardware and software aimed at sensing maximum illumination based on a photovoltaic panel controlled by a servomotor. This solar tracking system is remotely managed by a wireless communication system based on Wi-Fi technology. This is accomplished by two user interfaces that offer different parameter readings and various statistical analyses. The obtained results are encouraging and promising and furnish a platform for future applications in the field of solar energy generation.
