We intend to bridge the gap betweenclassroom knowledge and practical application. By designing, programming, andtroubleshooting a real-world system, students gain a deeper understanding of solar energytechnology, sustainability, and problem-solving methods.Several projects exist that incorporate solar tracking at various levels of complexity. Single-axis trackers, for example, are relatively straightforward to build and maintain
