These robot is in charge of making the solar panel always face the light. It's fully automatic and also offers the possibility to control it through a phone app.

It also has a LCD to display voltage and you can also see it in the app.

These robot was designed and made for a Engineering contest and it came second in the category of best design.

I have uploaded the code for regular use and the code for bluetooth use, for the bluetooth one you have to install the .apk and allow the app to access local devices so it can connect to the bluetooth module. For the app you first need to unzip the .zip file
