In this project the particle photon is interfaced with the voltage output pin of the solar panel lm 35 temperature sensor and ldr sensor to monitor the power output temperature and the incident light intensity respectively.
Photon report on solar panels.
Primarily using spectrolab xtj prime solar cells.
Solar panel solutions are some of the most flown in history with an unparalleled track record in orbit.
The test series quickly became the world s largest of its kind.
A solar panel is made up of several individual cells each with a positive and a negative layer which create an electric field thus the light with which we see and are warmed is made of photons.
Photon solar power inc.
The project is designed to supervise solar photovoltaic power generation to enhance the performance monitoring and maintenance of the solar plant.
As you might imagine photons are not something that is seen by the human eye.
In the meantime results are available for around 200 different module types for the period up to june 2015.
The photon range is the result of this heritage combining decades of aggregated on orbit flight time and the latest in mechanical design techniques.
The aim of the project is to improve the efficiency of solar panels.
The photon laboratory began measuring the yield of solar modules already in 2004.
But this video might help your pv vision.
