A solar tracker is a gadget that monitors the path of the solar. The panel in the case of two-axis trackers is positioned to monitor the maximum solar light orientation throughout the day by varying the tracker angles (both altitude and azimuth angles). Depending on these orientations, an electromechanical device that monitors the solar radiation on either dimensions and is controlled by a microcontroller was conceived and established for a period in Trichy, which is situated at 8.44 latitude in the North quarter. Following the activation of the intended platform’s manual monitoring scheme, the effectiveness of the photovoltaic screen was first evaluated in a set location, and then the solar module was regulated whilst monitoring the sun on orientation and sun elevation degrees, and the appropriate observations were collected. The control system was determined to be functional. When the measurement data was compared, it was determined that the two-axes solar-tracking system gathered more energy than the stationary system.
