The Sun F(ol)lower had an upgrade: It has a new, dedicated board. It simplifies the cabling a lot, and makes it quicker to (dis)assemble. As is, this board can be used as a prototyping board for reading 4 sensors (analogic input) of 10kOhm (to complete the voltage divider) and control 2 digital outputs. What's next: Now that the main board is up and running, the project can move to the next stage: -Improving the algorithm for light sensitivity in various light conditions; -Add a solar panel; -Redesign the structure to hold the servo motors, solar pannel, sensors and all the components.

A quick prototyping platform with two 360º digital servo motors, 4 LDR's and a two axis joystick. The system tracks a strong source of light and the sensitivity to which it responds can be adjusted.
