Senior Design Project Idea Block Diagram

This solar tree station isn't like your typical solar tree.  The redesigned silhouette and all-angle sun capturing solar panels will provide optimum energy gained from this planet's largest natural resource.  This structure can be used for residential or business purposes.  The multitude of rotating solar panels will convert the power of the sun to power we can use, and store it to a battery or battery charging station.  The tree will use a microprocessor that will control the motors to turn the leaves and control the optional safety lockbox (business purpose only).

 

Details:

• Specific design to get all angles of sun exposure

• Rotating “leafs”

• Power is saved to power bank / generator type device.

• Design an MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) system to determine the maximum power generating point.

• DC converter to manage the output voltage

• Storage box to hold personal items - business option only not residential
