Abstract
This paper presents all the stages of development of a solar tracker for a photovoltaic panel. The system was made with a microcontroller which was design as an embedded control. It has a data base of the angles of orientation horizontal axle, therefore it has no sensor inlet signal and it function as an open loop control system. Combined of above mention characteristics in one the tracker system is a new technique of the active type. It is also a rotational robot of 1 degree of freedom.
