Students of Baku Engineering University (BEU) have developed a device called "Robotic Sunflower" that tracks the movement of the sun's rays. This device has several advantages in terms of making more efficient use of existing solar panels. The most important of them is that the prepared device allows obtaining more alternative energy by moving in the direction of the sun.

The main goal of the project, aimed at solving the problems of energy shortage observed in the world, is to automatically produce energy with a tracking system that will adapt the solar panels. Because it moves parallel to the movement of the sun during the day, the energy obtained by the "Robotic Sunflower" is more than the energy obtained from a normal solar panel.

The system monitors the maximum intensity of light to make maximum use of solar energy. As the light intensity decreases over time, the system automatically changes direction to achieve maximum light intensity. As a result, it gets more energy than a normal solar panel.

The device developed by Rafig Shukurov and Ali Khalilov, majoring in computer engineering at the Faculty of Engineering under the guidance of the senior lecturer of the university Fakhranda Mammadova, is very relevant for residential houses, enterprises and offices that use solar energy as an alternative energy source. The system can be applied for alternative electricity production in residential areas, especially for non-critical and low-power devices
