Sumario: This work presents the design of a prototype solar tracker with two degrees of freedom, to improve the uptake of solar radiation that falls on a photovoltaic panel of 100 Watts. In order to carry out this design, a study was made regarding the types of solar trackers and the characteristics of the photovoltaic panels existing in the market and thus, the extra gain that could be obtained from a photovoltaic panel when exposed as long as possible to the place of maximum solar radiation. In this prototype of solar tracker, were used LDR sensors, the same ones that vary their resistance to the change of luminosity detected in the environment, this signal emitted by the sensors is captured and processed by a control module; which turns on the actuators, allowing the system to rotate and position the panel to the place where there is the greatest amount of light. Finally performance tests were performed, allowing to obtain the voltage data, delivered by the 100 W photovoltaic panel coupled to the solar tracker prototype, with these data tables were made in Excel and graphs of the voltage curve which showed an energy gain.
