Designing of a Mobile Robot Using Photovoltaic Cells

Article Preview

Abstract:

The robots operate in a specific environment, the characteristics of which may remain constant or variable over time. While battery technology is of great interest for mobile robots, but it is not reliable in the time, there are several strategies for the storage of energy, as well as strategies for harvesting energy from the environment in various ways and energy management using sophisticated control techniques to improve power supply costs. One of these strategies is to use solar energy to power mobile robots. The solar cells appearance is due to the need to supply power spacecraft since not require maintenance for a period of time.
