This paper provides a detailed literature review and highlights some key advancements and challenges associated with state-of-the-art automatic solar tracking systems. An automatic solar tracking system is an approach for optimizing the generation of solar power and modifying the angles and direction of a solar panel by considering changes in the position and path of the sun. The power generated by a PV cell is directly proportional to the solar irradiance it. For example, solar trackers follow the sun's path to increase the generation capacity of photovoltaic plants. However, several factors need consideration to further optimize this process. Important variables include the distance between panels, surface reflectivity, bifacial panels, and climate.

An automatic solar tracking system (STS) is an emerging technology that rotates a solar panel or solar concentrator to various positions throughout the day by monitoring the current position and path of the sun. The performance status of an automatic solar tracking system depends on various factors. This study focuses on developing a Solar Tracking System using ESP866 microcontrollers and Light Dependent Resistors (LDRs) to enhance the efficiency of solar panels. This adjustment minimizes light reflection, allowing the panels to capture more solar energy. A smaller angle of incidence results in increased energy production by a solar PV panel. Components of a solar. ar tracking system is required. It discusses two primary types: single-axis and dual-axis trackers. Single-axis trackers follow the sun's daily east-to-west movement, significantly. To overcome this limitation, engineers and researchers have developed solar tracking systems, which automatically adjust the position of solar panels to follow the sun's path in real time.
