In order to be a part of the "green technology" revolution, a goal was established to design and create an optimized device that would capture, store, and eventually distribute solar energy. A concentrator is attached in order to focus a wide area of light on a small area of solar panels. The device tracks the path of the sun so that the sun's rays are always orthogonal to the solar panels, thus maximizing the energy captured. A microcontroller "conducts the symphony" of the peripheral devices that work in tandem; these devices include a display, compass, photoresistors, motors, and battery charging. Once charged, the energy stored in the battery is capable of powering and charging a small electronic device such as a cell phone or an iPod®. The device was also designed to be structurally stable and relatively lightweight such that it may be considered portable.
