ESP32 Solar Tracker

A robust solar-panel controller designed around real field use: angle feedback, autonomous tracking, wind parking, local web control, recovery behavior, and Home Assistant integration.

See how the tracker responds

The public demo lets visitors move through the day, change tracking modes, adjust wind speed, and watch a simulated panel respond. It is completely disconnected from real hardware.

Interactive demo: Test Auto Sun, Local Angle, Park Flat, motor enable/disable, and the 40 mph wind-park behavior without controlling a physical tracker.

Tracking

Follow the requested panel angle with configurable error thresholds and motor protection.

Safety

Wind-safe parking, motor timeout, endpoint protection, and movement diagnostics.

Offline operation

Local time and location settings help keep the controller useful when Home Assistant is unavailable.
