Sun Tracker

High-Level Project Summary

We developed the Sun Tracker app in which you can find information about your solar panels and sunlight, thus making up for the lack of objective information that is easy to understand by the general public. The project is extremely important for everyone to know about the sun and its solar plates since no other app or website shows data aimed at this audience like our app.

Detailed Project Description

Sun Tracker is an application that provides objective information related to sunlight such as radiation intensity, each person's solar plates such as plate performance, and natural aspects such as humidity. The project proposes a life with more information to our daily lives.

With Sun Tracker, it will be easier to understand how to use the correct form and how to handle without harming your solar board. With it, we hope that consumers can understand and use their solar panels and the app in a simple and practical way.

Our app brings as main tool NASA POWER information in an objective and easy to understand way, and several other tools that helped the reader with any kind of doubts regarding your solar plate or the weather.

NASA POWER: https://power.larc.nasa.gov/

We use it to obtain information about meteorology and simplify the data generated by the site.

Hackathon Journey

Our experience was magnificent, mainly because it was the first time we participated in an event of this level. We left with many lessons learned, networking, teamwork, pitch. We think our biggest inspiration was the challenge and "falling in love" with the problem. During the entire creation process, we seek an empathetic look, feeling the pain that the problem we are facing causes.

We also always try to remain calm during times of pressure and in this way we are able to face the obstacles during this journey.

We are immensely grateful to the incredible professor Michel Marchi, who provided us with this fantastic experience, to the organizers of the event Takaki, Miro Leite and Samanta Lopes, and to all the mentors.
