This project has to optimize the brightness rate of a place.
|
|
A photo-resistor is connected to an _Arduino_ which decides when the parasol has to go up, or go down.
|
|
This action depends on the wind and the luminosity : when wind rate is `LOW` and brightness too `HIGH`, the motor is launched and the status of the parasol changes.
|
|
There is two limit switches sending a `HIGH` state when pressed.
|
|
They stop the progression of the parasol.
