Development of a low-cost sunphotometer tracking and data acquisition system

A low-cost sun tracking and data acquisition system for the SPO 2 and SP10 1 sun photometers were developed. The sun-tracking system has a 1-degree pointing error and was based on a mathematical algorithm that depends on the position of the observer and the time of observation. A virtual instrument...
