This is a solar panel mounted to a unipolar stepper motor. The motor is driven via an Arduino UNO that I coded, and a simple driver board with 4 IRF510s. I'm aware that the Arduino has trouble saturating the transistors and that the device uses more power than it makes for itself, but it's a fun project nonetheless.
