To address the energy loss caused by insufficient sun-tracking accuracy in PV systems, researchers have developed a hybrid algorithm dual-axis solar tracking system (DASTS) that integrates GPS positioning and light-dependent resistors (LDRs). Through innovative LDR design and algorithm optimization, the tracking error has been reduced to 1.8°, and experimental results show a 38.2% increase in power generation compared to fixed systems.

The micro solar cell harvests energy from ambient light, but its output drops sharply indoors or at night. To solve this, the LED patch – which attaches comfortably to the skin – emits red light (670 nm) that penetrates deeply through tissue, delivering reliable optical power to the subcutaneous solar cell. This hybrid approach ensures continuous, daylight‑independent energy supply.
