This Solar Tracker is a revolutionary product in the field of mobile solar technology.
It is an intelligent solar system which is steered by GPS and follows the position of the sun all day long.
This Solar Tracker is fitted out with a 100 Watt solar module and maximizes energy absorption because of its optimal direction towards the sun.
On average it produces the energy output that would be obtained from 3 fixed, flat-mounted panels.
This Solar Tracking System saves space on the vehicles roof and is user-friendly with simple remote- control operation.
Why GPS?
GPS (Global Positioning System) is most often used in conjunction with a navigation system.
So what does a solar system have to do with a navigation system? Nothing at all.
GPS delivers data only giving the exact geographical position of the user, the date and the time of day.
Thanks to this information, the system knows precisely both where the user is and the time of day.
The exact position of the sun can be calculated and the solar cells can be positioned directly facing the sun to obtain maximum energy absorption,
even in cloudy weather
The complete Solar Tracking System:
Motor- operated 12-Volt turntable with a 100 Watt solar panel, remote control unit, mounting plate, leads and cables.
Performance details:
- Intelligent solar system with 100 Watt solar module,
which fully- automatically follows the sun
all day.
- independent opening and closing at sunrise
and sunset.
- Independent closing upon vehicle ignition.
- GPS steering (tracking) with data transfer of the date, time of day, sun position and location of the vehicle
provides for the optimal positioning towards the sun
and thereby delivers constant and highest possible
energy gain.
- Absorption benefits: the sun-tracking 100 Watt Solar
module replaces on average 3 flat, fixed panels on the
roof of the vehicle.
- Space saving: only one module needed on the roof
of the vehicle.
- Convenience: user-friendly press-button operation
and extended mobility
- the adjusting intervall is all 30 minuntes
- in the evening at set of sun, the Solar Tracker
retract automatically and next day in the morning,
the Tracker raise automatically again.
- there is a Emergency wire where need connect
with the Engine Ignition Switch. So if you start the
Engine, the Tracker will retract automatically.
This Solar Tracking System represents a revolution
in the field of mobile solar technology.
A 100 Watt solar panel positioned on the top of
a compact motorised turntable and using
GPS tracking technology delivers the electricity
that would be obtained on average from 3 panels
installed flat on the roof of the vehicle.
The energy advantage can be up to 7 times in winter months when the sun stands flatter on the horizon
and flat panels only absorb minimal energy.

@TheMontanafreeman But if someone was capable of building one from a regular flat panel and not have to pay someone else... do you have references for the percentages you mentioned?

Great! Please take a look at my homemade trackers, at a low cost, they can carry a 1kilowatt array (or more).

The difference between a fixed, tilted PV solar module and one that tracks is about 12% in the winter and near 40% in the summer. Comparing a PV module mounted flat versus tracking, during the winter solstice you will gain about 60% more production by tracking. The cost of tracking is usually 500% more than the cost of simply adding another PV module and that does not include the future repair costs.
With PV solar modules at an al time low price, it makes no sense to purchase a tracker.

how many watt is that panel on that tracker?

Nice but the KISS is best.
All those motors and gizmos is just something to go wrong imo.
