Overview
MASS sensor includes one accelerometer, one magnetometer, and one sun sensor to measure angle of sunray, DNI solar radiation and azimuth and elevation position of the device. This information is very useful to develop solar tracking controllers, with no other devices. Its characteristics make it a suitable tool for high accurate sun-tracking and positioning systems, with low power consumption and high reliability. MASS sensor has been designed with a unique and novel own technology based on MEMS fabrication processes to achieve high integrated sensing structures at low cost.
