In this paper, mechanism design for solar trackers is discussed in terms of serial and parallel architectures that are analyzed to characterize the feasible performance of mechanism solutions that can fully track the sun during its diurnal east-to-west and seasonal north-south motions. Their main operational characteristics are discussed as design criteria and used to compare existing solutions. New mechanism designs are outlined as examples of the proposed guidelines.

Their main operational characteristics are discussed as design criteria and used to compare existing solutions.
