You may also have wondered that, a solar panel placed on the roofs, may become more efficient and effective; if it keeps readjusting its face to the Sun; so that its front always points towards the Sun. Just as a Sunflower does.

Qbotix, a Menlo Park, Calif. company has introduced a new robotic tracking system that mechanically pivots solar panels towards the Sun, saving energy and money. Making them upto 40 percent more effective.

Although the Qbotix may have specialised coding to accomplish the product; the "Robots pivot Solar Panels" is a lesson innovation. Many convincing and useful innovations have very simple concept at their foundation. If you can think different or take examples from your surrounding you can be an innovator.
