A solar power embedded computing platform is a type of computing system that utilizes solar energy as its primary power source. This platform typically consists of embedded computing hardware, such as ARM computers or microcontrollers, integrated with solar panels or other solar energy harvesting devices. The solar panels convert sunlight into electrical energy, which is then stored in batteries or capacitors to power the computing platform. These platforms are designed for applications where access to grid power is limited or unavailable, such as remote monitoring, environmental sensing, agricultural automation, or off-grid installations. They often incorporate power management systems to efficiently utilize solar energy and ensure continuous operation even under varying environmental conditions. This project proposes to a solar power embedded computing platform. In this case, our project reaelizes the following functions:
· A selection and comparing of the design components that supports the largest throughput (TOPS) per power (W).
· Mechanical frame design to support the outdoor applications (i.e., water proof and heat dissipation).
· Linux Kernel module design to support the low battery warnings.
