Directable Mirror - Computer

A PC with some array control software. The computer is only used to set up the array. For arrays with only one target the computer is needed only during callibration.

Large installations with more than one target can be feedback controlled via the computer. Temperature sensors on a target linked to the computer are read by software which redirects elements of the array as necessary to the target. In such a system there should always be a 'sink' target to which all excess can be directed.

This directable mirror panel is the only solar concentrator suitable for such demand driven applications.
