Transcript Creating an Optimal Opponent for Checkers

Solar Power Inverter – AC to DC
A Presentation By
John, Rich, & Tim
Introduction with Tim
 Purpose: to create a Solar Power
Inverter that converts DC power
(from the panel) into AC power (used
in homes 120v @ 60Hz).
 Applications: Alternate power in
green homes, or to power appliances.
Quick Overview Of How The System
Works with Rich
 Looking for a viable alternative source of energy? Look no
further, just look to the sky.
 The sun isn’t going anywhere soon, so we can use it as a viable
source of energy.
 Pros of Solar Power = it’s renewable, simple and clean, easy to carry and
easy to setup, even a child can do it.
 How does it work you ask? Things you’ll need….

Q&A with US
 Upon completion of the project we
learned more about how an inverter
is an integral component in the solar
power system.
 Recap what it does briefly?
 Sun to solar panel, to inverter to light
bulb?
 Share issues and troubles during
project?
