SENSOR DEVICE AND DEVICE FOR CONVERTING SUNLIGHT INTO ANOTHER FORM OF ENERGY

摘要

The invention relates to a sensor device (2) for capturing the reflected sunlight from a plurality of movable mirrors (1, 1', 1'') of a device for converting sunlight into another form of energy, wherein by means of a tracking device (4) the mirrors (1, 1', 1'') track the position of the sun so that said mirrors jointly reflect the sunlight onto a converter device (3) which converts the sunlight into the other form of energy. The invention further relates to a device for converting sunlight into another form of energy. According to the invention, for each of the mirrors (1, 1', 1'') the sensor device (2) has a first and a second sensor aperture (2b, 2c, 2b', 2c', 2b'', 2c'') associated with said mirrors (1, 1', 1'') and a respective light-sensitive sensor (2d) recessed in said aperture.
