| Title: | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR LIGHT RAY CONCENTRATION | |||||||||||||||
| Abstract: | Systems and techniques for light ray concentration. In one aspect, a solar concentration assembly includes an array of light focusing elements (205) and an array of photovoltaic devices (207) positioned beneath the array of light focusing elements. The arrays of light focusing elements and photovoltaic devices are spaced from one another and configured to concentrate solar rays incident on the light focusing elements to the photovoltaic elements, such that solar ray communication is maintained as an angle of the assembly relative to the sun is altered by movement of the sun during a day and wherein the angle is an oblique angle for the majority of the day. | |||||||||||||||
