Objectives: This paper outlines a completely automated system for drying the clothes under direct sun by eliminating the manual supervision. Methods: Such an automated system is constructed using smart sensors for monitoring humidity in the environment, a set of photo voltaic sensors and a drive system. Based on the output from the sensor a microcontroller instructs the drive system to move the cloth towards the optimal section. Findings: The simple design exhibits a reliable, fast-response in a continuous manner without manual supervision. Applications/Improvements: System can be put into operation throughout the duration of drying especially during inconsistent weather condition.
