IOT Based Automatic Street Light Control by Detecting Vehicle Movement.

About This Project:

This project aims for designing and executing the advanced development in embedded systems for energy saving of street lights. Currently we have a manual system where the street lights will be switched ON in the evening before the sunsets and they are switched OFF in the next day morning after there is sufficient light on the outside.But the actual timing for these lights to be switched ON is when there is absolute darkness. With this, the power will be wasted up to some extent. This project gives solution for electrical power wastage. Also the manual operation of the lighting system is completely eliminate d. The proposed system provide a solution for energy saving. This is achieved by sensing and approaching a vehicle using an IR transmitter and IR Receiver couple . Upon sensing the movement the sensor transmit the data to the microcontroller which furthermore the Light to switch ON. Similarly as soon as the vehicle or an obstacle goes away the Light gets switched OFF as the sensor sense any object at the same time the status(ON/OFF) of the street light can be accessed from anywhere and anytime through internet. This project is implemented with smart embedded system which controls the street lights based on detection of vehicles or any other obstacles on the street .Whenever the obstacle is detected on the street within the specified time the light will get automatically ON/OFF according to the obstacle detection and the same information can be accessed through internet. The real time information of the street light (ON/OFF Status) can be accessed from anytime, anywhere through internet.
