Energy – Saving Smart Street Light Intensity Control System using Arduino

摘要

Lightening the outdoor, consumes a significant amount of energy on the highways. During the nights all the lights remain ON for the vehicles, but when there is no vehicle movement there will be a lot of energy wasted. So, to address outdoor lightening issue the best approach is the smart control of public lighting. For achieving an energy efficient system smart lighting uses electronically intensity controlled Light Emitting Diode (LED). This project explains the circuit that switches the street lights ON when there is a vehiclemovement and OFF after a fixed time. The hardware section includes the Arduino Galileo Gen2 from Intel, LED, PIR sensor and LDR sensor.Full Paper
