Intelligent Light System Using VLC

摘要

This paper deals with the design of an intelligent light system using light emitting diodes (LEDs). It introduces the basic idea behind the visible light communication (VLC). This paper describes the use of LED light for communication within the office and home along with its conventional use as a light source. The system uses light sensors, IR transmitters, Arduino Mega as the main control unit. An independent system is designed to simulate the effective use of LED lights for the communication. Also, a mechanism, for automatic switching of LED lights, is developed which is helpful for energy saving.
