Automatic Street Light

Abstract

Abstract: Traditional street lighting systems consume a significant amount of energy, leading to increased costs and negative environmental impacts. The demand for energy-efficient and cost-effective lighting solutions for streets and highways has increased in recent years. The given project focuses on to manage the amount of electricity used in public areas and to reduce labor. The research paper presents the design and working of an automatic street light system that uses LDR which detects the intensity of light and according to that it adjusts the lightening. The system decreases the costs by only lighting the areas where it is needed. The given paper offers a sketch of the different types of components used in the system such as LDR and microcontroller during day and night. The paper presents the results of experiments conducted to evaluate the performance of the system. The results showed that the system was able to accurately detect the intensity of sunlight and adjust the lighting accordingly. Ultimately, the paper focuses on the potential benefits of the system which includes improved safety for vehicles and reduced energy consumption. It also focus on some of the challenges that need to be addressed to deploy the system on a larger scale, such as the cost of the sensors and the need for maintenance. Overall, this research paper highlights on the feasibility and effectiveness of using automatic street lights controlled by a microcontroller to improve energy efficiency and reduce costs in urban areas
