IoT BASED ENERGY EFFICIENCY and FAULT DETECTION SMART STREET LIGHT USING GSM

Abstract

-Automation plays an increasingly very important role in the world economy and in daily life. Automatic systems are being preferred over any kind of manual system. We can also call it an “SMART STREET LIGHT SYSTEM”. Intelligent light sensing refers to public street lighting and traffic control that adapts to movement by pedestrians, cyclists and cars. Intelligent street lighting and traffic control, also referred to as adaptive street lighting, dims when no activity is detected, but brightens when movement is detected. This type of lighting is different from traditional, stationery and illumination, or dimmable street lighting that dims at predetermined times. The proposed work shows automatic control of streetlights and traffic light control as a result of which power is saved and can control traffic cognition to some extent. In the scope of industrialization, automation is a step beyond mechanization. Whereas mechanization provided human operators with machinery to assist the users with muscular requirements of work, automation greatly decreases the need for human sensory and mental requirements as well. Basically, street lighting is one of the important parts. Therefore, the street lamps are relatively simple but with the development of urbanization, the number of streets increases rapidly with high traffic density.
