Description

ABSTRACT

Electrically powered street lighting has brought a sense of wellbeing and freedom from risk or danger but Street lights in town centers, traffic lights and pedestrian crossings stay on all night. This amount of lighting is not required in that it adds no benefit to the community. Continuous ON state of street light leds to power wastage. In other case, it is getting very difficult to analyze the failure of street lights in all places. In these kinds of situation effects of crime will be increasing. In our proposed project work we have analyzed these problems.

This Project work consists of a group of measuring stations in the street (one station located in each lamppost) and a base station located nearby. The measuring stations are used to observe street conditions as the intensity of daylight and, depending on the conditions they activate or off the lamps. For these reasons every lamp is designed independent to decide about the activation of light. The base station conjointly checks if any lamp is correctly operating and sends the information using the wireless network to the operator who will act in case of malfunction. 

EXISTING SYSTEM

• Manually switching ON/OFF
• Not fully Energy Efficient systems
• Wired switching
• No monitoring system

PROPOSED SYSTEM

• Fully automated with monitoring base station
• Wireless systems
• Intelligent Energy efficient system

BLOCK DIAGRAM EXPLANATION 

• In this project, we are doing save power saving and automatic devices control system using a sensor like PIR, LDR, and IR Senor.
• First based on LDR sensor we are checking light intensity(daytime or night time), based on intensity light will get on and off.
• Using the IR sensor will detect the vehicle.PIR sensor will detect a person.
• Based on a person and vehicle light intensity will change.
• Same time if have any load problem that will send the alert message to the monitor side.
