Smart Led Street Light || using LDR || Smart Highway

Smart Street light is an automated system which automates the street. The main aim of Smart Street light is to reduce the power consumption when there are no vehicle movements on the road.                                                                                    The street  light will turned to be ON when there are vehicles on the road otherwise the lights will be switched OFF. With advancement of technology, things are becoming simpler and easier for everyone in the world today.  
                                                                                                              
Automation is the use of control systems and information technologies to reduce the need for human work in the production of goods and services.

The Smart street light provides a solution for energy saving which is achieved by sensing an approaching vehicle using the IR sensors and then switching ON a block of street light ahead of the vehicle.        
                                                                                                                                                                                As the vehicle passes by, the trailing lights switch OFF automatically. Thus, we save a lot of energy. So when there are no vehicles on the highway, then all the lights remain OFF.

By using Smart Street light, one can save surplus amount of energy which is done by replacing sodium vapor lamps by LED and adding an additional feature for security purposes.                                                                                                           

                    

   It prevents unnecessary wastage of electricity, caused due to manual switching  of street lights when it’s not required. It provides an efficient and smart automatic streetlight control system with the help of IR sensors.                                                                                                          

It can reduce the energy consumption and maintains the cost. The system is versatile, extendable and totally adjustable to user needs.                                          

•)The system is now used only for one way traffic in highways.
•)Continuous use of LDR and IR sensors even in day time.
•) Not switched on before the sunset

Conclusion:-

• huge reduction of energy and maintenance cost
• increased public safety from improved lighting
• safer traffic due to increased visibility of hazards;
• measurable environmental impact due to reduced energy consumption
