 ABSTRACT

This project is designed to detect a vehicle movement on

road to switch on only a block of street lights that are
ahead of the vehicle ,and to switch off the glowing lights
when the vehicle passes away from the lights. This will
help to save electrical energy. This is achieved by sensing
an approaching vehicle, and then switching on a block of
street lights ahead of the vehicle. As the vehicle passes
by, the trailing lights gets switched off automatically.
Thus, this system can save a lot of energy.
 Introduction

During night all the street lights on the roads remain on throughout the
night, so a lot of energy gets wasted when there is no vehicle
movement.This project provides a solution for saving energy. This is
achieved by sensing an approaching vehicle, and then switching on a block
of street lights ahead of the vehicle. As the vehicle passes by, the trailing
lights get switched off automatically .Thus , this system can save a lot of
energy. So if there are no vehicles on the roads, then all the lights will
remain off.

WORKING PRINCIPLE

 Street lights are switched on depending on the intensity of the Sun light on LED. If the intensity
of Sunlight on light dependent resistor is low, its resistance value is high. This value increases
and becomes high when it is completely in dark. This resistance value decides when the street
lights are required to switch ON.As the resistance value is maximum in the midnights, real time
clock comes into the play. The controller checks peak time during which there is no traffic and
switch OFF the lights. When there is any vehicle on the road, it is detected by the IR receiver
and transmitter In Transmissive IR Sensor, the IR transmitter and receiver are placed close to
each other so that IR receiver always detects IR Rays emitted by the IR Transmitter. If there is
an obstacle between the IR Transmitter and Receiver, the IR Rays are received by the receiver.
 This can be configured to turn ON or OFF the LEDs (or street lights) with the help of
microcontroller and also in Arduino.
 Cont…..

 This proposed system provides a solution for energy saving

 This is achieved by sensing an approaching vehicle and then
switches ON a block of street lights ahead of the vehicle
 As the vehicle passes by, the trailing lights switch OFF
automatically. Thus we save a lot of energy.
 How ever, there is another mode of operation where instead
of switching OFF the lights completely, they remain ON with
10% of the maximum intensity. Street light that glows on
vehicle movement.
 FUTURE SCOPE

 The number of channels can be increased to interface more number of

light sensors.
 Further the project can be enhanced by using appropriate sensor for
detecting the failed street light and then sending an SMS to the control
department via GSM modem for appropriate action .
 This system can be connected to communication devices such as GSM,
cellular phones or satellite terminal to enable the remote collection of
recorded data or alarming of certain parameters.
 IMPROVEMENTS

 Smart street light on vehicle detection is improved by

displaying the total number of vehicle passed at specific
time.
 This can be used for many surveys, statistics and for
comparison.
 This project can be further improved by detecting the
vehicle number.
 ADVANTAGES

 If the lighting system implements all LED lights, the cost

of the maintenance can be reduced as the life span and
durability of LEDs is higher than Neon based lights which
are normally used as street lights.
 As the lights are automatically turned ON or OFF, huge
amount of energy can be saved.
Applications

 The street light control

circuit can be used in
normal roads, highways,
express ways etc.
 The project can also be
used in parking areas of
malls, hotels, industrial
lighting, etc.
 Garden light…
 CONCLUSION

 The street light control circuit can be used in normal roads,

highways, express ways etc. The project can also be used in
parking areas of malls, hotels, industrial lighting, etc. This
will help to save electrical energy.
 This concept can be used in many projects such as a home
automation, elevator, automatic door opening using IR
sensor. Automatic room lighting can be implemented using
this. The main aim of this project is to save energy and
power.
