Real Time Street Light System Using Low Power Microcontroller
Abstract
Automation the word cannot be defined by the just the definition. It’s a continuous pattern involving of various systems to control and operating machines or processes in Industries, with interdependent networks of telephony, several other applications with minimized or significantly lesser intervention of humans. The Energy consumed by the street lights can be effectively conserved if we can control the traffic lights on the highways by glowing them only when needed. If road is full of traffic, and it is almost impossible to detect the arrival of a vehicle manually without the sensing of the vehicles. Under these situations we should think about a system which is capable of sensing the arrival of vehicle and Switch ON the lights and turn OFF as soon as the vehicle leaves the area. Also the intensity of the street light is controlled according to the surrounding light.
