Title of Project:

Intelligent street Lightin

Introduction:
As a matter of fact the trending demand of alternative sources of energy is
required to the growing demands of the people. This can be achieved in two
ways: (1) Finding an alternative resource to supply the power and (2) By
reducing the energy consumption of the present resources available. Our
project, hereby, supports the second statement. The project provides detail
about the study and stimulation of streets with controlled lighting based on
microcontroller. The illumination of the road is done by power LEDs instead of
the halogens lamps. Proper program and maintenance has been
implemented to every combination of vehicle in a particular street at night.
Road under construction are illuminated continuously at night. Heavy traffic
condition are also considered accordingly.

PURPOSE:
The sole purpose of this project is to reduce the power consumption across a
street. This kind of project is mainly appropriate in urban cities where most of
the power is wasted in lighting up the streets when there is a minimum
traffic flow during late nights.

OBJECTIVES:
To provide lighting to the streets such that minimum possible power is
consumed during nights.
To manage the traffic flow smoothly and efficient during night.
To replace the conventional halogens lamps with the power LEDs in the
lighting system.
Features:
Public lightening ensures save and pleasant streets. This can perfectly be
achieved during less energy without compromising on quality, smart
techniques helps in this respect. Street lights can be made intelligent by
placing sensors on them, which enables them to detect movement.
Additional technology enables the street lights to communicate with one
another. When an obstacle is detected by a camera or sensor, it will
communicate this to neighboring street lights, which will brighten or
enlighten so that people are always surrounded by a safe circle of light.
Public lightening ensures save and pleasant streets. This can perfectly be
achieved during less energy without compromising on quality, smart
techniques helps in this respect. The light in some streets can be switched
off for dim maturing the night. Thanks to motion senses and adequate
lightening equipments, light can be split on desired times .If necessary
signage,the dangerous traffic nodes turned up when needed. They
automatically caution to reduce feasibility and the event of an accident in
traffic congestion. These crossing road when pedestrians wants to cross the
road. They can bind safety with energy efficiency. Our people sitting in the
bus stop, if so the light will be turned brighter. This means that the bus driver
can see that he means to put over this particular bus stop even from far
away. Thus for lesson the road marking charge during the day to provide
light at night this helps people to drive in the dark and temporary sensing
road marking change the colors to warn black eyes on the road. Festival
lighting creates the alternative hemisphere but may be they do not need
burn all night long , this can be intelligently programmed. Public light at the
desired time, the right level and locations, thats how we can make the
streets safe and pleasant.

Future work:
This project is a cost effective and practical the safest way to save energy and this
system the light status information can be accessed from anytime and anywhere. It
clearly tackles the two problems that world is facing today, saving of energy and
also disposal of incandescent lamps, very efficiently. Initial cost and maintenance
can be the draw backs of this project The LEDs have long life, emit cool light, donor
have any toxic material and can be used for fast switching. For these reasons our
project presents far more advantages which can over shadow the present
limitations. Keeping in view the long term benefits and the initial cost would never
be a problem as the investment return time is very less. The project has scope in
various other applications like for providing lighting in industries, campuses and
parking lots of huge shopping malls. This can also be used for surveillance in
corporate campuses and industries.

An infrared sensor is an electronic instrument that is used to sense certain

characteristics of its surroundings by either emitting and/or detecting infrared
radiation. It is also capable of measuring heat of an object and detecting motion.
Infrared waves are not visible to the human eye. In the electromagnetic spectrum,
infrared radiation is the region having wavelengths longer than visible light
wavelengths, but shorter than microwaves.
A Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) or a photo resistor is a device whose
resistivity is a function of the incident electromagnetic radiation. Hence, they are
light sensitive devices. They are also called as photo conductors, photo conductive
cells or simply photocells. They are made up of semiconductor materials having
high resistance
ORCAD utility helps from designing the schematic to implementing the routes of
the electrical connections and further mounting diagrams of the components. In
general it offers a total solution for core design schematic and PCB layout. The
Capture program includes a project wizard that provides an easy method for
creating a project, complete with library and simulation resources. Creating a
project does not create a design within the project.
The Arduino Software (IDE) is an open source software and it makes easy to the
code and upload it to the board. I t runs on the different plant from Windows, MAC
OS, Linux. The environment is written in Java and before running the IDE Java
software to be installed on the machine this software can be used with any Arduino
board.
MPLAB IDE: MPLAB IDE is a free, integrated toolset for the development of
embedded applications on Microchip's PIC and ds PIC microcontrollers. It is called an
Integrated Development Environment, or IDE, because it provides a single
integrated environment to develop code for embedded microcontrollers.
