Iot Based Smart Street Light That Glows On Detecting Vehicle Movement

Abstract

IoT has made significant impact in our economies and society, which describes as a worldwide network of intercommunicating devices. This saves lot of energy especially objects like Home appliances, Roads, and vehicles. Based on technology, when vehicle moves on highway it automatically switch ON only a block of street lights ahead of it (vehicle), and to switch OFF the trailing lights to save energy. During night conditions all the lights on the highway remain ON for the vehicles, so lots of energy is wasted when there is no vehicle movement. By using the IR sensors on approaching the vehicle we save lot of energy.

One piezoelectric Buzzer is provided to alert and monitor the speed of vehicle. When vehicle moves on high speed the LCD panel will show display of it. Upon sensing the movement the sensor transmit the data to the microcontroller which furthermore the Light to switch ON. Similarly as soon as the vehicle or an obstacle goes away the Light gets switched OFF, as the sensor sense any object at the same time the status (ON/OFF) of the street light can be accessed from anywhere and anytime through internet. If any failure occurs it sends the signal to the control department.
