    This document describes an automatic street light control system that uses a light sensor to detect ambient light levels. When light levels drop below 80% intensity, the system will automatically turn on the street lights. When light levels rise above 80%, the street lights will automatically turn off. An Arduino Uno microcontroller analyzes readings from a light dependent resistor (LDR) light sensor and controls a relay switch to power the street lights on or off accordingly. The system aims to save electricity by automating street light operation based on available natural light levels.

    Abstract:
    Automatic control of street lights is deigned to turn on and turn of street lights automatically.
    This project check the amount of light. If light is 80 percent available, it automatically turn
    off street lights. But if amount of light is less than 80 percent, this project will automatically
    turn on street lights. one can also adjust it according to its requirement. Light sensor is used
    to detect intensity of light. ARDUINO UNO microcontroller is used interfaced with light
    sensor to sense amount of light available. Control signal is generated with the help of
    Arduino uno microcontroller after analyzing amount of light. Control signal generated by
    microcontroller is used to turn on transistor which in turn energize the relay coil and relay
    turn on the street light. we have used only one lamp in this project. Because this is just for
    demonstration purpose. To use it practically, you can use as many street lights as many you
    want to control through this automatic control of street lights.

    Applications :
    This project have many applications. For example, you are too much lazy to turn on or turn
    off your street light manually and you forget to turn it on or off daily. So you easily use this
    project to save your electricity and in return your money. In countries where load shedding is
    a big issue due to short fall in electricity and less in resources to generate electricity. In these
    countries, load shedding issue can be resolved too some extent by saving as much as you can.
    By using automatic control of street lights, we can save maximum amount of energy which is
    useful for your nation and also beneficial for you. Because it will reduce you electricity bill
    and in return save your money.

    Circuit description :
    Followings are the main components of automatic control of street lights :
    Light sensor :
    Light sensor is used to sense amount of light. There are many light sensors available in
    market but Light dependent resistor (LDR) is used as a light sensor. Because it is cheap in
    price, easily available in market and can be easily interfaced with microcontroller to sense
    intensity of light. LDR have property to change its resistance according to intensity of light.
    If light is high, LDR will have low resistance and if light is low, LDR will have high
    resistance. So microcontroller can easily read this resistance in the form of voltage and which
    can be back converted into proportional value of light by using a formula available in data
    sheet.I recommend you to have look in data sheet of LDR.

    Relay interfacing with microcontroller :


    As we have already mentioned above that microcontroller is used to analyze intensity of light
    and to generate control signal which in turn on or off transistor which in turn energize relay
    to turn street light on or off. NPN transistor is used as a switch and resistor at the base of
    transistor is used as current limiting resistor. Diode is used to avoid back emf voltage which
    may produce sparking across relay.
