ABSTRACT
Every day, a significant amount of energy is wasted due to continuously glowing street lights, which sometimes
glow during the day as well. As a result, an autonomous auto control system is required to prevent energy
waste. This paper presents an intelligent street light concept that modifies a logic control circuit such that the
lights are regulated automatically based on the moving traffic. This means that all street lights will turn on
automatically during the dark at first, and these lights will remain dim when no activity is detected, but will
brighten when vehicle movement is detected. These lights will gradually become brighter as the car travels
forward, one after the other. This type of lighting is different from traditional or stationary illumination.
Additionally, an automatic switch on and switch off circuit has been incorporated to the system to ensure that
the lights are automatically powered during nightfall and de-electrified in the morning, thus reducing power
consumption. The demonstration module is made up of four small street lights, each with a 2.5 watt high-glow
LED lamp. Relays connected to an embedded system with an 89c51 microprocessor chip provide power to
these lights. The LDR is served as a natural light sensor, and it is connected to a timer chip that is set to trigger
mode, allowing all lights to be turned on only when it is dark. IR sensors monitor moving traffic, while four sets
of sensors are used to regulate four street lights separately. When the street lights are turned off, they remain
dim however, when any circuit senses an approaching vehicle, the corresponding street light will glow brightly.
When each street light has its own control circuit, and because the vehicle moves, the street lights will brighten
one after the other in a succession. Because this is a prototype module, four street lights are simulated in the
demo module however, in real-time applications, whole street lights must be controlled separately.
I. INTRODUCTION
Street lighting is one of a city's most expensive energy bills, accounting for 35-45% of a municipality's utility
budget. Municipal street lighting costs can be reduced by up to 70% using an intelligent lighting control system.
An intelligent street lighting system changes light output based on usage and occupancy, automating pedestrian
versus bike versus automobile classification. Depending on the speed of movement, it flashes a set number of
street lights ahead and less behind. It also adjusts the brightness of the light based on the road conditions [3].
Transportation infrastructure development is one of any society's civilization indicators. Highways, roads, and
streets are the primary components of the transportation model that require sufficient lighting for visibility.
The manual mode is preferred by automation systems because it decreases unnecessary energy consumption.
From deck ventilators to washing machines and a variety of other applications, energy-saving automated
systems play a significant part in making daily living easier for customers. Streetlights can benefit from
automation in the same way that any other sector can. If we turn ON a street light manually, it will stay ON for
an average of 13 hours, regardless of whether there is any traffic or pedestrian movement on the road. We can
save a significant amount of energy by automating the manual operation. The natural light intensity is detected
in a smart street-light system, and the street lights are turned ON/OFF accordingly. The system detects
movement on the road and maintains operation of the lights as a result. The cost of streetlights can be reduced
by using movement-aware smart streetlights and appropriately designed mechanisms [4]. A Street light, street
lamp, or lamp standard is a proposed source of light on the side of a road or footpath, which is turned on or lit
at a certain time every night. The reduction of accidents and an increase in safety are two significant advantages
of street lighting. According to studies, darkness causes a significant number of crashes and accidents,
particularly those involving pedestrians; pedestrian accidents are 3 to 6.75 times more likely in the dark than
they are during the day. The use of street lighting has been shown to reduce walker collisions by nearly half.
Street Light Monitoring & Control is an automated system that uses timed controlled switching of street lights
to improve an enterprise's efficiency and accuracy [1].

o Now a days Streetlight are not supple.
o Manual mistakes results into power wastage.
o The most difficult problem is dealing with remote areas.
As one of the most important criteria to follow in the globe, energy conservation is seen as a critical tool in the
fight against climate change. Nonetheless, the electric vehicle is designed to safeguard the environment. The
energy used by streetlights accounts for 10-38 percent of total energy consumption. Entire energy bill of typical
world cities, which brings a governments face a significant financial and environmental burden. maintain their
business operations. As a result, the energy-efficient street was born. In recent years, lighting schemes have
become one of the most popular research subjects [8]. Depending on the material used, street lights typically
require 35-400 watts. Low-pressure sodium bulbs, for example, take 35-55 watts to operate, which is a lot of
energy for a light with such low efficiency. As a result, we've designed a self-sufficient system that uses the
wasted mechanical energy from the vehicles that use the roads on a daily basis to power the street lights
instead of relying on local gridlines [5].
With the advancement of Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology and the Internet of Things (IoT), the
Intelligent Street Lighting system (ISLs), which aims to reduce electrical energy consumption while minimising
environmental impact, has piqued the scientific community's interest and developed quickly. ISLs, which are
made up of advanced sensors, smart gateways, and a control platform, have recently emerged as a leading and
promising Smart Cities application. In contrast to traditional street lighting schemes that rely on clocks and/or
light sensors to achieve on off functionality, ISLs can use IoT technology to adaptively adjust the brightness of
streetlights based on surrounding environmental conditions and/or coordinate with adjacent streetlights,
allowing for energy savings without compromising user experience. As a result, communities can save 20-70
percent of the electric energy expense for street lighting by using ISLs [8].
We all know that street lighting is an important public utility provided by local and municipal governments. For
road safety, personal safety, and urban ambience, good illumination is vital. Street lighting improves visibility
for vehicles, bikers, and pedestrians in the dark, reducing the number of accidents on the road. Indirectly, street
lighting helps to deter crime by boosting the perception of personal safety as well as the security of nearby
public and private properties. On the other hand, energy conservation is critical nowadays [6].
The system's primary goal is to reduce electricity usage on the streets while also reducing personnel. This
means that these street lights will be turned on automatically when there is no natural light during the evening,
and they will be turned off automatically when there is natural light in the morning. This includes using
particular sensors, LDRs, and Microcontrollers to control a circuit of street lights during the day and night. For
safety and to avoid accidents during the night, street lights are a must in today's world of mobility. Despite this,
no one bothers to turn it off or on while not in use in today's hectic world.
The benefits of this type of technology are.
1) Energy savings: The lights dim at night when there is low activity, thus, saves energy.
2) Maintenance cost reduction: The maintenance costs are reduced because its lifetime is more before the
lamps have to be replaced.
3) Reduction in CO₂ emissions: With the energy reduction, there is a reduction in CO₂ emissions.
4) Reduction of light pollution: The light pollution is reduced, because the street lamp’s brightness varies as
per traffic flow.
5) Maintenance of safety: The safety is maintained, because the lights are dimmed, i.e., not turned off
completely. It becomes clear from far away when vehicle movement is approaching, and thus brightens
lamps.
6) It doesn’t contain toxic chemicals (e.g., mercury) in the light lamp

III. EXPERIMENT SETUP
An application that controls the daylight operation and aids in the reciprocal dominance of these lights by
utilizing an app that can connect with the back half. As a result, by utilizing this initiative, we will be able to
significantly reduce electricity waste [1]. Street lights can be turned on and off generally according to the day's
schedule. For example, street lights can turn on at 6 p.m. and turn off at 6 a.m. The timetable can be adjusted to
meet the needs of the local site. Quickly and easily from the central room, time schedules can be set. The road
lighting may be turned on during sunset or darkness and turned off during sunrise or shine. A suitable device
has been installed to detect whether it is day or night [1]. Supported light-emitting diode lightweight
temperature may also be a factor in street light dimming. We shall dim the light-emitting diode street lights in
motorcar mode if the light-emitting diode lights have become het up after a long period of operation. For this
dimming function, a temperature device is attached to each light-emitting diode in the light fixture. Instead of
using more traditional light sources such as sodium bulbs, the system will use LED lights. Each light has a
power rating and is more efficient than any other light source currently in use. Because if one light is broken by
an external reason, the system will maintain its integrity and continue to function, the lights will be arranged
across each other in parallel [5].

IV. WHY WE ARE USING LED
The relevance of street lighting is growing. HID Lamps are used as light sources in most outdoor illumination
sources, such as street lights. Global concerns have been expressed about the quantity of electricity required by
HID bulbs, and, as a result, the amount of CO2 released into the atmosphere as a result of this power
consumption. The lifecycle of an LED light can be up to three times longer than that of a HID light. LED lighting
could cut down on the time it takes to replace broken fixtures, and it's predicted that an LED system will be
relatively low-maintenance. As a result, the LED system may be regarded acceptable for usage on remote
islands or in high hilly areas [6]. This technique entails making each lamp completely self-contained in terms of
lighting management by controlling through the wireless network to the base station for data processing, and
in the event of a malfunction, the service engineer is notified via a graphical interface to take corrective action
[2].

Any photo sensor's spectral response connects its light sensitivity to the wavelength of electromagnetic
radiation impinging on it. The response usually peaks at a specific wavelength. All other wavelengths are
compared to this point, which is called unity. When the peak response wavelength is normalized, it is either 1
or 100 percent [2].

V. ARCHITECTURE OF STREET LIGHT CONTROL SYSTEM
A group of measuring stations in the street (one station in each lamppost) and a base station on it make up the
system. The system is built as a modular system that may be easily expanded. The measuring stations are used
to monitor street conditions such as daylight intensity and, based on the circumstances, turn on or off the
lamps. Other factors that influence activation include weather, seasons, geographic location, and a variety of
other factors [3]. The streetlights are turned on when vehicles approach the lamp, and the LEDs illuminate
before turning off. To save power, adjacent LED lights are lowered to half their original brightness using the
PWM technique on vehicles within a specific distance. The ZigBee wireless media is used to transmit the control
and LED status information. A simpler, versatile, and cost-effective system for controlling the on-off mechanism
of street lights is presented in this study. The terminal has the capacity to run on and off the network
independently, ensuring system stability [6].

VI. CONCLUSION
The proposed modern street light system includes the PWM technology in LED to detect day/night time, vehicle
movement, and atmospheric conditions to vary the intensity of the street light. LED dimming and brightening
saves a significant amount of energy. As a result, if this modern street light system is installed in cities, a lot of
energy can be saved. It is possible that they'll be criticised. Due to the fact that it would be costly, we must
consider advantages: Lamppost prices are slightly higher, although it is offset by a shortage of lampposts of
expensive wiring and the availability of a power network, as well as significantly lower maintenance costs. As a
result, the objective is to Reductions in energy use and toxic pollutant emissions. The current system is
adjustable and extendable according to the requirements of its users.
