Abstract

Street lights are a vital part of every carriageway, providing citizens and road user with safety and security but what if we could use our street lighting in a more intelligent way rather than the normal on-off system that currently exists. In this case, huge amounts of power wasted through the conventional street light which is currently apply on-off system. The consequence is that a large amount of power is wasted meaninglessly. For an example, the street light will still light up although there is no vehicle using the street. On the other topic, the objective of the street light project is to design a street light based on IR sensor circuit to detect the present of the vehicle. Besides that, an Arduino microcontroller will be used to develop a coding for street light. On the other parts, An Arduino will control the street lights, IR sensor and LDR. Meanwhile, IR sensor will be function for detecting the present of the vehicle on the street. Whenever, if there is no present of vehicle on the street, the street light will remains at dim state unless if the sensor detect present of vehicle on the street, the street light will be bright. Apart from that, Light density resistor (LDR) is use in this project for detecting the intensity of light. In addition, an internet of things (IoT) will be implemented in the project that allow the authority to control the system, receive notification and detect faulty of the street light. As expected, I envisage the project will bring a huge impact to the community in reducing fatal accident on the highway. Furthermore, the project will be going for green technology which beneficial the people. In conjunction of that it could reduce money for maintenance.
