Abstract

The Automatic Street Light Control System is a simple yet efficient concept that uses a transistor as a switch. This process completely removes physical labour. The lights switch on automatically when sunlight reaches below the visible region of human eyesight. A Light Dependant Resistor (LDR) sensor, which senses light in a manner akin to that of human eyes, is used to do this. Lights are switched off automatically as soon as sunlight appears. The IR transistor and the LDR are the two main components of the project. The resistance of a light-dependent resistor (LDR) varies with the quantity of light it receives. As a biassing resistor, this LDR is fastened to the transistor. Depending on how much light hits the LDR, the transistor operates in the cutoff and saturation areas. This transistor turns the relay to turn on or off the light. The importance of street lighting for traffic safety is growing. The primary problem with modern street lights, however, is that they depend on solar panels and cells, which leaves them open to theft and other illegal behaviour. For this reason, sensor-equipped solar street lighting are essential. Furthermore, led theft or malfunction is one of the main problems influencing the functioning of the current electrical infrastructure. As a consequence, many of these systems are no longer operational. The idea provides a mechanism for detecting theft or malfunctions in order to protect the solar street lighting infrastructure. To solve this problem, it is essential to regularly monitor the battery and solar voltages. This information may be retrieved from the server over WiFi. If someone attempts to take out the lead, it will be visible on the app. By implementing this task, the developed mobile telnet app will enable the service department to get preventative alerts. The main controller for the system is an Arduino Uno module. A relay is used to switch on and off the LED. The prototype was made, and the results were excellent.
