摘要：Street lights in India consume 20- 40% of the electrical energy produced in the entire nation and the demand for electricity in recent years has increased day by day. Most of the lights are still halogens which are regularly switched on and off at a particular time irrespective of the need in that particular surrounding. In this project, smart street light is introduced which is IoT based, it aims to automate the process of turning the street lights on when required, also, LED bulbs are used to assures low power consumption. The operation of this system is to maintain the intensity of street lights to 40% of the maximum intensity if no vehicles passing through the road. When the IR sensor detects the movement of the vehicle, the street lights will be switched to 100% intensity. Phototransistor is used in the system to detect day/night. Once the sun is out all the street lights will be in the OFF state. The intensity and switching On/Off of lights are all controlled by the Arduino microcontroller which receives the signal from IR sensors and phototransistor. Electricity theft is also a major problem in many big cities. People tend to connect another phase with a street light pole and connect that phase to their home. To avoid this problem this project uses a sudden signal of power drop or phase drop to detect the exact pole at which electricity theft is happening or if that particular street light is faulty, all this is possible as the data is shared through IoT about each phase and each light and all this can be controlled and monitored by a mobile application.
