smart street Light
Conventional street lighting systems consume substantial energy and often remain powered regardless of environmental lighting conditions or pedestrian activity, leading to energy wastage. To address this issue, this project proposes an IoT-based Smart Street Light System designed to optimize energy usage by dynamically controlling street lights based on environmental and motion conditions. The system employs a NodeMCU microcontroller to collect data from an array of sensors, including an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) sensor to detect ambient light levels and IR (Infrared) sensors to detect human or vehicular movement near the light pole. Based on sensor inputs, the system intelligently turns the LED light on or off via a relay module. A stick-mounted setup simulates real-world deployment of the street light pole. When ambient light is sufficient (e.g., during the daytime), the street light remains off, while in low-light conditions, it turns on only if movement is detected, thus conserving energy. This smart lighting solution represents a cost-effective and sustainable advancement in urban infrastructure, promoting intelligent energy management and public safety.
