Street Light Automation, Controlling and Monitoring
- 1. Parallel Street Lights Automation, Monitoring and Controlling
- 2. PROBLEM STATEMENT DEFINITION: • Automate street light based on light availability • Use Raspberry Pi as gateway • Use ESP 8266 as node • Manual and automatic powering • Should be able to monitor and control • Develop suitable web and app interface for the same
- 3. EXISTING METHOD • Conventional manual system uses physical switches which are turned ON in the evening and OFF in the morning • Current automated system are based on time Disadvantages of Existing System Manual Switching More Energy Consumption Not effective for changing seasons
- 4. Proposed solution • Light intensity based street light • Works on Two modes • Manual and Automatic • Can be monitor and control using web or mobile interface Advantages of proposed solution Energy efficient and longer life Changes according to seasons Reduces manual labour and maintenance Notifies on LED repair

- 7. Light sensor senses value Microcontroller Light availability Turn off Street light Turn on Street light Automatic/Man uel mode ? Automatic Manual Display available light Intensity and LED status(ON/OFF) - Monitoring Master control Enough light Not enough light Master decision ? Turn on Street light Turn off Street light Master says ON Master says OFF Internet Internet Flow Chart

Maximum capacity is 150 polls Current infrastructure upgradability Possible Possible Possible Initial Cost High Low Low Install & Plug-n-Play Possible Possible Possible Weather & Tamper Proof Guarantied Not guarantied Not guarantied Report Generation Daily / monthly / weekly reports Doesn’t generate reports Doesn’t generate reports Energy costs Reduce your electricity bill by up to 30%. Reduce energy costs by as much as 40% Reduce energy costs considerably. Maintenance cost Reduce maintenance costs as well as No additional cost of wiring. Reduce maintenance costs by as much as 50 % or more Significantly reduce maintenance costs Bench marking
- 9. Current scope in Market • 315 million conventional street lights around the world • Which would grow to 400 million by 2020 • US, UK and China are the leading market • In India, Andhra Pradesh and Rajasthan have the largest requirement • Growing role in cities around the world • Market remains young
- 10. • THREATS:• OPPORTUNITITIES: • WEAKNESS:• STRENGTHS - Energy- - Less manual - Based on intensity - Requires - Requires Standardizing - Hacking of account can improper - Natural can damage sensors - Every housing colony - Highways - Private - Government SWOT
- 11. Future advancements • At nights, excess speed of motorists can be indicated by proper traffic speed sensors and reducing 5% lighting. • Solar panels and batteries can be used alternate source of energy • Fault detection alarm • Automation based on motion detection as well
