Project Idea
Automated Public Lighting
Public lighting in roads and public areas are lit even during daytime resulting in the wastage of precious energy. The conventional method being employed is manual switching on and off and in some places, there has been a shift towards timer control for the on-off of public lighting. However, this has not been very effective. System to be simulated by the participants Desired Outcome: Smart public lighting systems, that are centrally controlled by IOT would facilitate dynamical adjustment of illumination and provide a record of the consumption. This would dramatically result in lower operating costs and would aid in low downtime of failed lighting systems as the defective locations can be identified.
