Smart street lights using IoT

Abstract

This paper will exhibit smarter ways of saving electricity in cities by using solar energy for smart street lights. Photovoltaic source will be used as gaining energy and distributing it to the LED's of the street lights. The energy occupied will be stored in a rechargeable battery which will automatically turn itself ON whenever the sunlight is not received to the detectors. Every street light will then work automatically with respect to the presence of sunlight, time and also by sensing the presence of any object using PIR sensors and also explain how the cost of electricity using street lights can be minimized using the above the mentioned parameters for developing the Smart Street.
