Smart and Efficient Automatic Solar Street Lighting System Submitted by SETHU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, VIRUDHUNAGAR, TAMIL NADU
background For the 2022-23 year grant request, the Minister for Municipal Administration KN Nehru announced that more street lights would illuminate the poorly-lit streets under the Nirbhaya scheme for the protection of women. As per reports by the New Indian Express, an additional 5,594 street lights and 85 high mast lights will be installed at an estimated cost of ₹33.57 crores across Chennai. Currently, there are about 2,91,415 LED street lights in the city maintained by the corporation's electricity department.
problem The electrical energy consumption of street lighting constitutes an important part of total energy consumption. Saving energy in street lamps is therefore important for total energy savings. Poor lit streets are perceived as very dangerous for pedestrians W ithout any lighting pose is danger to women to walk for long distance It may increase the risk of collisions motorised forms of transport
solution Light poles are used to promote security in urban areas and to increase the quality of life by artificially extending the hours in which it is light so that activity can take place. Lightings also improve safety for drivers, riders, and pedestrians. Solution
Innovation ADDED IN STREET LIGHT
Architecture CHARGE CONTROLLER BATTERY IR SENSOR RAIN GAUGE SENSOR RFID TAG ADVERTISEMENT DISPLAY RFID READER MICRO CONTROLLER SOLAR PANEL LDR DAY TIME OFF NIGHT TIME ON DIM BRIGHT HIGH LOW EMERGENCY VEHICLE
Proposed solution Street light is an essential for public services that provides so for environments, importantly at night times and heavy traffics. They secure lighting can be modernized to helpful for village communities. SOLAR SOURCE RFID READER RAIN GAUGE HC SR501 SENSOR DISPLAY
Proposed solution Need of the design : Energy consumption is controlled by this designed solution. No need for electricity
Proposed solution Weather indication : Accurate weather data can assist farmers in determining when they should work efficient in their precautions. By using BMPI80 & DHTII sensors. Raining precautions for the peoples
Proposed solution Emergency alert : In case of emergency vehicles need to cross remote areas, instructed to leave way for vehicles by using RFID technology. Instructed to leave way
Proposed solution Advertisement display : By making advertisement on display of light pole is the easy way to convey all social information's to the people directly. Agricultural related information (regarding govt. schemes, crop details, pest control, recent advancement in agriculture and crop etc.) will be passed then and there. So, there is need to go for agricultural office for getting information Smart way to convey
novelty Fit and Forget device Excellent for remote villages High reliability and durability Perfect design Easy Installation Low maintenance D U R A B L E
OUTCOMES Village is illuminated independently by off grid solar panel Farmers can able to know all the detail about agriculture from their premises Energy conservation so that small solar panel can be used. Or stored energy can be used for some other purposes Weather display helps the villagers Fault detection in our system will help them to get illumination continuously Emergency alert system will help the villagers to save life
