· Lite8 is an adaptive lighting technology that aims to provide energy-efficient street lighting systems.
· Controlled the ’on’ time and intensity of street lights using ultrasonic sensors for detecting motion and LDRs for detecting external light.
· Designed a robust network by connecting the lights and sensors in a mesh topology.
· Built an application using Android Studio and Firebase to monitor the system’s feedback and notify in case of malfunction.
· Prototyped a two-lane two-way highway use case during testing and observed an energy efficiency of 65%.
As part of the project the following Arduino codes were written:
-
PIR_testing.ino - For testing the PIR sensors
-
LDR_testing.ino - For testing the LDR sensors
-
Streetlighting.ino - The final working code for implementing the two-lane two-way street lighting system.
