An Energy-efficient Microcontroller-based Smart Light Controlling System

2021

In this work, an energy-saving smart light controlling system has been proposed that can main-tain the desired intensity of light in a room automatically. Unlike the conventional light control system, the proposed system splits a large room into several zones and analyzes the light inten-sity of each zone; hence, the controlling unit adjusts the light intensity to the desired level. The main controlling unit consists of a light sensor, a motion sensor, a relay with a driver unit, an LCD display, etc. for controlling light efficiently to reduce the power waste. The sensors meas-ure the intensity of light, based on the standard light intensity data chart the controller units make a decision how many light bulbs are needed to be switched ON/OFF in a particular zone. Moreover, the system automatically switched-OFF all light bulbs when there is nobody in the room. Proteus design suite 8.0 is used to design and simulation of the proposed system. Moreo-ver, the PCB layout is designed using...

Design and Implementation of a Microcontroller Based Embedded Real Time Motion-controlled Room Lighting System for Smart Homes

At this crucial age of technological revolution, there is a widespread transition from the use of manually operated electronic devices to fully automatic electronic system. The concept of miniaturization has gained a broad scope of applications in the field of electronic engineering as high power gigantic gadgets and components are greatly diminished to a very small size with reduced power consumptions. The microcontroller which lies in the heart of the embedded system is a single chip computer which performs various control functions as required. This paper comprehensively explores the application of a PIC microcontroller in the continuous control of a room lighting system, by enhancing house owners with the ability to automatically control the Switch ON and Switch OFF actions of light in the room or apartment, when the movement of an occupant is electronically sensed. The sensor circuits effectively utilize the advancement in photonics to detect the presence of an occupant and responds in prominent manner. The design setup was simulated using the ISIS Proteus 8.0 simulation package and the installation recommendations were given in detail.

INTELLIGENT LIGHTING SYSTEM WITH ENERGY EFFICIENCY

This paper describes Intelligent Lighting System to reduce energy consumption in lighting system. Now days' saving energy is the most important issue, so many light control systems have been initiated in current market. But due to some designing limitations and energy inefficiency, the existing light control systems cannot be successfully installed in home and office buildings with energy efficiency and user satisfaction. This system uses motion, light sensors and wireless communication technology for control and monitors an LED light according to the user's movement and the surrounding light. This system can automatically adjust light intensity to improve energy efficiency and user satisfaction. The android Bluetooth application is particularly designed to control minimum light intensity as per user need and environment light illuminance.

Automatic room light intensity detection and control using a microprocessor and light sensors

IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, 2008

In this paper we propose a design using both a microprocessor and light sensors for automatic room light detection and control. Our design, the HLCM (Home Light Control Module) which will be installed in every light fixture of a family, is made up of four blocks: the pyroelectric infrared (PIR) sensor circuit, the light sensor circuit, the microprocessor and the RF module. By using the PIR sensor circuit, the HLCM detects if a human body enters the detection area or not. If there is no human body present, all controlled lights are turned off. If there is, the HLCM detects the light intensity under the environment and maintains sufficient light by controlling the number of lights. We have also integrated an RF module to transmit and receive the data from each HLCM so we can control different lights in different regions. The result of using the HLCM shows that the total power consumption can be reduced.

DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF INTELLIGENT LIGHTING SYSTEM FOR SMART HOUSES

Energy conservation is the most important factor in recent human life, more wastage of energy is caused by the inefficient use of the consumer electronics. Energy saving in buildings not only saves money and also helps protect the natural resources and environment .The sensor which detects the day light is used to switch outdoor lighting and the PIR sensor which detects the entering person into room are used here to regulate the indoor lighting intensity. Saving the electricity is not difficult. Just by turn off the light when leaving the room. We have tried to make a LED lighting system which may operate intelligently considering energy efficiency and user satisfaction.

CONSTRUCTION OF AN INTELLIGENT AND EFFICIENT LIGHT CONTROL SYSTEM

A lighting control system is an intelligent connection of lighting that control the amount of light in a given space. It provides interaction between systems in order to regulate light. It is mostly used in public buildings in order to save energy maximally from lighting system and to satisfy codes of buildings. The problem of expensive cost in lighting system, increase in energy consumption bills and energy wastage led to the introduction of smart lighting. Therefore, an intelligent and efficient light control system that saves energy and cost of energy consumption of light in our day to day activities for rooms was assembled. Passive infrared sensor combined with the light dependent resistor was used to control the luminous intensity of led from the comparator (ATMEGA328) comparing the values gotten from the two sensors as input such that when the value of luminous intensity gotten from the light dependent resistor is higher than the required intensity, then the led remains off. When the value of luminous intensity gotten from the light dependent resistor is lower than the required intensity, the led supplies light that will make up for the missing intensity. It is deduced that, as the intensity of light increases, the resistance of the light dependent resistor decreases. It is also observed that the luminous intensity increases as the time of the day increases i.e. As the laboratory light intensity decreases. Thus, the system functions efficiently as the energy is considerably conserved.

Automatic Room Lights Controller Using Arduino and PIR Sensor

IJRASET, 2021

Automatic room lights controller can be installed in which the room lights will turn on automatically upon detection of human motion and will stay tuned until the motion stops or the person has left the room. Such type of system can be implemented where we don't require continuous light supply but only when a person is present. The common places where we can install the system are washrooms, bathrooms, office rooms, classrooms in schools and colleges, garages, etc. Also, using this controller system, we don't need to worry about electricity as the room lights will switch off on their own when no person is present. A huge amount of energy and economy will also be saved. The main components of the Automatic Room Lights project are Arduino Uno, PIR Sensor and the Relay Module.
