Smart street lighting system based on iot technology and piezoelectric sensors

الملخص EN

This paper concentrates on the necessity of having a smart street lighting system, which is applicable in several roadways to provide conservation of energy.

The method of the invoked implementation and the embedded smart system tools guarantee the necessity of the automation process from a primitive illumination operation to a quite intelligent illumination system.

To solve intractable issues possibly taking place in primitive illumination operations related to roadways energy harvesting, the priority is considered for the presence of autonomous microelectronic systems having a great inevitability to make conservation of energy in order not to squander.

The present prototype utilizes a piezoelectric sensor to detect the traffic situation of vehicles.

The system employs a light-dependent resistor (LDR) to differentiate between daylights and evening times.

This makes the smart street lighting system based on the internet of things (IoT) and gathers these processes, transmits, and receives information with no human interaction.

This affords the capability of continuity of conservation of energy, diminishes the cost of manpower, and decreases the maintenance expenses, where the selection of LED street lamps is effectively to be instead of yellow sodium bulbs or white metal halide lamps, which are more costly and have bad environmental impacts.
