INTELLIGENT STREET LIGHT made by Prince Mehta

Intelligent street lighting refers to public street lighting that adapts to movement by pedestrians, cyclists and cars. Intelligent street lighting, also referred to as adaptive street lighting, dims when no activity is detected, but brightens when movement is detected. This type of lighting is different from traditional, stationary illumination, or dimmable street lighting that dims at pre-determined times.

BENEFITS OF MY MODEL

The benefits of this type of technology can be

• Energy savings upto 50%
• Reduction of light pollution
• integration with traffic control
• No need for timer
• Damage warning and alerts.
• Auto switching possible.
• Determination of light bulb burn out.

Low maintenance cost.

Features

Street lights can be made intelligent by placing cameras or other sensors on them, which enables them to detect movement (e.g. Sensity's Light Sensory Network, GE's "Currents").[4] Additional technology enables the street lights to communicate with one another. Different companies have different variations to this technology. When a passer-by is detected by a camera or sensor, it will communicate this to neighboring street lights, which will brighten so that people are always surrounded by a safe circle of light.[5] The SmartLighting technology of the Anhalt University of Applied Sciences does this as well, and has been installed in Bernburg-Strenzfeld in Germany.[6] Street lights illuminate at a longer distance ahead of the pedestrian than behind the pedestrian in the SmartLighting concept

CONTROL

Some companies also offer software with which the street lights can be monitored and managed wirelessly. Clients, or other companies, can access the software from a computer, or even a tablet. From this software, they can gather data, pre-set levels of brightness and dimming time; receive warning signals when a light defects
