A. Student detailsName MUHAMAD AKHMAL HAZIQ BIN ABD HALIM Student ID SN093931B. Project descriptionProposed title Street Light Controlling System using Microcontroller.

Project Description This project will create a new street light system that will consume less energy and can be used in a long roadways between the cities.

Problem statement/Motivation

Street lights nowadays are kept on at all time during the night and human has become too busy, and is unable to find time even to switch the lights wherever not necessary. The street lights will be switched on in the evening before the sun sets and they are switched off the next day morning after there is sufficient light on the roads. Street lighting is also a particularly critical concern for public authorities in developing countries because of its strategic importance for economic and social stability. Inefficient lighting wastes significant financial resources every year, and poor lighting creates unsafe conditions. It is very important to know the ways of solving this problem, which is to minimise the power consumption of the street lights.

Project objectives 1. To keep road users safe and lightened.2. To reduce the power consumption in the streets.3. To build an intelligent street light system with build in sensor.

Project Scope (system scope and user scope)

1. The two sensors are used which are Light Dependent Resistor LDR sensor and the photoelectric sensors.2. Practice the C-language programming.

Expected outcomes 1. When LDR engaged, there will be some of the street light will switch on but after the photoelectric engaged, all the other street light will switch on. 2. The power consumption that being used in the streets will be reduced. 3. The system can be applied in the roadways between the cities.
