INTRODUCTION

MOST OF THE PLACES HAVE AUTOMATIC SMART

LAMP WHICH CAN SENSE THE DAYTIME AND NIGHT-TIME,
AND AUTOMATICALLY TURNS ON AND OFF ACCORDING THE
NIGHT AND DAY. HERE WE ARE EXTENDING THIS PROJECT
BY ADDING ONE MORE CONSTRAINT TO TURN ON THE LIGHT
THAT IS STREET LIGHT WILL ONLY GLOW IF THERE IS
DARKNESS AND SOMEONE IS PASSING THROUGH THE
STREET. THE MAIN OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO
REDUCE THE POWER CONSUMPTION BY GLOWING THE
STREET LIGHT ONLY WHEN IT IS NEEDED. IN THIS
PROJECT WE ARE DEMONSTRATING THE PROTOTYPE OF
THE SMART LAMP WITH 3 IR SENSORS, 1 LDR SENSOR AND 3
LEDS - EACH REPRESENTING ONE STREETLIGHT.

MODELLING AND ANALYSIS(WORKING)

COMPONENTS REQUIRED: -

 ESP8266 NODEMCU
 MICRO USB CABLE
 LEDS
 JUMPER WIRES
 LED WS2812B

BEFORE MOVING FORWARD, LETS UNDERSTAND ABOUT THE

COMPONENTS USED IN THE PROJECT.

 ESP8266

ESP8266 NODEMCU IS AN OPEN SOURCE IOT PLATFORM. IT

INCLUDES FIRMWARE WHICH RUNS ON THE LOW-COST WI-FI
ENABLED ESP8266 WI-FI SOC FROM ESPRESSIF SYSTEMS, AND
HARDWARE WHICH IS BASED ON THE ESP-12 MODULE. IT HAS
GPIO, SPI, I2C, ADC, PWM AND UART PINS FOR COMMUNICATION
AND CONTROLLING OTHER PERIPHERALS ATTACHED TO IT. ON
BOARD NODEMCU HAS CP2102 IC WHICH PROVIDES USB TO TTL
FUNCTIONALITY.

 OPERATING VOLTAGE: 2.5 TO 3.3V

 OPERATING CURRENT: 800 MA
 3.3V 600MA ON-BOARD VOLTAGE REGULATION
 ESP8266 COMES UP WITH 2 SWITCHES ONE IS RESET AND
ANOTHER ONE IS FLASH BUTTON, RESET BUTTON IS USED TO
RESET NODEMCU AND FLASH BUTTON IS USED TO DOWNLOAD
AND IS USED WHILE UPGRADING THE FIRMWARE. THE BOARD
HAS BUILT IN LED INDICATOR WHICH IS CONNECTED TO D0 PIN.
 THE NODEMCU BOARD ALSO CONTAINS A CP2102 USB TO
UART MODULE TO CONVERT THE DATA FROM USB TO SERIAL
SO THAT IT CAN BE CONTROLLED AND PROGRAMMED VIA
COMPUTER.
 THE ESP8266 HAS 4 POWER PINS: ONE VIN PIN FOR INPUT
POWER SUPPLY AND THREE 3.3V PINS FOR OUTPUT POWER
SUPPLY. EVEN IF 5V REGULATED SUPPLY IS GIVEN
THROUGH VIN, THE VOLTAGE REGULATOR WILL DECREASE
IT TO 3.3V DURING OUTPUT.
 THE ESP8266 HAS 3 GND PINS WHICH INDICATE GROUND
SUPPLY. GENERALLY, THE NEGATIVE TERMINALS ARE
CONNECTED TO THESE PINS.
 ESP8266 BOARD ALSO HAS I2C PINS WHICH CAN BE USED
BOTH AS I2C MASTER AND I2C SLAVE. THESE PINS ARE USED
TO CONNECT VARIOUS I2C SENSORS AND PERIPHERALS IN
YOUR PROJECT. I2C INTERFACE FUNCTIONALITY CAN BE
CONTROLLED VIA PROGRAMMING, AND THE CLOCK
FREQUENCY IS 100 KHZ AT A MAXIMUM.
 ESP8266 NODEMCU HAS 17 GPIO PINS WHICH CAN BE
ASSIGNED TO VARIOUS FUNCTIONS SUCH AS UART, PWM,
I2C, IR AND BUTTON VIA PROGRAMMING. WHEN CONFIGURED
AS AN INPUT PIN, THE GPIO PINS CAN ALSO BE SET TO EDGE-

TRIGGER OR LEVEL-TRIGGER TO GENERATE CPU

INTERRUPTS.
 ESP8266 NODEMCU HAS 2 UART INTERFACES, I.E.,UART0
AND UART1, WHICH OFFER ASYNCHRONOUS COMMUNICATION,
AND MAY COMMUNICATE AT UP TO 4.5 MBPS. TXD0, RXD0,
RST0 & CTS0 PINS CAN BE USED FOR COMMUNICATION. IT
SUPPORTS FLUID CONTROL. HOWEVER, TXD1 PIN FEATURES
ONLY DATA TRANSMIT SIGNAL SO, IT'S USUALLY USED FOR
PRINTING LOG.
 ESP8266 HAS TWO SPI IN SLAVE AND MASTER MODES. THESE
SPIS ALSO SUPPORT THE FOLLOWING GENERAL FEATURES: 4
TIMING MODES OF THE SPI FORMAT TRANSFER. UP TO 64-
BYTE FIFO BUFFER.
 ESP8266 HAS A SECURE DIGITAL I/O INTERFACE WHICH IS
USED DIRECTLY CONTROL THE SD CARDS.
 ESP8266 HAS 4 CHANNELS OF PULSE WIDTH
MODULATION (PWM). THE OUTPUT CAN BE CONTROLLED VIA
PROGRAMMING AND IS FREQUENTLY USED FOR DRIVING
MOTORS AND LEDS. THE FREQUENCY RANGES FROM 100HZ
TO 1KHZ.
 THERE ARE THREE CONTROL PINS ON THE ESP8266: THE
ENABLE PIN (EN), THE RESET PIN (RST) AND THE WAKE PIN.
 THE ESP8266 CHIP WORKS WHEN THE ENABLE PIN IS HIGH.
WHEN THE ENABLE PIN IS LOW, THE CHIP WORKS ON MINIMUM
POWER.
 THE RESET PIN IS USED TO RESET THE ESP8266 CHIP.
 THE WAKE PIN IS USED TO WAKE UP THE CHIP FROM
DEEP SLEEP MODE.
WE KNOW ABOUT THE OTHER COMPONENTS SO NOT
ELABORATING FURTHER.

PIN DIAGRAM

AS YOU SEE FROM THE ABOVE PINOUT DIAGRAM THE WS2812B

LED STRIP HAS 3 PINS, 2 PINS FOR POWER SUPPLY 5V AND GND AND
THE MIDDLE PIN IS FOR DATA. EVERY LED HAS A CHIP WHICH
STORES THE DATA OF THE COLOUR WHICH IT MUST SHOW AND THE
DATA OF

THE NEXT LEDS. THE DATA FLOWS FROM THE STARTING TO THE
ENDING LEDS, MAKE SURE TO CONNECT THE DATA PIN FROM THE
MICROCONTROLLER FROM THE BEGINNING ARROW PRINTED ON THE
LED STRIP.

CONCLUSION

THIS PROJECT PROPOSES A NEW TECHNIQUE FOR

DEVELOPING THE STREET LIGHTING SYSTEM (SMART
LAMP),THIS TECHNIQUE AIMS TO REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF
ENERGY LOST FROM TRADITIONAL LIGHTING SYSTEMS, THIS
PROPOSED TECHNIQUE IS IMPORTANT IN REDUCING THE
PROPORTION OF LOST ENERGY WHILE RESPECTING THE
SAFETY AND SECURITY OF ROAD USERS DURING THE DARK.
THE CONTROL WAS IMPLEMENTED ON A PROTOTYPE FOR
UNIDIRECTIONAL STREET LIGHT SYSTEM CONSISTS OF THREE
LED LIGHTS. INFORMATION IS COLLECTED ON ROAD USERS BY
THE MOTION SENSOR PASSIVE INFRARED (PIR) SENSOR,
AND THE EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION BETWEEN UNITS
LIGHTING BY WIRELESSLY COMMUNICATION. USING THIS
INFORMATION, THE SYSTEM COULD CREATE LIGHTING IN THE
USER AREA AND THE AREA IN FRONT OF IT. THROUGH OUR
EXPERIMENTS WE HAVE VERY SATISFACTORY RESULTS, THIS
SYSTEM HAS ENABLED OPTIMAL MANAGEMENT OF ROAD
USERS BY PROVIDING THE NECESSARY LIGHTING TO THE
USER AREA. THIS WAS CONSIDERED A SOLUTION FOR SAVING
ENERGY AND SECURITY OF USERS. THIS SYSTEM COULD
EMBODY ON THE REAL LIFE.
