Abstract
ZigBee based remote control automatic street light system is smart and provides a safe night time environment for all road
users including pedestrians. The Street light Automation system can reduce energy consumption and maintenance costs and also
helps to reduce crime activities up to certain limit. The automatic street light system is mainly decided on the combination of
sensors and ZigBee technology. This system would provide a remote access for streetlight maintenance and control. It also
discusses an intelligent system that takes automatic decisions for ON/OFF/DIMMING considering movement of vehicle or
pedestrian and also surrounding light intensity. An automatic streetlight system is designed with the help of ZigBee modules
which can be help in detection of faulty lights and control it. For monitoring purpose, a graphical user interface (GUI) is
created.
I. INTRODUCTION
The smart system is developed using Arduino Uno This IDE is supported for every product of Arduino
microcontroller kit. Arduino is an open-source hardware kit components. In this project we are using two sensors and
with 8-bit Atmet AVR pre-programmed on-board wireless device module to accomplish the objective of the
microcontroller kit, with boot loader that uploads programs projects. Some of the sensors and its descriptions given
into microcontroller memory. They are different type of below.
Arduino based on their features it is being categorized some
of them are Arduino Deicimila, Arduino UNO, Arduino PIR sensor is a motion sensor, is used to identify the
Leonardo, Arduino Mega, Arduino Nano, Arduino Due, passage of vehicle or pedestrian, giving an input to turn street
Arduino LilyPad and many more light or street lights ON/DIM/OFF. LDR sensor is a light

Features of Arduino UNO are power: can be USB connection
or external power supply, with 7 to 12 volts Recommended.
The Arduino UNO provides power pins for other devices, the
variants are 5v 3.3v and vin IOREF pin for optional power.

take the data from all the streetlight through parallel
processing and convert them into serial communication.
The information is transferred point by point using ZigBee
transmitter and receiver modules and is sent to a control
terminal used to check the state of the street lamps and to
take appropriate measures in case of failure. The
transmission system consists of a ZigBee device that
receives information on the state of the lamps and sends it
to a terminal. This unit is powered by solar panel and
battery. At receiver side, base station system allows the
visualization of the entire lighting system. This unit
consists of a terminal with a serial Universal Asynchronous
Receiver-Transmitter (UART)/USB cable interface which
receives information about the state of the lamps provided Fig.3 control unit at the receiver side
