DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF IoT BASED STREET LIGHT FAULT, MONITORING AND CONTROLLING SYSTEM FOR GREEN CAMPUS OF IIUC

Abstract

The primary focus today is reducing carbon emissions to save the planet. The CFC layer is affected by carbon emissions as well, which raises the earth's temperature. In this era, most of the university campus authorities in Bangladesh have become inspired for making their campus green. Because of green technology, carbon emission is low. In order to fix a problem, we must identify the problem. Nowadays, in developing countries like Bangladesh, the street light system is currently used, where anyone can notice that the street light remains on during the day and not properly on at night. Besides, this existing system is costly from what people can see a lot of energy is being wasted which is a big financial loss for us. Light emitting diodes are the commonly used street lighting solution nowadays. The project is to create a model using some sensors to design a low-cost street lighting system that can save energy consumption and reduce manpower. In this project, considering three types of places for IIUC campus and checking the dimming slot time for the lights. Finally, scheming the electricity consumption cost according to the model having 10% consumption of power at dimming hours and 100% consumption at the rest of the times. After that, lighting cost is saved in comparison with existing street light system in the campus.
