IOT based Automatic Street lighting system
Winter Internship conducted by ExpertsHub at Smt.Kashibai Navale College of Engineering, Pune. Here, we worked on IOT applications and developed an app based Smart Automatic street lighting system using Raspberry Pi and ESP8266 WiFi Module. In case of automatic mode, the output of street lights was controlled depending upon LDR input. Further street light glows only when there is human intervention. For this proximity sensors were used. In case of manual mode, we can modify the output as per our requirement..
