Intelligent Street Lighting using V2I |
| ملخص فكرة المشروع |
This project aims to improve how street lighting works in cities by making it smarter and more efficient. Instead of keeping streetlights on all night whether the road is busy or empty, our system turns the lights on only when they are really needed. The idea is to save energy and make roads safer by adjusting the lighting based on the presence of vehicles. When a car approaches, the nearby streetlights brighten up, and when the road is empty, the lights dim down or turn off. What makes this system special is that it can be added to existing streetlights without needing to replace anything. It’s a simple upgrade that gives the lights the ability to respond to traffic in real time. City officials can also monitor the system through a computer, making it easier to detect problems and keep everything running smoothly. The system can also help prevent issues before they happen by checking the health of each light regularly. Overall, the goal of the project is to help cities use less electricity, reduce maintenance costs, and make roads safer for everyone, all while using a practical and affordable solution that can be expanded to different areas over time. |
| المشكلة التي يحلها المشروع |
Traditional street lighting systems operate on fixed schedules or simple motion sensors, which often results in unnecessary energy consumption, reduced lamp lifespan, and increased maintenance costs. These systems lack the intelligence to adapt to real-time traffic patterns or environmental conditions, leading to inefficiencies and safety concerns, especially in urban areas with fluctuating vehicle density. Our project aims to solve these problems by developing an Intelligent Street Lighting System that leverages Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communication, cloud-based vehicle detection, and computer vision. By dynamically adjusting the street lights based on the presence and movement of vehicles, as well as adapting the color temperature according to weather and location-specific conditions, the system significantly reduces energy waste while enhancing road safety and visibility. This smart approach not only promotes sustainability and operational efficiency but also lays the groundwork for more responsive and adaptive urban infrastructure. |

| هدف المشروع |
The goal of this project is to design and implement an intelligent street lighting system that improves energy efficiency, enhances road safety, and supports the development of smart city infrastructure. By integrating Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communication, cloud-based vehicle detection, and computer vision technologies, the system aims to control street lighting dynamically based on real-time traffic conditions. Additionally, the project seeks to adapt lighting characteristics—such as brightness and color temperature—according to environmental factors like weather and location. Ultimately, the project aspires to reduce energy consumption, extend the lifespan of lighting components, and provide a safer, more sustainable, and responsive urban lighting solution. |
| المخرجات الرئيسية من المشروع |
The main outputs of the project include a fully functional prototype of an intelligent street lighting system, capable of real-time interaction with vehicles using Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communication. The system includes a smart control unit that processes vehicle presence data from multiple sources—such as cloud-based tracking, wireless communication, and computer vision—and responds by automatically adjusting the lighting intensity and operation of street lamps. Another key output is the ability to change the color temperature of the light based on weather conditions and the specific requirements of different areas. Additionally, the project delivers a software interface for monitoring and managing the lighting system remotely, along with documented performance analysis showing improvements in energy efficiency and system responsiveness. These outputs collectively demonstrate the potential of the system to be integrated into modern smart city infrastructure. |
