But the electrical energy consumed for street lighting is a significant concern for developing countries, especially when the lights are on at night during the absence of objects. Also, maintaining the street lighting system is costly, and manually controlling and repairing the lights is unfeasible. Considering the above problems, this paper presents an IoT-based street lighting system that mitigates the above challenges by automating the system. The proposed system will run entirely on solar power systems, which draw clean, pure energy from the sun. As the object gets closer, the lights will become brighter and reduce the brightness as objects travel away. The system also cleans the lights once every week by servo motor. To determine whether the light needs repairing, replacing, or not, an ESP8266 Wi-Fi...

It reduces the amount of physical labor required. In a traditional home, we cannot monitor the electrical appliances, environmental conditions, home security, and cannot control them remotely. Typical residential systems cannot automatically change a systems state in response to a specific scenario. However, this study proposes an IoT-based smart home automation system that works in different modules to automate the entire home. In one module, the system determines the human movement inside the room by using a IR sensor and detects the light level using an LDR sensor. The light level will be adjusted based on the output of the IR sensor. Also, the system operates the fans and heater based on the home temperature and humidity by using an AM2301 sensor. In another module, a flame sensor aids the detection of fire, MQ-135 sensor measures the air quality. In case of fire is detected in the home, the system will als...
