The document describes an automatic room light control system using an Arduino microcontroller and PIR motion sensor. The system is designed to automatically turn lights on when motion is detected by the PIR sensor, and turn lights off after a period of no motion. The system components include a PIR sensor to detect motion, an Arduino Uno microcontroller for processing and control, and a relay to control power to the lights. When motion is detected, the PIR sensor sends a signal to the Arduino, which then activates the relay to turn on the lights. After a set time of no motion, the Arduino deactivates the relay to turn off the lights. The system is intended to automatically control room lights to save

INTRODUCTION
Intelligent Energy Saving System, the aim of the project is to save the energy. In this project we
are using various sensors, controlling and display.
However, in this project work the basic signal processing of various parameters which are
temperature, LDR, Smoke sensor. For measuring various parameters values, various sensors are
used and the output of these sensors are converted to control the parameters. The control circuit
is designed using micro-controller. The outputs of all the three parameters are fed to micro-
controller. The output of the micro-controller is used to drive the LCD display, so that the value
of each parameter can be displayed. In addition to the LCD display micro-controller outputs are
also used to driver a relay independently. This relay energizes and de- energizes automatically
according to the condition of the parameter.
LITRRATURE SURVEY
Literature survey is the study of already established systems and collection of information
which helps in doing new tasks. Vibhuti et al [1] proposed a system which operates with control
of relays and with the use of WAGO PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) and Arduino Uno.
Switching operation of devices such as tube light, fan, AC, etc. can be operated spontaneously
by using PIR sensor and on the basis of environmental conditions. In real-time implementation,
automatic control is done by sensor data and manual control is done by android application.
But, difficulty in this paper is the controlling and monitoring of devices done by WAGO PLC
and Arduino Uno both. These operations can be done by using only Arduino Uno. Maslekar et
al [2] proposed a smart lighting system in which Raspberry Pi has used. Raspberry Pi is
monitoring lights and fans simultaneously. In the absence of person room lights and fans will
automatically turns OFF. Energy is preserved by using this smart lighting system. The
experimental results of this system have shown that 50% energy is conserved. But the difficulty
is Raspberry Pi is more expensive than Arduino Uno. Automatic Lighting and Control System
for Classroom in which electrical light is controlled by Bluetooth, PIR sensor and relay. To
switch ON or OFF the light Bluetooth module is connected to Arduino Uno which sends voice
command from Arduino Uno by using the mobile android application. The experimental results
have shown the 50% energy is conserved. But this paper can be implemented by removing the
Bluetooth module as well [3]. In [4], the disquisitions speak about automatic room light system
by using visitor counters operation. Depending upon the human presence, the room lights ON
or OFF. There is no need of manual operation for switching. The PIR sensor is used to the
human presence which is at the entrance of room. As](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/ankitkumarchaudhary-191223180334/85/Automatic-Room-Lights-Controller-Using-Arduino-PIR-Sensor-5-320.jpg)

visitor counter is used, there is increment in the counter when person enters in the room and this
leads to turn ON the room light which is controlled by microcontroller program. If person exits
the room, the counter decremented and this leads to turn OFF the lights. When all persons
left the room then only lights in the room switched OFF. The difficulty in this system is that
the door of room should not allow more than one person at a time. Vahid et al [5] proposed a
system whose control is depend on Arduino microcontroller, network communications and
Modbus industrial protocol. Arduino Ethernet shield and a wireless router device is used to built
the network communication. The specific Android application is used to load the Modbus
program into mobile or Windows software named "mypro" and on Arduino board, Arduino
code loaded through USB (Universal Serial Bus) cable. There is interconnection between
Arduino Ethernet Shield and mobile through Ethernet cable and router. By connecting to router,
user can control and monitor the appliances easily. The Table 1 summarizes the available
methods in Literature survey.

These hardware components are discussed below: PIR Sensor as Sensing Unit The sensing unit is used to get input parameters from surrounding which is required for automation. For particular area of room, the following points must be kept in mind to perform operation in good order. Continuous changes in human motion Capability Sparing (Economical) Here, the sensing unit used is PIR (Passive Infrared) sensor which is as shown in given Figure 1.
- 7. 7 This PIR sensor is "Passive Infrared", which is also called as "Pyroelectric", or "IR motion"sensors. The working of PIR sensor is to detect the motion of a person when person comes in the sensing range of the sensor. The specialtyof this sensor is it is little, affordable, low power, easy to use and do not exhaust. Hence, this sensor is used in many home automation appliances. Arduino Uno As Processing Unit Arduino Uno is a microcontroller in which ATmega328 microprocessor is used which is shown in the Figure 2.
- 8. 8 It has 6 analog input pins and 14 digital input or output pins which can be used as PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) outputs. It has its own programming language. The crystal oscillator frequency of this microcontroller is 16MHz. It has USB cable which can simply connect with computer, power barrel jack, reset button and ICSP (In Circuit Serial Programming). Each pin of the Arduino Uno is operated at 5V.The programming language of this microcontroller is not complex. Relay as Controlling Unit A relay is an electrically operated device as shown in Figure 3. A relay is a digital switch that controls much higher currents and voltages. This device is widely used in power protection. The benefits of this device are small in size, stability and long-time reliable and it can be also used for both ac and dc systems. Relay has three terminals that are normally closed terminal, normally open terminal and common terminal. It has three pins GND, VCC and input signal. Software Used Software used to control this system is Arduino IDE (Integrated Development Environment). This software is used to write the program and compile it to the Arduino Uno board. Therefore, the arduino software commands control the arduino board, sensing devices and another circuitry.

- 12. 1 WORKING OF THE SYSTEM Arduino is a microcontroller which provides open source platform to perform software and hardware operations. This is an advantageous project as Arduino Uno and PIR Sensor is used thereby lights in the room will turn ON automatically by detecting a human motion and stay turned ON as long as the person remain present in the room. At the beginning, when no human is present in the room, the PIR Sensor’s OUT pin is in the LOW mode. Hence, light of the room is OFF. The output of the PIR Sensor goes HIGH as the person enters the room. PIR Sensor detects the Infrared (IR) radiation in the room. The Digital pin 8 of Arduino Uno is used to connect the Data OUT pin of PIR Sensor. When this becomes HIGH, the activation of relay takes place by Arduino Uno. So that relay pin is in the LOW mode; because relay is an active LOW device. Now, the lights will turn ON. This light maintains its state as ON as far as there is motion in the room. If the person exits the room or takes a nap, the motion in front of sensor stops and there will be no changes in the IR radiations. Therefore, Data OUTpin of PIR sensor will be in LOW mode. This leads to turn OFF the relay. So, relay now is in the HIGH mode. Hence, room light will be turned OFF. CONCLUSION The paper has introduced the idea of automated homes and proposed a method which saves power consumption by system. This Automated Gadget Control System having the interconnections between the home appliances and sensors for controlling and monitoring the device. Automated home is a vast system that having multiple technologies and its applications that can be used to provide control and security of the homes easily. FUTURE WORK There are many technologies that can be used in automatic lighting systems to make the system more accurate.To make the system more professional GSM (Global System for Mobile) module can be used to get notifications. There are some sensors that can be used to control and secure the home. For example, pressure sensor used to detect the occupancy which will be placed outside the door. Image processing can also be used to detect a person’s presence by using digital camera.
