POWER SAVING SYSTEM FOR SHOPPING MALLS WITH VISITORS COUNTING

ABSTRACT
The project provides a method for automatic control of devices (BULB, LEDS) throughout a shopping mall. A unique architecture of occupancy sensors includes entry/exit sensors for detecting movement through doorways. The bidirectional sensors are used to sense the entry and exit. This project is designed around a microcontroller which forms the control unit of the project. The central embedded controller controls the devices according to the no. of persons entered into the shopping mall in response to the entry/exit sensors. The present project provides a system for saving power of a shopping mall. The hall of the mall is provided with bidirectional entry and exit way sensors. All the input devices such as sensors and output devices such as LCD, BULB and LEDs are interfaced to microcontroller. The microcontroller controls the devices (BULB, LEDs) according to the inputs from the IR sensors.
