Parking Lights are extremely useful especially during night. These lights will assist you to park vehicles in
your garage properly and avoid damage of your vehicle from hitting nearby objects. This parking lights
circuit uses light beam from headlight of your vehicle to detect the incoming vehicle and turn the garage
lights accordingly. You can operate this circuit in manual mode to hold the light control as well.

WORKING OF PARKING LIGHTS CIRCUIT:


This circuit uses a simple LDR to detect the incident light from the vehicle. It was paired with a simple
variable resistor RV1 to form a voltage divider which feeds the bias voltage for the transistor. The
Transistor was used as a switch here to turn ON/OFF the relay connected with it. The Relay in turn will be
used to turn a Lamp or any high power light connected to it.

The circuit can be operated in both Auto and Manual mode where a SPDT switch was used to toggle the
mode. When Auto mode is selected Transistor will be used as switch which will be controlled by the LDR
and RV1 pair. This pair automatically turns the Transistor and in turn relay when light is incident on it.
Meanwhile in Manual mode a simple switch was used to turn the relay ON and OFF.
