Introduction

 Wastage of electricity is one of the main problems which we are facing

nowadays. In our homes, schools, colleges, or industry we see that
fans/lights are kept ON even if there is nobody in the room. This
happens due to negligence or because we forgot to turn the lights off or
when we are in a hurry. To minimize the wastage of electricity we have
created a smart sensor which turns on Lights when it detects human
motion and turns off the light when no one is present.
 This Project presents a possible solution where the appliances
automatically turned off when no one is in the room and can minimize
the electricity wastage.

Components
Arduino UNO
• Arduino is an open-source electronics platform
based on easy-to-use hardware and software.
• Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light on a
sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message -
and turn it into an output.
• It is microcontroller based on Atmega328p.
• The software used for writing, compiling &
uploading code to Arduino board is Arduino IDE

Relay Module
• A relay module is an electrical switch that is
operated by an electromagnet.
• The electromagnet is activated by a separate
low-power signal from a micro controller.
• When activated, the electromagnet pulls to
either open or close an electrical circuit.
• The relay module input voltage is usually DC.
However, the electrical load that a relay will
control can be either AC or DC

Passive Infrared Sensor

• PIR (passive infrared) sensors utilize the detection of infrared that is radiated from all
objects that emit heat. This type of emission is not visible to the human eye, but
sensors that operate using infrared wavelengths can detect such activity.
• It works on the principle that whenever it detects a change in infrared radiation, it
generates a digital output signal
• It consists of a Fresnel lens and a pyroelectric material.

Working

• PIR sensors detect movement by sensing

infrared radiation emitted by objects within
their range.
• When motion is detected, the PIR sensor sends
a digital HIGH signal to the Arduino board,
which reads the signal and determines that
motion has been detected.
• The Arduino board controls the relay pins,
turning them on by setting them to LOW when
motion is detected, and turning them off by
setting them to HIGH when no motion is
detected.
• The relay pins then send a signal to the
connected lights, turning them on or off
accordingly.
