Parinama (Sanskrit for transformation) is a SENSOR-BASED INTELLIGENT LIGHTING SYSTEM developed by the Postgraduate and Research Dept. Of Comp Sc.
It is an endeavour towards optimized energy utilization...
Working Principle: The LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) measures ambient light levels and updates the controller. If the light level falls below the threshold (dusk or night), the controller activates the relay. The relay switches on the light.
When the light level rises above the threshold (dawn or daylight), the controller deactivates the relay, turning off the light.
