  • Abstract:
  • The project aims to develop an automatic road lighting system using LED strips to enhance public safety in hilly regions by improving visibility at dangerous hairpin bends and curves. Curve detection and alarm features will be embedded into the system, using sensors to trigger directional lighting and audible warnings for upcoming turns. This approach will enhance driver awareness, reduce the risks of accidents, and promote safer roads. Improve Road Safety: Enhance visibility on dangerous hairpin bends and curves, reducing the risk of accidents in hilly regions. Efficient Lighting: Use energy-efficient LED strips to provide consistent and reliable lighting in challenging terrains. Automatic Operation: Develop a system that automatically activates the lighting based on environmental conditions and road usage. Scalability and Adaptability: Design the lighting system to be scalable and adaptable to various road conditions and regions with similar challenges. Road safety is an issue at the hilly places because it lacks visibility due to sharp curves and hairpin bends, where accident risks increase. This project develops an Automatic Road Lighting System with LED strips designed to ensure better safety. An ESP32 microcontroller and voice recording modules, along with LED indicators, will be incorporated to make this system dynamic based on vehicle movement. It lights the direction of travel and issues voice-guided warnings. The proposed solution implements a roller-based mechanical setup for the vehicle with voltage sensors monitoring the position that would initiate both directional lighting and audible alerts for the driver, thereby enhancing a driver's heightened awareness and reduced risk of getting lost or involving accidents. Such a system designed to be cheap and energy conscious is easily scalable and ready for easy deployments in hilly and rural environments.
