Description

Video

It is a simple and powerful concept, which uses BC 547 NPN transistor as a switch to switch ON and OFF the street light system automatically.

It automatically switches ON lights when the sunlight goes below the visible region of our eyes. (Eg: in the evening after Sunset).

It automatically switches OFF lights when sunlight falls on it (i.e on LDR) (Eg: in the morning, by using a sensor called LDR(Light Dependent Resistor) which senses the light just like our eyes.
