When the strength of the light falling on ldr increases the ldr resistance decreases, while if the strength of the light falls on ldr is decreased, its resistance increased. Following are the components which we are going to use for this miniproject of the street light circuit using ldr. Rtc is a computer clock most often in the form of an. So the voltage at the base of transistor increases when the brightness of light decreases, and once it gets past the minimum threshold voltage required at the base of transistor, it turns on the led. Lightdependent resistances ldr are cheap light sensors. When the light level is low the resistance of the ldr is high. We have tried this one in this tutorial but you can also try the second one mentioned below. Elonics electronics projects on breadboard 99,212 views 5.
Its like dark and light detector circuit but this time we are using arduino to get more control over light. Automatic street light control system using ldr and ic555 timer. Automatic street light controller circuit using relay and ldr. A less known lightdetector is the electret microphone, whose electret membrane functions as a perfectabsorber, but only detects pulsed light. Different types of light detectors are ldrs or light dependent resistors, photo diodes, photo transistors, etc. How to make automatic night light circuit ldr youtube.
In the time of darkness or when there is no light, the resistance of ldr is in the range of mega ohms, while in the presence of light or in brightness in decrease by few hundred ohms. Ldrs or light dependent resistors are very useful especially in light dark sensor circuits. A light detector or a light sensor is a device or circuit that detects the intensity of the light incident on it. In this circuit, we are making a light sensor using ldr with arduino to control a bulbcfl as per light condition of the room or outside area.
