Energy efficient intelligent street lighting

The street lighting is based on decentralized control, where the street lighting autonomously adjusts the brightness depending on street activity. The intelligence of such a system will be able to adjust lighting effect and quality for individual activities, and can be used in a variety of different urban areas. The project is based on a research project regarding interactive street lighting, which carried out the initial studies on lighting efficiency, interaction and lighting quality in a street scape. This project will carry out a larger test-case in a more complex urban area as well as demonstrate the usage of new lighting fixtures for street lighting, integrated sensors and intelligent communication. This will lead to the development of a cost-effective low-energy street light, which doesn't compromise lighting quality. The project results are demonstrated in an urban area with complex traffic scenarios and different activities, and will lead to results not only in the field of efficient lighting technologies but also influence other applications within intelligent cities
