Abstract: The mainstay of the project “Automatic room light controller using PIR Sensor and Ardiuno” is the importance of
seismological research around the globe is very clear. Where the lights in the room will automatically turn on upon detecting a
human motion and stay turned on until the person has left or there is no motion. Initially, when there is no human movement,
the PIR Sensor doesn’t detect any person and its OUT pin stays LOW. As the person enters the room, the change in infrared
radiation in the room is detected by the PIR Sensor. It can be used to turn ON and OFF the lighting system of the home
automatically by detecting the presence of humans. This in turn will make the Arduino to turn OFF the relay (make the relay
pin HIGH) and the room light will be turned off quickly as per the time delays sets in the program.
Keywords: Aurdino UNO, PIR sensor, Relay unit, room light.
I. INTRODUCTION
Scientific discoveries delivered us luxury and comforts. Technology has become vital and essential part of our lives. Tremendous
advancement in technology is succeeded in last few years. Electrical energy has become an crucial part of human life. In recent
years the people are looking forward for the automation in their day to day life, and even now the people are excited to save energy
consumed to reduce the expenditures.
People are becoming lazy to switch off the lights while leaving the room, so the large amount of energy is wasted if the light is
remain ON in the absence of human being. Generally, in public and private sector companies, offices, school and colleges most of
the people are not interested to switch OFF the electronic machines like fan, light, etc.
II. OBJECTIVE
Automatic Room Lights System using Arduino is a very useful project as you need not worry about turning on and off the switches
every time you want to turn on the lights. The main components of the Automatic Room Lights project are Arduino, PIR Sensor and
the Relay Module. Out of the three components, the PIR Sensor is the one in focus as it is the main device that helps in detecting
humans and human motion. In fact, the Automatic Room Lights project can be considered as one major application of the PIR
Sensor.
IV. MODULES
A. Arduino UNO Pin Description
The Arduino Uno is an open-source microcontroller board based on the Microchip ATmega328P microcontroller and developed by
Arduino.cc. The board is equipped with sets of digital and analog input/output (I/O) pins that may be interfaced to various
development boards (shields) and other circuits. The board has 14 digital I/0 pins (six capable of PWM output), 6 analog I/0 pins,
and is programmable with the Arduino IDE (Integrated Development Environment), via a type B USB cable.
B. PIR Sensor
PIR Sensor is short for passive infrared sensor, which applies for projects that essential to identify human or particle movement in a
certain range, and it can also be mentioned as PIR (motion) sensor, or IR sensor. Since its powerful function and low-cost benefits,
it has been implemented in tons of projects and widely accepted by the open-source hardware community for projects related to
Arduino and raspberry pi. All this can support the beginners to learn about PIR sensor more easily.
C. Relay Module
The Relay module is a distinct hardware device used for remote switching. The Relay module houses two SPDT relays and one
wide voltage range, optically isolated input. These are brought out to screw-type terminal blocks for easy field wiring. Relays are
switches that open and close circuits electro mechanically or electronically.

VII. CONCLUSION
From the proposed system we can conclude that an approach is taken to control the room lights using various devices. As nowadays
enormous amount of energy is wasted in daily life. With the help of this system the energy wastage can be preserved and can be
contribute to large amount of power saving. The total effective cost of system is very less.
