A huge amount of electrical power of many countries is consumed in lighting the streets. However, vehicles pass with very low rate in specific periods of time and parts of the streets are not occupied by vehicles over time. The system that automatically switches off the light for the parts of the street having no vehicles and turns on the light for these parts once there are some vehicles that are going to come. Logically, this system may save a large amount of the electrical power. In addition, it may increase the lifetime of the lamps. This system automatically controls and monitors the light of the streets. It can light only the parts that have vehicles and help on the maintenance of the lighting equipment's. Conventional street lighting system in areas with a low frequency of passerby are online most of the night without purpose. The consequence is that a large amount of power is wasted meaninglessly. The purpose of this work is to describe the intelligent street lighting (ISL) system, an approach to accomplish the demand for flexible public lighting system. The present system is like, the street lights will be switched on in the evening before the sun sets and they are switched off the next day morning after there is sufficient light on the roads. This System gives the best solution for electrical power wastage. Also, the manual operations of the lighting system are completely eliminated. In this project, sensor used are, light dependent Resistor (LDR) to indicate a day/night time and the photoelectric sensors to detect the movement on the street. Result show that the saved energy may reach up to 65% and an increase of the lifetime of the lamps of 53%. The used as brain to control the street light system
