The Livable Planet – A Revolutionary Concept Through Innovative Street Lighting And Surveillance System Based On Internet Of Things And Light Fidelity Communication

Abstract

Street lights are the most unnoticed and ignored objects in our everyday life. Ever imagined that these standalone objects have the power to revolutionize our world and the way we live ? We see street lights as one of the most valuable public assets that have a powerful role toplay in making cities energy-efficient, resilient andfuture-ready, and in turn making a liveable planet Earth. We propose a solution based on the new age technologies, the Internet of Things (IoT) clubbed along with Light-Fidelity (Li-Fi) and sensor solutions that help meet the goals going far beyond lighting, such as energy efficiency, traffic and crime monitoring and traffic management. This setup can come handy in emergency situations such as natural disasters like floods, thus saving numerous valuable human lives.
