Introduction
Automatic Room Light Controller With
Bi-directional Visitor Counter
In todays world, there is a continuous need for
automatic appliances. The objective of this project is
to make a controller based model to count number of
persons visiting particular room and accordingly light
up the room automatically. Here we can use sensor
and can know present number of persons.

Aim of our Project

The aim of our project is to make a controller
which can sense if any person enters the room
and it lights up the room automatically and
also counts how many person are entering the
room or going out of it. It is made to unwanted
prevent electric power waste in schools,
colleges, offices and houses. This whole
process is operated totally automatically by its
sensors.

Circuit Diagram

Working Principle

Working Principal

Working Principal
If the sensor 1 is interrupted first then the microcontroller
will look for the sensor 2, and if it is interrupted then the
microcontroller will increment the count and switch on
the relay, if it is first time interrupted.
If the sensor 2 is interrupted first then the microcontroller
will look for the sensor 1, and if it is interrupted then the
microcontroller will decrement the count.
When the last person leaves the room then counter goes
to 0 and that time the relay will turn off, and light will be
turned off.

Advantages of Automatic Room

light controller
Low cost
Easy to use
Can be implemented in single door
Can be used for counting purposes
Can be used for automatic room light control

Disadvantages

It is used only when one person cuts the rays

of the sensor hence cannot be used when two or
more persons cross the door simultaneously.
When anybody is inside the room and we need to
switch off the power then weve to do it manually. So,
in this case we fail to automatically control the light.
In seven segment display board we can count up to a
certain no of people entering into the room. If the no
of body entering the room is greater than the
maximum limit of the display board then we fail to
count it.

Other Applications
For counting purposes
For automatic room light control

Conclusion
The theme of this project when merged with
certain established technologies can be quite
effective in number of countries like Germany,
France & Japan etc. which control the train. This
Project is useful in developing countries and
this project has a bright future. This project
helps us to control the light of a room
automatically and counts the number of
persons/visitors entering and leaving the room.
By using this circuit and proper power supply
we can implement various applications such as
fans, tube lights etc.
