Abstract

The design and construction of an automatic solar light-controlled system utilizing remote control and Bluetooth as switching devices aimed to provide an efficient, user-friendly, and sustainable lighting solution. The system harnesses solar energy to power lighting during night time, with the flexibility of remote and Bluetooth-enabled control. Through a series of development phases, the project successfully achieved its objectives by integrating modern control technologies and renewable energy sources. The resulting system demonstrated energy efficiency, reliable performance, and ease of operation. Challenges encountered during developed were addressed effectively, leading to a functional and dependable system. The project offers valuable insights into optimizing energy capture, enhancing user control mechanisms and exploring future expansions. Recommendations include regular maintenance, upgrading control range, integrating mobile applications, and improving system performance through optimized solar panel placement and routine testing.
