Abstract This paper proposes the low power consumption of energy by automatic detection of human body and thus saving the energy by using Thermal Sensor. By using Thermal Sensor we can automatically detect the human body and thus we can control our appliances .In today real world we use the technology like ON/OFF of electrical appliances with the help of manually. By operating manually we can sometimes there is a chances of failure to turn off the electrical appliances thus it consumes the power without any need which causes the wastage of electricity as well as money. Thus the proposed system auto detects the human presences in a particular room by using thermal sensor. The microcontroller thus keeps continuous watch on infrared receiver. When object passes through receiver then the receivers get obstructed, this obstruction to the receivers is thus detected by the microcontroller (ATmega8-AVR family) thus the sensor detect the human being emission of rays and inform to the micro-controller about the presences of human body. Then the micro-controller check the input coming from the sensors and thus switches ON the electrical appliances and if nobody is present then it will switch off automatically.

1. Introduction
According to survey in India, the energy consumptions in India are growing tremendously in recent
few years, so it is necessary to adopt the energy saving policy in the country. It is assumed that in
2030 the energy requirement will get double [1]. In residential sector the energy requirement is
growing extremely fast due to the large scale of production of home appliances. Due to increase in
size of the appliances it requires more energy to operate that result in more power consumption.
Generally in public or private offices, people usually are not interested or fail in putting OFF the
light, fan and other electrical appliances which cause the wastage of electricity and it does not
perform the basic operation it required to be done [4].
In recent year the industry are focusing on lower power consumption devices. Many industries are
using their R&D to develop such devices that control the device power consumption automatically.
As many system have been develop to help us to reduce power consumption by putting the device
to standby mode automatically. In this paper, we are going to present the system which will control
the electrical appliances such as light, fan with the help of thermal sensors [3]. In thermal sensor
based electricity saving system we are trying to develop the system which will control the electrical
appliances by automatic detection of human being in the premises of the sensor.
2. System Structures
The Thermal Sensor Base Classroom Electricity Saving System consists of processor, thermal
sensors, LCD display, power supply and electrical appliances [5].

If a person entering to the monitored area, the PIR (thermal sensors) activates and identify the
person, gives the signal to micro-controller. The Infrared energy emitted from the human being
body is focused by a Fresnel lens segment. Then only the PIR (thermal sensor) activates. After

sensing the PIR sensor no of person count and turn on devices such as tube, fan, notice board in
class room, And when student goes he automatically shut down all appliances [7]. By using this
system we can control electrical appliances according to the room no of PIR sensor, which is
connected to the micro controller. To display the no of student in classroom and statues of
thermal PIR sensor mode operation we are using the LCD display. When PIR detect is correct then
16x2 LCD shows message on it if your card is correct you must enter in classroom. In this project
we use 16X2 character LCD display on which we can write up 32-character message [2]. This
display has 8 data line D0 to D7 three control line R/W, EN, RS and two supply line VCC And
ground 1 contrast control line and two line for backlight supply Interfacing of display is give in
detail of 8051 micro controller book (Ayala)[3]. If student enter in class then PIR sensor detect
where he is setting that person area fan/tube is on automatically.

Compact and complete, easy to use Pyroelectric Infrared (PIR) Sensor Module for human body [6]
detection. In corpora ting a Fresnel lens and motion detection circuit High sensitivity and low
sound the output is a standard 5V active low output signal.
Module provides an optimized circuit that will detect motion up to meters away and can be used in
burglar alarms and access control systems. Cheap and easy to use, it's perfect for alarm systems,
motion-activated lighting and robotics applications The Output can be connected to
microcontroller pin directly to monitor signal or a connected to transistor to drive DC loads like a
bell [1], buzzer, siren, relay, opto-coupler (e.g. PC817, MOC3021),etc. The PIR sensor and Fresnel
lens are fitted onto the PCB. This permits the board to be fixed inside a case with the detecting lens
protruding outwards.
Pyroelectric devices, such as the PIR sensor, have elements made of a crystalline substance that
generates an electric charge when exposed to infrared emission. The variations in the quantity of
infrared striking the element change the voltages produced, which are calculated by an on-board
amplifier. The device encloses a special filter called a Fresnel lens, which focuses the infrared
indications onto the component [2]. As the ambient infrared signals change quickly, the on-board
amplifier trips the output to indicate signal. The PIR (Passive Infra-Red) Sensor is a Pyroelectric
device that detects motion by measuring changes in the infrared (heat) levels emitted by nearby
matters. This motion can be noticed by examining for a sudden change in the nearby IR patterns.
When motion is sensed the PIR sensor outputs a high signal on its output pin. This logic signal can
be identified by a microcontroller or used to drive a transistor to switch a higher current load status
of sensor monitor on display.
For automation purpose embedded controller (ATmega8) can continuously scan it can ON or OFF
the corresponding relay. There are two relay is used in our project. The function of this relay is to
turn on and off the electrical appliances. When we are use 12volt DC operated relay that purpose
we are use switching transistor is use because embedded controller output is zero or one(5v),we
cannot drive 12volt relay for that purpose we use driving transistor as shone in figure [6]. Which h
is connected to pin PD2 and PD3 of embedded controller can switch ON that driving circuit and
relay.PIR Sensor: - The PIR Sensor Switch can detect the Infrared Rays released by human being.
The light or any supplementary electrical application can be activated automatically by the active
presence of a human body within the detection range / coverage area & when there is no presence
the light will be deactivated automatically [2].
3. Working Principle
The PIR Sensor senses the motion of a human being by the change in surrounding ambient
temperature when a human body passes across.
Then it switches on the lights to which it is connected.
The lights will remain ON until it detects the motion.
As sensor unable to detect the motion it will switches OFF the lights.
During the darkness, the LUX modification knob allows you to adjust the luminosity based on
which the lighting load will either switch on / off automatically.

this system, we can control the flow of power in the classroom. When the persons enter in the
room the electrical appliances are activated automatically and after exit it is switch off
automatically. This model reduces human efforts. Use of this kind of technique will help us to save
the energy as well as it save our money.
