The paper deals with the control the street lighting according to the intensity of sunlight using LUO Converter. To improve the efficiency of system, IR sensor is used. IR (infrared) sensor is the device which is used to detect and measure the infrared radiation in the environment. Infrared sensor has two components in it and they are transmitter and receiver. The transmitter sends out the infrared radiation. The radiation hits out the object and returns back. The receiver in the Infrared sensor receives the infrared radiation. This received signal is used to detect and measure the object. LUO Converter is the DC-DC Converter which is used to boost up the input voltage.This system is to operate the street lighting system efficiently by using the Infrared Sensor, PIC sensor and the LUO Converter. PIC belongs to the microcontroller family which is made with the technology of Microchip. The PIC Controller is used to generate the PWM signal for the power converter. The power of the light depends on the duty cycle of the converters. In most of the converters, there is inductor coupled but this converter don’t have inductor, so that there is no channel inductance, so which high voltage with high productivity.
