Project Description: *Description*
The 3 in 1 Tree is an artificial tree, a smart streetlamp, and a sitting bench all in one product.
I used microalgae to clean air pollutants just like real trees, and I also used solar energy, artificial intelligence, and coding for the LED lights to be smart streetlamps.
Microalgae produces half of the oxygen in the world and is about 50 times more efficient than normal trees. It's also a liquid, so it saves more space since it can fit in one container, and can be placed in urban pockets in a big city. It doesn’t take much time to grow, so it can help us address global challenges because of the rapid air-pollution rising in big cities.
The Solar Panel charges the battery that turns on the LED lights to be more eco-friendly.
There is a Relay as a switch connected between LED and Battery controlled by Arduino which has been programmed in Pictoblox using Machine Learning.
Using a Webcam, it can see whether there’re people, vehicles, animals, or nothing on the street.
The LED lights soff during the day, turn on at night when there are people or vehicles, and stay off at night if only animals or nothing is around.
This makes the 3 in 1 Tree smarter and saves more energy.
I hope this innovation can bring sustainable solutions for a better future in modern society.
