Abstract-Traditional road lighting systems consume a large amount of energy. When the ambient light falls under a certain threshold, all the luminaries are turned at full-power without considering user perception and interaction. The feeling of safety experienced by users and user-lighting system interaction via consumer electronics (CE) devices should be investigated. For this study, we establish a software-controlled testbed that allows changing the brightness level of each street luminary remotely. In this paper, we describe the system architecture of this testbed deployed on a street along with the future work directions.
