“…Noise pollution is another area where they can contribute. For safety, these installations can be designed to notice strange activities and trigger alarms [55,182], and even listen for unusual noises like gunshots [183]. Additionally, they can look for signs of fire or other emergencies using special sensors [74,171].…”

As urbanization increases, streetlights have become significant consumers of electrical power, making it imperative to develop effective control methods for sustainability. This paper offers a comprehensive review on control methods of smart streetlight systems, setting itself apart by introducing a novel light scheme framework that provides a structured classification of various light control patterns, thus filling an existing gap in the literature. Unlike previous studies, this work dives into the technical specifics of individual research papers and methodologies, ranging from basic to advanced control methods like computer vision and deep learning, while also assessing the energy consumption associated with each approach. Additionally, the paper expands the discussion to explore alternative functionalities for streetlights, such as serving as communication networks, environmental monitors, and electric vehicle charging stations. This multidisciplinary research aims to be a pivotal resource for both academics and industry professionals, laying the groundwork for future innovation and sustainable solutions in urban lighting.

As a responsible citizen of any nation it is to accept that knowingly no part of energy must get unutilized or wasted. The content in the manuscript is a real-time research work carried out to identify the energy loss due to the day-on-street lights within 80 sub villages belonging to one Mandal of Tirupati District (India) due to human inattention. The research findings are very incredulous that considerable amount of energy which can be recovered is getting wasted and hence immediate action is deemed necessary. The presented findings may influence the readers to some extent and make them realize to focus on the means of recovering the real time energy loss at-least to the extent possible. The proposed content in the paper could no doubt be helpful for the policy makers and concerned electricity authorities to take immediate action to avoid unwanted loss of electricity within their purview.
