Circuit Documentation

Summary

This project is a street light control system that uses an Arduino UNO microcontroller to manage street lights based on inputs from LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) and PIR (Passive Infrared) sensors. The LDR sensor determines whether it is day or night, and the PIR sensors detect motion. At night, three LEDs are turned on via a transistor switch, and an additional LED is turned on when motion is detected.
