Improving the autonomous lighting system and equipping pedestrian crossings

Abstract

The aim of this study is to improve the developed autonomous energy-efficient lighting system for a pedestrian crossing. The implementation of new elements and solutions based on the latest research and materials has been justified. Increasing efficiency and functional capabilities is relevant for the energy crisis situation in Ukraine. The methodology of this work involves the use of a new ecological material to increase the wear resistance of the light-emitting coating. The modernization of the solar panel design to improve energy supply efficiency. The introduction of a structural element – a charging module – to expand the functionality of the lighting system. Due to significant damage to Ukraine's energy infrastructure, pedestrians have found themselves in a high-risk accident zone, and the proposed modernization is largely aimed at creating safe conditions for them. The creation of a three-component mixture for the road surface and painting will allow obtaining durable and reliable road marking. The mixture consists of paint, luminescent material, and "basalt scaly." The 3D model of this lighting system has been improved with changes in the design of solar panels and the addition of charging elements. The conclusion justifies the expediency of the changes made.
