Abstract

Electricity is widely consumed in the everyday life of an individual, especially when used for light bulbs. Excessive consumption of electricity greatly affects the ecosystem. Nonetheless, Arduino Uno is used by the researchers as a microcontroller to control a light bulb with the use of a Passive Infrared (PIR) motion sensor in order to enable a user to program their specified schedule for when it will only turn on. The researchers use a Descriptive - Evaluative Design in order to measure the accuracy and efficiency of this device. The device acquired good results and functioned as of how the researchers programmed it to be. Based on the study conducted, the Arduino Uno device made by the researchers consumed fewer kilowatts per hour, calculated in a span of five days.

Keywords
