Power Saving by Using Image Processing

This Paper Proposes Power Saving by using Image Processing. In India major problems of Energy and Power crisis because of it is developing country. We have many ways to save Electricity using Electric and Electronic Gadgets whenever and wherever is need and we can also switching them off, while not in use. But in many places such as large auditoriums and meeting halls, there will be a fan or an Air-conditioner keep running. Due to this, a large amount of electricity is wastage. We can prevent this wastage by using installing IR sensors to detect people. But these methods are quite costlier and required large areas. Therefore, we propose a new method of controlling the power supply by using Image Processing. In this paper, we have to take reference image and if any change in that reference image it will detected and change their status according to that and equipment will be turned on. In this way power wastage is controlled. We can use this system for dual purpose in which a camera is used for detecting people as well as surveillance. The main advantage of this system is a very simple, efficient and cheaper technique to save energy. Second big advantage is we extend this up to application like home automation etc
