Smart Lighting Solutions for Different Road Applications
A smart lighting system should be designed around the operating conditions of the road rather than simply adding a control device to a conventional street light.
LIKELITE develops smart outdoor lighting configurations for:
Urban roads and municipal streets
Residential and community roads
Main roads and arterial roads
Highway and roadway approaches
Industrial parks and access roads
Commercial districts
Smart city infrastructure
Public-area roadway lighting
Roads requiring adaptive lighting control
Depending on the project requirements, the lighting system can combine motion detection, ambient-light control and scheduled operation.
This approach allows the lighting system to respond to actual road conditions instead of operating at full output throughout the entire night.
How the LIKELITE Smart Road Lighting System Works
The Kampala reference solution uses three control functions:
Microwave Motion Sensor
Detects movement within the configured sensing area and allows the lighting system to respond to changing traffic or pedestrian activity.
Light Control
Uses ambient-light conditions to support automatic switching between daytime and nighttime operation.
Timer Control
Provides scheduled operation according to the project's operating requirements, allowing lighting periods and control logic to be configured for different time periods.
The three functions can work together as part of an integrated operating strategy.
For municipal road projects, this provides a practical way to manage lighting operation without relying entirely on manual switching.
Kampala Urban Road Smart Lighting Upgrade
Project Location: Kampala, Uganda
Client Type: Municipal / Urban Infrastructure Project
Application: City Road Lighting
Supply Quantity: 1,000 sets
LED Street Light: 80W
Certification: PVoC
Warranty: 2 Years
Energy Saving: 28%
Control: Microwave Motion Sensor + Light Control + Timer Control
The Kampala project was designed for an urban roadway environment where lighting reliability, energy consumption and operating control were important considerations.
LIKELITE supplied 80W LED street lights with a high-efficiency 150 lm/W configuration and integrated smart control functions.
Compared with conventional fixed-operation roadway lighting, the solution was configured to reduce unnecessary operating time and power consumption through intelligent control.
The project demonstrates how a relatively simple control architecture can be incorporated into a municipal street-lighting upgrade without changing the basic function of the roadway lighting system.

Lighting Design and Engineering Support
Smart lighting hardware is only one part of a successful roadway project.
LIKELITE supports project development from initial site information through lighting design and installation coordination.
Onsite Metering
Project information can be collected to understand existing lighting conditions, pole locations, roadway dimensions and electrical requirements.
DIALux Evo Layout
DIALux Evo can be used to evaluate roadway illumination, lighting distribution, pole spacing and other key design parameters before equipment selection is finalized.
Litepro DLX Layout
For projects requiring detailed luminaire layout and photometric evaluation, Litepro DLX can be incorporated into the engineering workflow.
AutoCAD Layout
CAD drawings can be prepared for project coordination, installation planning and technical documentation.
AGi32 Layout
AGi32 can be used where the project requires additional lighting calculation and engineering verification.
Project Installation Support
LIKELITE can provide technical coordination for installation, including luminaire mounting, wiring configuration, control-system integration and project commissioning requirements.
Why Smart Lighting Matters for Municipal Road Projects
Municipal lighting systems often operate for long periods every night. A lighting system that remains at maximum output regardless of traffic conditions can consume more energy than necessary.
Smart control provides an additional operating layer between the lighting fixture and the roadway environment.
The objective is not simply to install more technology. The objective is to achieve a better balance between:
Lighting Performance + Safety + Energy Consumption + Operating Control + Maintenance
For project owners and municipal procurement teams, this can create measurable value over the operating life of the lighting system.

Designed for EPC Contractors and Municipal Buyers
LIKELITE's smart lighting solutions are designed for professional project procurement rather than retail applications.
The solution can support:
EPC contractors
Municipal purchasing departments
Road and infrastructure contractors
Smart city integrators
Lighting engineering companies
Infrastructure developers
Lighting brands requiring ODM supply
Bulk project buyers
Project requirements can be reviewed before quotation so that the proposed lighting configuration matches the actual application.
Typical project information includes:
Road Type → Road Width → Pole Height → Pole Spacing → Mounting Arrangement → Required Lux → Uniformity → Operating Hours → Control Requirements → Local Certification
This project-first approach helps reduce the risk of selecting a luminaire based only on wattage or unit price.

Built for Outdoor Road Conditions
Urban road lighting equipment must operate under changing weather and environmental conditions.
The Kampala solution uses an aluminum-alloy housing with IP66 protection, helping protect the luminaire against dust and water ingress in outdoor environments.
Additional electrical protection includes:
10KV surge protection
1.5KV voltage resistance
AC 220–240V input
50Hz operating frequency
Operating temperature: -20°C to +55°C
The final protection and electrical configuration should always be verified against the actual project environment and local requirements.
High-Efficiency LED Configuration
The reference solution uses Lumileds SMD2835 LED technology with a rated lighting efficiency of 150 lm/W.
The 80W configuration provides a balance between energy efficiency and roadway lighting performance, while the smart control system provides an additional mechanism for reducing unnecessary operating consumption.
LED Source: Lumileds SMD2835
Efficiency: 150 lm/W
CCT: 5000K ±300K
CRI: Ra ≥80
Rated Power: 80W
Lifespan: 30,000 hours
Actual project performance should be verified through the final photometric design, installation conditions and operating strategy.
