Desenvolvimento de um sistema de iluminação interna utilizando energia solar fotovoltaica como uma solução de iluminação para o Projeto Litro de Luz.

Abstract

This report presents the steps for the development of a device that presents itself as a solution to the lack of internal lighting in homes that do not have electricity or which have, however, inadequately. The product consists of the development of a low cost lighting system, being a more ecological and financially viable alternative in the replacement of petroleum lamps, candles, clandestine electrical connections, among other unsafe means of interior lighting. Therefore, the present alternative was developed to avoid direct human contact with the toxic smoke from the petroleum lamps, the accidents with candles and other devices that use fire for the purpose of lighting, and the very use of clandestine electrical connections that can cause fires and shocks. Furthermore, the device is a cheap technology consisting of plastic bottles, batteries, solar panels and LED lamps. The system allows users to perform their day-to-day activities, which mostly require light, in a safe and healthy way.
