In order to reduce energy consumption due to lighting, a good control mechanism should be established and more efficient lighting products should be designed. Conventional lighting products consume a lot of energy and pose a threat to the environment. And also, because of these lighting products which are based on time-dependent on-off control mechanism or manually switched on-off mechanism, sufficient efficiency and saving cannot be achieved. In this study, to minimize these drawbacks, a LED driver system and an Internet of Things based control system is presented for parking lot lighting. Instead of conventional lightings, LED lighting is used; and an efficient LED driver circuit is designed with the light level control option. To ensure the synchronous control of LED lighting, Internet of Things, one of the rapidly growing technologies, is integrated into the system. All data from the lighting nodes are sent to the cloud database via internet connections of the wireless sensor nodes. And a control software which is designed processes the data in the cloud database and writes back the light levels of each lighting nodes to the cloud database. As a result, an efficient lighting environment is created, unnecessary lightings are prevented, in case of failure of the lighting nodes necessary repairs can be planned easily, and also necessary statistical reports can be created according to the data locates in the cloud database.
