The combination of smart lighting and IoT allows lighting devices to collect real-time data and analyze it via cloud computing. For instance, smart streetlights can detect surrounding environmental parameters such as brightness, temperature, and humidity, and adjust the light intensity accordingly. At the same time, the devices can report their operational status to the managers, allowing for timely fault detection and maintenance.

Moreover, IoT technology provides even more possibilities for smart lighting systems. Through big data analysis, urban managers can gain insights into the energy consumption of each area, enabling them to make more accurate energy-saving decisions. IoT technology transforms city lighting from a mere lighting tool into a smart management platform, helping cities improve resource efficiency, enhance environmental quality, and elevate residents' living experiences.
