Abstract
Solar Energy and Smart Technology are only a few of the constantly desired features of consumers as they seek personal improvement within their different contexts, whether it be for personal and general gain. The full use of these improvements continues to increase within engineering disciplines and other fields. This project is an asset to the construction and housing industry within Jamaica and other countries desiring to take advantage of solar energy. A solar powered semi-inground swimming pool is designed with a unique smart lighting system for energy savings, aesthetics, and customer satisfaction. The project integrated various skill and considerations across civil, electrical, industrial, and mechanical engineering disciplines for the fully operational and uniquely designed pool. This pool was designed as a commercial pool with features that facilitate the needs of different genders, ages, and persons with special needs. The entire workspace area includes a pool system, an electrical power room, pumping station, changing room and bathroom facilities and other miscellaneous considerations.
