Design and Implementation of User-Friendly and Low-Cost Multiple-Application System for Smart City Using Microcontrollers
This addresses the need for affordable and user-friendly smart city solutions, but it is incremental as it combines existing technologies without a major breakthrough.
The paper tackles the problem of creating integrated smart city applications by designing a system with seven contributions including smart street lights, home security, and traffic management, resulting in prototypes that are claimed to be efficient, reliable, and cost-effective for large-scale implementation.
Our proposed system has seven main contributions, i.e., Smart street lights, Smart home, Bio-metric door and home security system, Intelligent traffic lights management and road security system, Private and smart parking, Intelligent accident management system and Smart information display/ notice board system. Our prototypes / products employ Arduino UNO board, Node MCU, Ultrasonic sensor, Fingerprint module, Servo motors, GSM, GPS, LEDs, Flame Sensor, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi module etc. We are very confident that our proposed systems are efficient, reliable, and cost-effective and can be easily tested and implemented on a large scale under real conditions.
