Some of the components of smart cities are as follows:
Smart Traffic Management
AI and IoT can implement smart traffic solutions to
ensure that inhabitants of a smart city get from one
point to another in the city as safely and efficiently as
possible.
Smart Parking
Smart Parking solutions can determine whether the
parking spots are free or occupied, and create a real-
time parking map. This will reduce the waiting time to
find an empty space which would help in reducing traffic
congestion and pollution.
Smart Waste Management
Waste collection, its proper management and
disposal is an essential city service. Adopting AI for
smart recycling and waste management can provide a
sustainable waste management system.
Smart Lighting
Street lights are necessary, but they consume a lot of
energy which can be reduced with the use of smart
lighting. Lamp posts can also be fitted with additional
sensors, or serve as Wi-Fi network hotspot.
