dreaming our JABALPUR as …… “A Smart City”
Smart City Rapid innovation and adoption of technological toolsby municipal governments across the globe has given rise to a new nomenclature in urban planning – Smart City
FIVE BROAD CHARACTERISTICS ARE EVALUATED TO CONCLUDE AN EXISTING CITYTO BE A SMART CITY –
Smart Government and Economy
Smart Environment
Smart Mobility
Smart Living
Smart People
Smart MobilityMajor Problems in JABALPUR :
Condition of Roads
Encroachments
Congestion at Market place
How Density Based ..?? Its done by sensing the traffic density at every junction.
The signal timing changes automatically…
Intelligent Sensing
INFRARED SENSORS { Pair of IR Transmitter
and IR Receiver }
PIEZOELECTRIC TRANSDUCER
INTELLIGENT CAMERAS
INTELLIGENT CAMERAS…. These have capability of Detecting even the Type of Vehicle, and other details too…….
Why Microcontroller...??
Single Chip Microprocessor System
System as Low Cost Product
Microcontroller contains full implementation of standard IC’s
ADVANTAGES : Avoid wastage of time due to traffic
Fully Automatic
Low Power Consumption
Easy access to traffic lights
Using IC’s like one used in this, Microcontroller,
we can add up more advancement in traffic system
Drawbacks …
IR SENSORS : If in between comes other Obstructions, it will disturb the density reading….
Piezoelectric Transducer : Calibration is needed perfectly, it should have high sensitivity for accurate density reading…..
Intelligent Cameras : Ineffective in night, need expert cameras…. That can be costlier
POWER GENERATION USING TRAFFIC (by Speed Breakers )
There are Two ways of getting the power through Speed Breakers
Mechanical Pistons
Piezo-electric Transducer
WE CAN USE THE ENERGY OF TRAFFIC TO LIT THE STREETS LIGHTS AND RUN TRAFFIC SIGNALS ...!!
Globally around 205 Terrawatt hours of Electricity is consumed annually on running the traffic signals only.. The GOVERNMENT can save a lot of money by mounting this INNOVATION on roads
Using Speed Breaker beneath which there will be a Series of AIR PISTONS...
Generated Electricity is stored in the BATTERY which will run the Traffic and Street Light
Mechanical Air Pistons
Electronic Piezo electric Transducer
Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting is a new and innovative step in the direction of energy harvesting….
Artificial piezoelectric materials such as
PZT (Lead Zirconate Titanate) are used….
The energy harvesting via Piezoelectricity uses direct piezoelectric effect......
Advantages of Using Piezoelectric Materials • Small size • Broad frequency range • Light weight • 2-wire operation • Ultra low noise • Wide dynamic range • Wide temperature range • Simple signal conditioning • Cost effective implementation
