Developing Citizen Centric Application for Smart city Services

Abstract: In today�s life the population is increasing. People facing the problems regarding the wastage of electricity and finding the availability of parking area.To understanding these problems, we are implementing two modules. The first module is Automatic Street Light On/Off. Street light is the necessary part of a city�s infrastructure; It is flexible-lighting technology Using this technology system can control the power consumptions at the streets and reduce the manpower. LDR, Microcontrollers and Sensors, are used to implement this module. The second module is Smart Parking. The concept of this module is system can detect the available parking space based on image processing technique. This technique will detect the available parking space in parking area without wasting any time in search of the vacant place.
