Appendix 1
The table below provides a list of suggested -emerging technologies- projects that needs Smart Apps with some
functionality’s and ideas for their user interface (mostly mobile based): -
S. No
1.
Project Topic
Some Functions
Smart Home
1) Smart Security – Trespass Alert
2) Home Automation
3) Control home appliances to manage energy Consumption
4) Alert critical situations - assist handicapped and old-age people
2.
Efficient Garbage
Collection System/
Smart Municipality
Detection, monitoring and management of wastes:
1) Monitor Bins Waste Level
2) Manage Garbage Vehicle Movement (Optimize routes)
3.
Smart Car
Car engines could monitor their own mechanical efficiency, and, if it
fell below a certain level, dial into a garage computer and be
remotely tweaked back to some optimum level, all without leaving
our driveway.
4.
Smart Classroom
1) Mark Attendance
2) Connect to Smart Board (project PPT, Transfer files)
3) Manage Electricity controls (Lights/ A.C)
4) Screen recorder (for smart boards)
5) Communicate with Technical staff (issues reporting etc.)
5.
Smart Healthcare
6.
Smart Fridge
1) Record Vital Parameters (Heartbeat, Stress Level, BP etc.)
2) Communicate (send emergency signals to doctor and relatives)
3) Maps and contacts of nearest healthcare centers
4) Book Appointments
5) Order Medicines
6) Track Medicine Expiry Dates
7) Remind Medicine Doses
8) Remind activity (exercise, walking etc.)
A scanner can swipe over products to reorder things (from
Amazon) when supplies get low - determines the stock item
below a defined quantity or threshold limit (by weight, quantity,
etc.), and the product expiration date and eventually determining
the purchase of food items. It can also notify the user.
1) Eliminate food spoilage
2) Healthier Lifestyle by providing nutritional values of contents
7.
Smart City: “Smart
Parking System, Smart
Water, Smart
Electricity, Road
Traffic”
8.
Smart Government
Smart Road Traffic
1) Monitor Traffic Lights (Automate timing, React to changing
traffic, malfunctions)
2) Prevent Congestion
3) Predict potential congestion
Public Transport (Trains/Metro, Buses)
1) Monitor patterns of how people use public transport
2) Safety and Punctuality
3) Ticket Sales
4) Traffic Information
5) Predict passenger load in each train car – maximize load
6) Avoid delays
Smart Parking
1) Use GPS data from drivers to determine parking map in real
time – show free parking spots
2) Notification when nearest sport is free and guidance on the
map
Utilities – Electricity, Water, Gas
1) Smart Meters
2) Consumption Patters
3) Remote Monitoring
Street Lightening
1) Maintain and control streetlamps – dim, brighten, switch
on/off

4) Drones to identify security issues and report them
Tourism
Using beacons, push notifications on smart phones based on
location and give people additional information about a place in a
city, or an art object in a museum.
Environment
Using sensors to detect:
1) leakage in pipes
2) Air quality – pollution and amount of pollutant emitted
