What are the Challenges of
Building a Smart City?

Smart city is a place where digital solutions are leveraged to enhance the use of traditional networks and services, with the aim to benefit businesses and improve the quality of life for the residents under the fasting-growing population trend.

Lack of new tools,practices, or insights to make city smart
Create an intelligent, efficient, interconnected network for transporting data
Scaling existing infrastructure is cost prohibitive, unmanageable, and unsupportable

They are used in offices, retail spaces, hospitals, and educational institutions for energy management, comfort enhancement, and safety improvement, to transform buildings into a more efficient, sustainable. and user-friendly environment.

Smart Utility

In smart cities, infrastructure management relies heavily on sensors that efficiently monitor and control essential urban services.
Milesight's smart utility solution particularly focuses on energy efficiency and smart metering. For example:

Ultrasonic distance/level sensors

Ultrasonic distance/level sensors continuously measure water levels to detect blockages, overflows, and flooding in sewer systems. These sensors can also be attached to manhole covers to detect theft, damage, and unauthorized access. This allows for timely intervention and helps prevent environmental contamination, infrastructure damage, and public health risks.

Pulse counters

Pulse counters retrofit traditional indoor and outdoor water meters, allowing for remote data reading and transforming them into smart meters. These devices improve accuracy and efficiency in billing and consumption tracking, enabling utilities to monitor usage patterns and detect leaks or inefficiencies promptly.

Public Safety

IoT sensors are increasingly integral to enhancing public safety in smart cities. Milesight's devices enable real-time monitoring, data collection, and automated responses to emergencies, significantly improving urban resilience, particularly excelling in fire prevention and flood control.

Water level monitoring sensors

Water level monitoring sensors can be installed in rivers, reservoirs, and drainage systems to track water levels continuously. They detect rising water levels and issue early warnings during heavy rain or rapid snowmelt. This can assist local authorities in taking timely measures to mitigate flood impacts, such as activating flood prevention protocols and organizing timely evacuations.

Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) detector

Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) detector of Milesight is highly suitable for fire prevention due to its design, especially in harsh environments like forests. In addition to a wide CO₂ detection range, key parameters, such as temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure can be monitored. The system will trigger alarms to alert emergency services when necessary, thereby preventing potential fire hazards and ensuring public safety.

Environment Monitoring

Environmental monitoring plays an essential role in smart cities for urban management, improving public health, safety, and sustainability. The integration of advanced technologies and sensors allows municipalities to collect and analyze data on various environmental factors. Key types of sensors Milesight provides and their applications include:

Distance sensors

Distance sensors are used in trash bins to monitor fill levels in real-time. They optimize waste collection schedules and routes for garbage trunks.

Solenoid valve controllers

Solenoid valve controllers enable automated irrigation based on time, flow rate, soil moisture, etc. This automation optimizes water use and enhances conservation in urban landscapes.

Sensing cameras

Sensing cameras monitor urban green space in terms of plant growth conditions, pest infestations, and signs of vandalism, to take timely actions to maintain the health and aesthetics of green spaces.

Soil moisture sensors

Soil moisture sensors provide real-time data on soil conditions, such as levels of moisture, temperature, and electrical conductivity. They are essential for effective irrigation management and urban green projects.

Weather stations

Weather stations monitor levels of atmospheric conditions such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, barometric pressure, and rainfall to help understand local climate patterns and predict weather-related events.

Parking Management

Ultrasonic distance sensors detect vehicle presence in parking spaces by measuring the distance to objectives. Data and information can be shared via parking digital signs or mobile apps, helping drivers find vacant spots quickly.

Installing ultrasonic distance sensors for smart parking could reduce search time, traffic congestion, and emissions, promoting a cleaner environment. It also lowers driver stress. The data collected offers insights into parking patterns, aiding urban planning and traffic management.

Smart Industry/Factory

Smart industry sensors monitor and optimize manufacturing processes. Milesight offers a diverse range of industrial sensors for safety and efficiency in various scenarios, including:

Temperature and humidity sensors

Temperature and humidity sensors are used in industrial processes and cold chain management, to maintain quality standards and ensure optimal conditions.

Pipe pressure sensors

Pipe pressure sensors for monitoring pressure levels in various piping systems, including those carrying liquids and gases, preventing pipe failure and major bursts.

Leak detection sensors

Leak detection sensors for detecting the presence of water and other conductive liquids in pipelines and storage tanks to prevent costly damages.

Distance/Level sensors

Distance/Level sensors for measuring tank levels, especially in chemical processing and oil production industries, and monitoring the expansion of boilers.

Weather stations

Logistics and Asset Management

Smart cities leverage advanced technologies to enhance logistics and asset management. Milesight sensors collect data on asset location, condition, and status, ensuring efficient operations, resource management, and supply chain reliability.

Temperature and humidity sensors

Temperature and humidity sensors are used in cold chain transportation to continuously monitor the conditions of goods, ensuring the integrity and safety of temperature-sensitive items such as pharmaceuticals, food, and chemicals.

Asset tracking sensors

Asset tracking sensors use technologies like GNSS and WiFi to monitor the location of mobile assets. They help protect fixed assets such as patrol cars, trash bins, and equipment and minimize loss risk.
