- We look at 10 ways artificial intelligence can be used within smart cities.
- Artificial intelligence can help smart city projects in several ways
Cities are continuously innovating with the help of artificial intelligence. Due to the AI technology used within smart cities, these cities are then able to control the traffic, waste, and maintenance as well as predict the energy consumption, pollution risks, and effects on the environment.
Smart cities cause lesser effects on climate change, smarter decisions, and improved quality of life, in this list we take a look at ten ways artificial intelligence helps make this possible.
Security cameras
When a crime is reported, security camera footage is typically reviewed; however, this does not prevent or stop crime. Artificial intelligence-powered security cameras can analyze footage in real-time and detect criminal behavior, which can then be reported and dealt with immediately. These cameras can also detect people based on their clothing, allowing technology to find suspects faster than ever before.
Maintenance
RoadBotics is a company that has developed artificial intelligence technology that can analyze road imagery and then assess issues and produce cost-effective solutions. This enables cities to know when and where repairs are required, and to deal with them while saving money. This type of technology also improves city safety by ensuring that problems are not overlooked.
Prediction
Smart cities that are innovating with AI technology can better predict the future needs of the people. Using energy tracking technology allows cities to know when new energy sources are needed or when more sustainable methods can be implemented. Some AI technology can also predict and help plan property developments, this means houses are put onto the market during periods they are needed.
Pollution control
Scientists have developed technology that uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to analyze current pollutants and forecast pollution levels for the next two hours. This type of technology enables authorities to make decisions in advance to reduce their environmental impact.
Parking system
Car parks can detect cars that have outstayed their hours by using license plate recognition technology, which can also enforce payments and tickets. When AI systems are integrated throughout car parking areas, space availability can be displayed to awaiting users, and some more advanced technology can recommend spaces based on the car.
Public transportation
AI has been used to innovate public transportation for use in smart cities. This technology enables users of public transportation to receive and access real-time updates and tracking, improving timing and customer satisfaction. Within cities, automated buses are also planned to reduce emissions, improve routes, and increase frequency.
Waste Management
Smart cities are beginning to use artificial intelligence within their waste management, this type of technology allows cities to track recycling, and identify what can be recycled in the area. Some cities in Sydney take this a step further and use AI-powered robots to sort rubbish, as well as clean areas such as lakes and rivers.
Traffic Management
The transportation industry is implementing AI technology to reduce traffic and accidents. CIRCLES, a traffic management technology, can predict and reduce traffic using deep learning algorithms, which can then reduce traffic pollution. AI can also be used in traffic camera systems to detect road crimes in real-time, making them more manageable.
Energy Tracking
Within smart cities, artificial intelligence can be used to analyze and track business and citizen energy usage; with this data, it can then be decided where to involve renewable energy sources. This can also show cities where energy is wasted and how to save it.
The Environment
Artificial intelligence can be used in smart cities to assess their impact on the local environment, global warming, and pollution levels. Using AI and machine learning in pollution control and energy consumption allows authorities and cities to make well-informed environmental decisions. AI is also used in smart cities to detect CO2, which can then be used to make transportation decisions.
