India to lead & show the world – The new IOT world in areas of- Smart City Projects, Smart Grid & IOT Lightings, Agritech

19th January, 2021

India is striving meticulously to enhance the life of its citizens residing both in the urban and rural landscape, as both physical and digital technologies are proliferating our daily lives, the digital space has witnessed major transformations in the last couple of years and as per industry experts would continue to evolve itself
The latest entrant to the digital space is the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT can also be defined as interplay for software, telecom and electronic hardware industry and promises to offer tremendous opportunities for many industries. The number of Internet-connected devices (12.5 billion) surpassed the number of human beings (7 billion) on the planet in 2021, and by 2030, Internet-connected devices are expected to number between 26 billion and 50 billion globally. India’s Smart City projects initiative is driving innovations both in electrification, IOT lightings, data connectivity, and agriculture.

The Indian Government’s plan of developing 100 smart cities in the country, for which Rs. 7,060 crores have been allocated in the budget could lead to a massive and quick expansion of IoT in the country. Also, the launch of the Digital India Program of the Government, which aims at ‘transforming India into digital empowered society and knowledge economy’ will provide the required impetus for development of the IoT industry in the country.

The various initiatives proposed to be taken under the Smart City concept and the Digital India Program to setup Digital Infrastructure in the country would help boost the IoT industry. IoT will be critical in making these cities smarter. Some of the key aspects of a smart city will be:

∙ Smart urban lighting.

∙ Waste management.

∙ Smart city maintenance

∙ Tele-care &Citizen safety

∙ Smart Grid &Smart Energy

∙ Water Management

∙ Smart parking & Intelligent Transport System

Among other things, IoT can help automate solutions to problems faced by various industries like agriculture, health services, energy, security, disaster management etc. through remotely connected devices. Internet of Things involves three distinct stages:

1. The sensors which collect data (including identification and addressing the sensor/device),

2. An application which collects and analyzes this data for further consolidation and,

3. Decision making and the transmission of data to the decision-making server. Analytical engines, actuators and Big data may be used for the decision-making process.

Several countries like US, South Korea, China among others, have taken lead in their preparedness for taking advantage for IoT. Thus, various ideas are being worked upon to come up with the implementation of those that can bear a maximum number of sustained benefits. India’s skilled workforce is working tirelessly, at an individual and collectively in the form of organizations and business enterprises such as Equitel.

IOT Lightings For Smart India

India is witnessing a higher necessity to conserve its environment and save energy. Hence, electricity which is the most versatile form of energy used by human civilization to prosper economically is being smartly associated with the Information and Communication Technology ICT to develop and install energy saving lighting solutions in the form of the IOT lightings to serve the following functions-

  • Smart lightings are aimed to provide more personalized lighting experiences such that they can be regulated via algorithms so as to save the energy by regulating the voltage and in the intensity of light depending on the requirement of an individual as per the time of the day, user’s presence, the purpose for using the light for instances like reading or watching television or having dinner, etc.
  • Connecting the lighting system in the form of LED lights for a locality or for an entire city to a centralized regulating server is highly appreciated by the citizens across India. Automating the operation of such lights for commercial or public utility can help save the cost of developing stand-alone operating facilities for such lights with reduced operations and maintenance costs.
  • With proper electrical site survey, the LED street lights based on solar energy erected on poles can be used to collect and transmit data with respect to location specific-pollution, weather reports, light requirements, vehicular movements, etc.

Smart Technology For Agriculture

India is an agrarian economy with more than half of its population still working in the agriculture sector. Based on traditional practices, India is now steering its agricultural developments on the wheels of information technology under the banner of agritech for Smart India. The need for agritech is driven by the following factors-

  • Increasing connectedness amongst farmers and keeping them aware of the latest agricultural developments.
  • Easy implementation of government schemes and fund channelization.
  • Reducing reliance on weather, by providing proactive information for crop harvest.
  • Enhance the supply chain and logistics to keep the availability of seeds, fertilizers, and equipment’s transparent.
  • Implement technology-driven sustainable agricultural practices to enhance crop yield.

Thus, working closely in conjunction with information technology to boost infrastructural development can help India in a long way to become a leading economic power and increase employment generation. Moreover, Equitel is also working diligently by providing LED lights, Advanced IOT based technologies & instruments to Power Sectors, Export & Import of commodities and software development to bolster the vision of Smart India.
