Smart Traffic Signal

Problem:

1. In cities most of the road junction points have traffic signal. These traffic signals are consuming low power due to the usage of LED indicators. They are powered with EB lines. So, when the supply is failed the signals are not working. This causes for the congestion in the road crossing. Accidents are possible due to this. Emergency vehicles like ambulance are getting affected due to the congestion.
2. Few persons are violating the traffic rules. They are passing the road when the RED signal is on.
3. In few road junction points the traffic signals are not functioning due to the requirement of traffic police to operate the signal control unit at there.

Solution:

1. If the solar powered signals are used, the first problems can be solved. The signal indicators are using low power. So, the implementation of the solar power supply for this purpose is easy.
2. Surveillance camera can be used to sense the registration number of the vehicle which is violating the traffic rules.
3. Timer based traffic signals have been implemented in few crossings, remaining junction points also can be enabled with timer based signals.

Automated E - Payment Centre

Problem:

1. Online payment method is supported by many venders. E-recharge, E-bill payment, E-Tax payment are available in the internet. But most of the people don’t have the internet facility or don’t know to use the E-Payment method in internet.
2. Because online payment seems to be complex and intruders attack also possible.
3. The user may not get clear idea about the process.

Solution:

1. Automated E-Payment Centres can be implemented like ATM centres.
2. The user has to select the payment for which he is proceeding.
3. Regarding to that selection the options will be provided.
4. After getting the required details the he will be allowed to enter into the payment gateway using his Credit or Debit card.
5. Due to this specialized machine the complicated process can be made easier.

Agriculture related issues and solutions

Problem:

1. The labour charge for the works in the agriculture field is seems to be high when the yield is low.

Solution:

1. E-Governance method can be used to avail the facility for the people to deal everything in the online or by using mobile applications.
2. Payment for the process also can be done through online.
3. Few people may not know to use these facility, they don’t have the experience to use online applications and mobile applications. So, few service centres can be functioned to avail these facilities.

Agriculture
