A smart city is a technologically modern urban area that uses different types of electronic methods, voice activation methods and sensors to collect specific data. Information gained from that data is used to manage assets, resources and services efficiently. In 2021, Oman's Muscat Municipality has signed an agreement with Signify International to implement Smart Street lighting project in the Omani capital. Muscat Municipality is using more than 20,000 connected street lights which are providing up to 85 percent energy saving and reducing maintenance costs Signify International is using different types of sensors in controlling smart street lights. smart streetlights may require more technology, such as humidity sensors, proximity sensors, sound sensors and IR sensors for ON and OFF purpose. By using assembly/Arduino language, keeping in mind finite state concepts, you are required to simulate the functionalities of the Signify International unit to control street lights. Students are free to choose the implementation of sensors (humidity sensors, proximity sensors, sound sensors and IR sensors) Triggering conditions/events could be passed to microprocessor directly (pulses) or programmatically. Marking scheme: Criteria Allocated marks 25 marks Read the inputs from sensors. Based on the input, correctly take the appropriate action (warning, shutdown etc..). 25 marks Clarity, structure and comments of the code 10 marks 10 marks
