Abstract

As India’s population continues to grow, more citizens will move to cities leading to massive urbanization. India needs to ¬adopt smarter ways to manage complexities by developing smart cities. The Smart Cities projects involve creating an innovation network between governments and academic partners leading to excellence in the development. Devices like Drones are going to be predominant in achieving tasks to be done in these smart cities. Arduino as a supporting software along with required hardware support is a bliss to develop small applications required for smart cities. It is open source and hence supporting to use. Arduino is a company of a different type It is a project and user community that designs and manufactures microcontroller-based kits for building digital devices and interactive objects by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller that can sense and control objects in the physical world. In this paper we present the Arduino environment and its use to build smart city applications.
