Abstract

Smart cities provide critical infrastructure for a network of sensors, cameras, cables, wireless devices, and data centres that allow city authorities to deliver essential services more quickly and efficiently. Intelligent cities also make the use of sustainable construction materials and reduce energy consumption much more environmentally friendly. Practical usage of technology facilitates the construction of an effective transport management program, upgrades healthcare services, and establishes a broad contact network to interact with all businesses, workers, and other governmental interrelationships. The urbanization pattern is rising. Cities around the world face tight budgets and ageing facilities with further population shifts to metropolitan regions. Future communities need to be healthier, resilient, effective, relaxed, engaging, and intelligent. This chapter highlights the need for smart sensors in smart cities for remote control technologies. The smart temperature sensors are elaborated in detail. The applications of smart temperature sensors in smart cities also discussed with examples such as water management system, energy conservation, street lighting system and waste management.
