THE ROLE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN IOT PRACTICAL AND INNOVATIVE APPLICATIONS OF IOT AND IOT NETWORKS SMART CITIES AND SMART MOBILITY
Authors: Vempati Ms. Smita , N Dr. Nalini , Lingam Dr. M. Shankar
Published: June 2024

An urban region that uses technology to provide its citizens with better living and working conditions is referred to as a "smart city." Although the structure of the city is defined differently by various governments or smart city initiatives, themes like sustainability, connectivity, data-driven planning, and smart utility systems are prevalent. As a matter of fact, more than 50% of the world's population resides in cities or other urban areas; this percentage could rise to 70% in the future due to increased urbanization and migration of individuals seeking employment in these locations. However, this implies that in order for cities to maintain a high standard of living while being energy-efficient and environmentally benign, they must have improved infrastructure and planning. Stated differently, cities must transform into smart cities. Combining machine learning, which uses the insights gained from the data, with the Internet of Things, which collects data from sensors, makes this possible. Numerous implementations usually concentrate on one or two aspects of a smart city rather than giving the entire thing a makeover. A city might, for instance, add sensors to monitor air pollution, utility meters driven by the Internet of Things, traffic lights with sensor capabilities, or a robust public transit network. IoT may be used to enhance municipal efficiency in several areas, including traffic management, smart street lights, EV charging ports with IOT connectivity, air quality and pollution monitoring, and waste management

We find sensors everywhere. They can be found in our cars, in mobile phones, in industries where carbon dioxide emission is monitored and controlled and even in the vineyards where the soil condition is monitored. Research on WSN was initiated way in 1980s, and since processors, radios and sensors were made available for very less price integrated on a single chip, from the year 2001 extensive research and develop menthes been carried out in this area. Internet of things (IoT) also came in to picture slowly during the same period. Kevin Ashton was the first person who proposed the concept of IoT in the year 1999 [1] and these things form a virtual network where each object is uniquely identifiable. The objects include living things like plants, animals, human beings, specific parts of the body and non-living things like vehicles, machines, buildings, parks etc. The objects in these IoT communicate with each other through various kind of technology, where as wireless communication is considered as the technology used in various domains.

The Gesture-Based Keyboard project aims to revolutionize the way we interact with computers and devices by utilizing hand gestures as an alternative input method. This project combines the power of Raspberry Pi, a versatile microcontroller, and an IR sensor to enable intuitive and hands-free interaction. By capturing and interpreting hand movements, users can simulate keyboard inputs without physical key presses. The hardware setup involves integrating the IR sensor module with the Raspberry Pi, ensuring secure connections and proper power supply. The sensor detects infrared signals reflected off hand movements, which are then processed and analyzed to recognize specific gestures. On the software side, the project leverages various libraries and technologies. The RPi. GPIO library is used to interface with the Raspberry Pi's GPIO pins, while the input library enables the simulation of keyboard inputs. A Python script is developed to read the IR sensor's output, process the data, and detect gestures based on predefined thresholds or machine learning algorithms. To achieve accurate gesture recognition, the project involves extensive calibration and testing. Calibration ensures optimal sensitivity, noise reduction, and adaptability to different lighting conditions. Additionally, debounce techniques are implemented to handle unintended multiple gestures and false detections. The gesture-based keyboard system offers several advantages. It enhances accessibility for individuals with physical disabilities who may have difficulty using traditional keyboards. Moreover, it provides a hands-free input option, enabling users to interact with devices when their hands are occupied or when touch-based input is impractical

Harmonisation of Legal Rules on Chemical Castration as a Lex Specialist Based on The Principle of Legality in The Perspective of Criminal Law
Authors: Hermawanti Kori
Published: June 2024

Conflicts between several legal regulations and the existence of a legal vacuum make it problematic that chemical castration can be implemented, especially in Article 66 paragraph (1) of Law no. 1 of 2023 does not yet accommodate the implementation of chemical castration as an additional crime, so there is a need for changes and harmonisation of related legal regulations. The method used in this research is a qualitative method. The application of police medicine as an alternative to the execution of chemical castration has not yet received definite legality regarding the procedures and other rules for carrying out chemical castration in the police environment. In the implementation of chemical castration in Indonesia there are still several things that need to be clarified, especially for those carrying out the duties or executors. The existence of overlapping policies requires that efforts be made to harmonise both the health law perspective, medical practice, medical ethical code, human rights perspective, and also based on the Indonesian Criminal Code, and derivative legal regulations that must be harmonised.
