CSMIA Revolutionizes Airport Car Parking With
‘Parking Guidance System’ … APN News … 01 Dec 2023
Extract :
Gone are the days of circling the parking lot in search of a vacant spot.
The innovative Camera-Based Sensor system at CSMIA’s Terminal 2 parking, not only offers effortless parking but also ensures enhanced security surpassing all previous
standards.
The parking Sensor functions by offering real-time visual
guidance through RGB Occupancy LEDs for every
parking space.
These LEDs use live colour-changing lights to accurately reflect the
occupancy status of each individual parking bay.
Furthermore, this technology operates with exceptional accuracy
and high reliability in all conditions.
LED indicators will guide
you straight to the available parking spaces at any given time, effectively minimizing stress and uncertainty when it comes to
finding an available parking spot.
Another noteworthy feature is the real-time
monitoring system, which offers video clips and
images depicting parking occupancy. Parking supervisors
will utilize the heat map dashboard for up-to-the-minute
insights into the parking area. The sensor enables
customized zone parking, which defines distinct parking zones with unique LED
colours. This approach, hence, contributes to more efficient parking
management.
Furthermore, through the provision of occupancy reports and
alarms through scheduled events, the parking management team gains complete oversight and control over the parking facility. This enables them to respond efficiently to any necessary
actions.

At the outset , congratulations on launching of the mobile app which shows how many beds are available in each hospital in Delhi
In long run , this app can morph enough to transform the entire Healthcare Ecosystem in entire country
In your interview with a journalist last evening on NDTV, when discrepancies were pointed out, you made following remarks :
# Data in respect of “ Empty Beds “ are being uploaded by each concerned
Hospital authorities personnel
# Very often, this uploading gets
delayed
# Sometimes , the uploaded figures
are being fudged on purpose
As long as this ( data uploading ) process remains “ manual “ , depending upon a human , what you described above , will continue to happen !
The only PERMANENT and FOOLPROOF solution is to transfer this process from humans to TRANSPARENT –UNBIASED technology
Eg :
Simple CCTV cameras mounted on each bed – and laced with a simple software which detects whether a bed is empty or occupied – and uploading that STATUS into database, dynamically , every 10 minutes !
No big deal ! Really , extremely simple ! And neither very expensive
If you pull this off, you will set a benchmark for all other states
Dear Shri Mansukh Mandaviyaji
( Health Minister )
I have no idea whether Delhi Govt., ever got around to implement my
suggestion in Delhi hospitals
However I urge you to implement , above described CCTV-based indication of EMPTY BEDS
in our :
Ø 69,264 Hospitals ( 43,486 Private + 25, 778 Public )
Ø 18,93,986 Beds
( 11,80,000 Private + 713,986 Public )
Ø 94,964 ICUs
( 59,264 Private + 35,264 Public )
Then , make it possible for any citizen to be able to quickly search /
find , if there are any EMPTY
BEDS in a hospital nearby ,
by adding these DYNAMIC DATABASE ( automatically being uploaded by the software
installed in CCTV cameras mounted above each bed ) , in AYUSHMAN BHARAT website ,
where following SEARCH FEATURE already exists:
Ø State / Unit
Ø District
Ø Search by …… Facility Name / Facility Type / Facility
ID / Specialities , Services
Filters …

Please remember that ABDM has already issued to 27
CRORE ( 270 Million ) poor citizen , AYUSHMAN CARD , which enables that poor
family to avail of FREE medical treatment upto Rs 5 lakh / family / year
Obviously when one of their family member needs to be
hospitalized , they are keen to find an EMPTY BED in a nearby ABDM enabled hospital only , so that the treatment could be FREE

Following is
what BARD
has to say about my suggestion :
I think your suggestion of using smart CCTV
sensors/IoT technology to display the number of empty beds in Indian hospitals
online and dynamically is a great idea.
It would address the following
issues:
·
Accuracy: Real-time data would be much
more accurate than manually updated information, which can be delayed or
inaccurate.
·
Transparency: Patients and their families
would have immediate access to bed availability, reducing uncertainty and
stress.
·
Efficiency: Hospitals could better manage
bed allocation and utilization, leading to shorter waiting times and
improved patient care.
·
Reduced
paperwork: Automating bed status updates
would eliminate manual data entry, saving time and resources.
Here are some additional thoughts on your
suggestion:
·
Privacy
concerns: It's important to ensure that
patient privacy is protected. Cameras should only capture bed
occupancy, not personal details.
·
Cost-effectiveness: The cost of implementing this
technology should be weighed against the potential
benefits. However, with advancements in technology, it's becoming increasingly affordable.
·
Integration
with existing systems: The
system should be integrated with existing hospital information systems for
seamless data flow.
Overall, I believe that using smart CCTV sensors/IoT technology
to display empty bed information has the potential to revolutionize healthcare in
India.
It's a transparent, efficient,
and patient-centric approach that
could benefit everyone involved.
I hope your suggestion gains traction and
is implemented in hospitals across India.
Here are some additional points that
you may want to consider including in your blog:
·
The
potential for this technology to be used beyond bed availability, such as tracking patient flow and monitoring equipment usage.
·
The
possibility of using AI to analyze camera data and predict future bed
availability.
·
The
importance of data security and ensuring that
patient information is not compromised.
I believe that by addressing these
concerns and highlighting the potential benefits, you can make a
strong case for implementing this technology.
Good luck!
=========================================
And following is ChatGPT’s opinion about my suggestion :
Your suggestion to implement a system using CCTV
cameras and IoT technology to monitor and display the number of empty beds in
Indian hospitals is innovative and could significantly
benefit patients seeking medical care.
The
idea of employing technology to provide
real-time information on bed availability across hospitals can streamline the
process of finding medical care, especially during emergencies.
By incorporating this data into existing healthcare platforms like
AYUSHMAN BHARAT, it could immensely aid individuals in locating
nearby hospitals with available beds, ensuring timely treatment, and
making the most of the healthcare facilities provided.
Your
proposal addresses the existing challenges related to manual data updating and potential manipulation of
information regarding bed availability. By automating this process through a
transparent and unbiased technological solution, it aims to provide
accurate and timely information, minimizing discrepancies and
ensuring fairness.
The use of CCTV cameras equipped
with software to detect and update bed occupancy status every few minutes seems feasible and relatively
cost-effective.
Integrating this information into a comprehensive database accessible to
citizens through existing platforms could indeed set a benchmark
for healthcare management across the country.
Your suggestion aligns with the vision of leveraging technology for the
betterment of healthcare services, particularly for the underprivileged who possess AYUSHMAN cards and
seek free medical treatment. It emphasizes the importance of efficient resource
management and equitable access to healthcare facilities.
Implementing such a system would
require collaboration among various stakeholders, including government bodies,
healthcare institutions, and technology providers. Your proposal could serve as
a catalyst for enhancing the efficiency and transparency of healthcare services
in India.
