Towards sustainable IoT-based smart mobility systems in smart cities

IoT-Based Smart Mobility Systems refer to transportation systems that utilise the Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to enhance urban mobility's efficiency, safety, and sustainability in smart cities. These systems integrate IoT devices, such as sensors, cameras, and GPS trackers, with advanced data analytics and communication networks to create a connected, intelligent transportation infrastructure. The issue of traffic congestion has emerged as a significant global concern due to the expansion of cities in terms of both size and population. Smart mobility encompasses various technological advancements in transportation. This paper evaluates key mobility factors in IoT-based smart mobility systems to establish an efficient and eco-friendly urban ecosystem. The study evaluates various mobility factors such as traffic congestion, pollution level, energy consumption, public transport efficiency, user satisfaction and overall sustainability. The overall sustainability efforts to minimise environmental impact include reducing carbon emissions, energy consumption, and pollution. This research focuses on how IoT can transform urban transportation systems to be more efficient, sustainable, and beneficial to residents, thereby contributing to the broader goal of creating smart, sustainable cities.
