Abstract
Recently, a large number of sensors have been deployed in urban areas, and they can be used for several purposes toward safe and secure urban life. Cost effective sensing and controlling for human activities are becoming possible. As pervasive sensing progresses, Human centric Cyber Physical System (HCPS) will receive much attention where effects of human activities are taken into consideration for designing and developing CPS based social systems. In this paper, we focus on safe and secure urban life and present two case studies: (a) classification of patients in emergency hospitals and (b) estimation of urban pedestrian flows. We also present our testing environment for HCPS.
