The smart route to complete and foolproof security using facial recognition technology.

What is SmartEye Attendance?

SmartEye Attendance is a Mygate feature that can be activated on any guard device. It requires the guard to take a picture of staff as they enter and exit the community. The technology compares each picture with the original profile picture of the staff member and flags it off in case of any exception.

Why get SmartEye Attendance?

Gated communities typically rely on the register book to record attendance of their staff. This often leads to fake and duplicate entries whose credibility the society’s management has no way of proving. SmartEye Attendance is an inexpensive solution that can take the security of your society and its residents to a whole new level.With facial recognition technology, Mygate eliminates any chance of false entry, thereby ensuring accurate salary payments for all staff members.

Benefits of SmartEye Attendance

• Ensure complete accuracy in daily staff attendance by verifying their check-in and check-out time
• Receive alerts for any false entries
• Pay daily staff for the days they have reported to work

How it works

1. Every time a staff member checks in, the guard device app will prompt the security guard to take a picture of the staff
2. This attendance image is matched with the staff’s profile picture and any wrong entry is flagged off to the society admin
3. Admins can view all attendance records by logging into their society dashboard

Large communities can have over a thousand delivery executives and cab drivers go past the main gate everyday. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could ensure they don’t overstay their welcome? 

What is Overstay Alert?

This feature enables the Mygate admin to set the maximum duration these delivery executives, cab drivers and service providers may spend inside your community before an alarm goes off on the guard’s device.

Why We Built This Feature

On gated communities’ whatsApp groups, there are often complaints of delivery executives loitering in the area or technicians advertising their services to other homes after completing one job in the community. This is all preventable with overstay alert.

How To Set It Up

To set up Overstay Alert for your community, any of the administrators may contact their customer representative and ask for it to be set up.

You have the option of setting different durations for delivery executives, cabs, and service providers. Your society can also decide how long a visitor can stay per flat. For example, if a technician is going to 10 flats within the society and you have set a time-limit of 3 minutes per flat, then the technician has 30 minutes to exit the society before the alarm goes off. As soon as the time-limit is exceeded, a loud alarm is set off on every guard device with details of the technician. This empowers the security guard to take action as per society guidelines.

This summer Bangalore is grappling with an acute water crisis due to depleting groundwater levels and a drought in the Cauvery basin following a failed monsoon in 2023.

Gated communities have the highest population density and are the most vulnerable in the face of the current water crisis in Bangalore. Those being supplied water by BWSSB report it turning inconsistent or insufficient while those in the city’s peripheral areas such as Whitefield, Bellandur, Varthur, Yelahanka and RR Nagar, that are entirely dependent on borewells and tankers, grapple with exorbitantly priced tankered water delivered from great distances.

Mygate has compiled an Integrated Water Management Plan for gated communities to best manage their water demand, conserve water, and ensure fair supply for all. The recommendations outlined here are based on the experiences of gated communities and tips from water conservation experts.

Tips for RWAs

1. Install internal water meters

It is possible to track and ration household water usage by installing smart water metres in individual flats. When water is metered and a clear tariff is established, the entire community can become more aware of its water consumption, conserve water and lower its water costs. Water meters are known to reduce water consumption by 35 – 40 percent. The cost of installing water meters in your society varies based on the vendor and includes the meter costs based on their lifespan and capabilities, civil work involved, ease of maintenance, and the billing system.

In short, a meter costs between Rs. 5000 and Rs. 7000. If your apartment community has 50 flats, the estimated cost is Rs. 2 lakh. This seems like a huge upfront capital cost but over 5-6 years, you will not just make up the money spent on tankers but also save water by encouraging individual households to be more responsible in their use of water.

Smart metres allow for billing based on actual usage and could generate additional revenue to cover the society’s water-related expenses.

2. Treat and reuse wastewater

A 2014 BWSSB regulation mandated that all apartment complexes with 20 or more dwelling units must own and maintain a sewage treatment plant (STP) on their premises to treat the wastewater from toilets, baths, showers, kitchens, and sinks draining into the city’s sewers. Treated STP water that is free of foul odour and colour at Vakil Whispering Woods R1 in Chandapura is supplied to household flush tanks and for use in landscaping, says resident Satish Rangamuthu.

Salarpuria Sattva Greenage goes a step further and uses treated water for cleaning of common areas without compromising on residents’ health and comfort. Says Mr. Hitesh, RWA board member of Greenage, “Our community has even come together to make conscious use of RO reject water for the cleaning of common lobbies and for washing cars.” There are also a few instances of residential communities that send their excess treated wastewater to neighbouring parks for groundwater recharge.

3. Harvest rainwater

The BWSSB Act (2009) made rainwater harvesting systems mandatory for all buildings constructed since 2009 measuring 1200 feet and more and buildings built before 2009 measuring 2400 feet and more. By ensuring that your apartment’s RWH systems are functioning well, and effectively and consistently harvesting as much of the rain falling on your premises as possible, including that received during the summer months, your apartment can attain water self-sufficiency. Rainwater harvesting in apartment complexes could include:

A. Digging recharge pits: Unlike borewells which only draw water from underground, recharge wells revive groundwater sources by allowing surface water to percolate into and recharge the groundwater table. These are structures (typically of 3-6 foot diameter and 15-20 foot depth) that can be used to carry rainwater from catchments (rooftop, garden, driveway) into the ground. Recharge pits in an apartment’s premises serve a dual purpose:

• When it rains, runoff water from paved areas, gardens, rooftops, driveways or stormwater drains enters the recharge well, percolates into the shallow aquifer and prevents flooding
• When located close to a borewell and connected to cleaned, filtered run-off from rooftops and terraces, it can recharge the borewell and improve its yield

On average, a recharge well costs between Rs 35,000 – 40,000 to construct, occupies little real estate, and can be constructed in a day. They can be retrofitted or integrated into any real estate development. Recharge wells are a highly impactful, cost-effective and low maintenance measure that every apartment complex can take up to harvest the rain falling on its property, recharge groundwater, and prevent flooding during heavy rains.

 

B. Direct storage and reuse: With this technique, rainwater collected from the building’s roof and other open areas is directed to a tank with the help of pipes or gutters where it is filtered and stored. In apartments such as Whitefield-based SV Legacy, this is implemented using a dual sump system – one that stores borewell water and another that stores rainwater. Separate overhead tanks are used to store pumped water from these two sumps. Says Sumit Chowdhury, former RWA member of SV Legacy, “In a good rainfall year, this system cuts down our dependence on water tankers by 40 percent of what it is during summer months.”

 

C. Reviving open wells: If your apartment is fortunate to have an open well on its premises, it could serve as an excellent source of water as well as a point of shallow aquifer recharge when cleaned and connected to rooftops or terraces to channel runoff.

 

4. Ration water supply

Some communities are tiding over the water crisis with the help of timed water supply on certain days of the week while others are reducing household water supply and even levying monetary penalties on residents who misuse drinking water. Says a resident of a Bommanahalli-based apartment complex, “Our society has started a process of phased water rationing for kitchens in a block wise manner.”

5. Manage common amenities

There are examples of societies temporarily shutting down their swimming pools as a way to prevent wastage of potable water in non-essential uses. Even stricter measures have been adopted in other complexes where access to common toilets has been restricted, and facilities such as the gym and in-house cafes have been closed. Several societies have prohibited the use of hose pipes for washing of cars, balconies and yards and others have shut off access to common taps in the basement and parking areas.

6. Strictly monitor overhead tank levels

The BWSSB in 2020 made installation of automatic water level control systems mandatory for all apartment complexes in the state as a way to prevent the overflow of water automatically from the overhead tanks. Some societies are going the extra mile to ensure judicious use of water. Mr. Rangamuthu, “Our overhead tanks have five levels, but since the onset of summer, security staff have been asked to operate them at four level capacity to avoid spillage and wastage in case of motor failure during power outages. Once the tanks are filled to 80 percent capacity, the motors are switched off.”

7. Build water literacy among residents

It is important now to educate residents, staff and other stakeholders of your society about where their water comes from, the actions they can take to use it judiciously and help conserve it, and the impact that individuals can have in contributing to a sustainable city.

Tips for households

1. Install water-saving fixtures

Simple devices like tap aerators and flow restrictors are a quick, easy and cost-effective way to tide over the current water crisis without making any major structural changes, incurring high capital costs or compromising on water pressure. Aerators can be attached to the tips of most kitchen and wash basin taps and are estimated to reduce the flow of water from 12–18 litres per minute (LPM) to 3-6 LPM, enabling water saving of over 50 percent of water without affecting functionality. The solution is also cost-effective as good quality aerators are now available at Rs. 50 to 70 a piece, with bulk purchases costing even less.

2. Reuse RO reject water

The World Economic Forum estimates that an average RO purifier produces approximately 3 litres of waste water for every 1 litre of purified water. According to this estimate, only 25 percent of the total water is purified whereas 75 percent of it is discharged as waste, ending up in the sewage drains. This reject water can safely be put to tertiary uses such as floor mopping, flushing, washing of toilets, cars and clothes, and for watering plants.

3. Switch from showers to bucket baths

Upgrade your bathing routine by switching to low lather soaps or shower gels. This helps cut down the amount of water needed for rinsing.

4. Use appliances efficiently

It is inefficient to run your dishwasher and washing machine with only half a load of dishes or clothes. Even if you run the machine with small load settings, they end up using most of the water and energy of a full load. Since a full load uses far less energy and water than two half loads, a typical household can save up to 12,000 litres of water a year by running full laundry loads instead of half loads.

5. Reuse wastewater

Water left over from floor mopping can be reused for gardening, more so if you switch from chemical cleaning agents to eco-friendly ones. Collect the water from washing vegetables, fruit and grains and reuse it for gardening or flushing.

6. Turn off taps when not in use

Leaving the water running while brushing your teeth wastes an average of 15 litres each time. In a four-person household, where each person brushes twice each day, that’s 120 litres of water wasted. The same is true when you wash dishes. Just by turning off the tap while brushing teeth and washing dishes can make a huge impact.

7. Do a water audit

With the help of a plumber, regularly identify any leaky taps and pipes that contribute to water wastage and higher utility bills. To check for a toilet leak, put dye or food colour into the tank. If colour appears in the bowl without flushing, there’s a leak that should be repaired.

8. Smarten your flush

On average, a person flushes the toilet 6-10 times a day. A dual flush system allows you to use either half or all of the tank’s capacity. Further, older flushes use as much as 12 litres of water per flush while newer models use as little as 4 litres per flush. You can also turn your existing flush into an eco-friendly, low-wastage one by putting a plastic bottle filled with water (or any weight) into your flush tank.

9. Start composting

Turn your kitchen waste into compost which can be used as nutrient-rich food for your terrace garden. Adding compost to your pots reduces the need for frequent watering.

Satyanarayana Enclave is an 18-year-old society in Hyderabad with 240 units. Until October 2018, the society relied entirely on manual  processes for maintenance collection. Security guards went door to door with bills and the committee needed to put a lot of effort into collecting maintenance. Even after all this, on-time payments were under 50%. Moreover, this effort prevented the committee from spending time on more rewarding tasks, such as ways to lower their high maintenance charges.

How the society turned its situation around

In October 2018, the society shifted to digital processes, which made their work easier and freed them up to try out new things. Here’s what they did:

Hybrid billing

Prior to 2018, each type of unit (1/2/3 BHK, duplex homes and penthouses) paid maintenance according to the unit size of the apartment, and sometimes, for amenities they were not using at all. Once a hybrid model was adopted, flats are charged maintenance for some items based on the flat area and, for others, on a fixed basis. Security and housekeeping expenses, for  example, are now shared equally.

Slot booking

To lower bills, the society dropped clubhouse charges from the maintenance structure and instead began charging for amenities based on usage, says Mr. Lokesh Yellapu, General Secretary, Satyanarayana Enclave.

Itemised billing

Formerly, money was collected under a few heads and residents wouldn’t know how it was being used. In the interest of better communication and transparency, the society now provides detailed, itemised monthly bills to communicate exactly why money is being collected.

Planning for contingencies

A 10% contingency fee is charged on the maintenance amount so that any emergency repairs can be completed quickly. Any extra expenditure is charged in 2-3 instalments.

Partnering with residents

Over the past two years, a few sub-committees of residents were set up to help the RWA in its work. These are constituted of experts in different fields and include:

• Vendor management panel: Residents who are experienced at research and comparative analysis of different vendors and the types of services they provide

• Negotiation panel: A team with superior negotiation skills to get the best deals from vendors

• Tech panel: Technology enthusiasts and professionals who are involved in digital adoption and transformation

Impact of Satyanarayana Enclave’s efforts

All of these initiatives together, over the past 2 years, have kept the 18-year-old society looking as good as new, at a cost that is not burdensome to residents.
