OBJECTIVE
To develop an intelligent, user friendly automated car parking system which
reduces the manpower and traffic congestion,
The proposed smart car parking system will overcome all the challenges and
difficulties that are there in the conventional car-parking System,
It saves us the time and effort that we put into this task ,and also the fuel
wastage can be reduced, as It could help bring order out of the chaos that
exists at present in the car parking issue make it really simple and easy
MOTIVATION AND RELATED WORKS /LITERATURE
Motivation
Difficulty in Finding Vacant Spaces Quickly finding a vacant space in a
multilevel parking lot is difficult if not impossible, especially on weekends or
public holidays
Improper Parking:
If a car is parked in such a way that it occupies two parking slots rather than
one, this is called improper parking .Improper parking can happen when a
driver is not careful about another driver’s rights. This is tackled by the
development of automated smart car parking system.
Related Works/Literature
Finding spaces during weekends or public holidays can take more than 10
minutes for about 66% of visitors. Stadiums or shopping malls are crowded at
peak periods, and difficulty in finding vacant slots at these places is a major
problem for customers. Smart Parking system designed proposed a
mechanical model with an image processing facility.
Various methods are prevalent for development of autonomous or intelligent
parking systems. Study of these systems shows that these require a little or
more human intervention for the functioning. One of the intelligent systems
for car parking has been proposed by making use of Image processing. The
car would be parked with the use of lift at multiple levels. Also, image
processing is used to capture the number plate and store in database for
comparison to avoid illegal car [Link], we aim to propose a car parking
system that represents a fully automated model with minimum human
intervention and overcome the limitations of existing systems.
WORK DONE SO FAR
In this presented prototype, a horizontal place/plane in ,with two parking
slots.
This model was developed with servo motor controlled by the arduino and
the gate IR sensor, to detect the incoming Car, And Slot IR Sensor to detect the
available slot shown by LEDs and then move it to the allocated parking
slot(till now manually),
Once the user finds any available slots in the LED display, the user proceeds
to the allocated slots ,if available,otherwise the gate will not be opened
TENTATIVE WORK/FUTURE PLAN
In future we are really looking for the car parking system which enables the
parking of the vehicles, floor after the floor in a vertical fashion thus reducing
the space used. The System is controlled with software that has been
implemented using a PIC controller and thus reducing the time wasted by a
person to find a parking slot manually and park the vehicle.
Using individual lifts one for parking and one for un-parking , Updating the
user by sending an SMS message if the car is parked for more than a
maximum limit of time.. Designing a UI with the help of MATLAB software
In future works, this system can be improved by adding other applications
such as online booking by using gsm. The driver or user can book their
parking lot at home or on the way to the shopping mall. This
can reduce the time of the user to searching the vacant parking lot.
