[Link] Overview
Title: Automatic Car Parking System
Project Description:
The automatic car parking system is designed to efficiently
manage parking spaces using an Arduino Uno microcontroller.
Infrared (IR) sensors are strategically placed at the entry, exit, and
each parking slot to detect vehicle movement and occupancy.
When a vehicle approaches the entry gate, the IR sensor sends a
signal to the Arduino, which processes it and commands the servo
motor to open the gate. Once the vehicle enters, the gate
automatically closes. Similarly, at the exit gate, an IR sensor
detects vehicles leaving and operates the servo motor to manage
the gate accordingly.
Inside the parking lot, IR sensors monitor each slot to determine
whether it is occupied or vacant. The Arduino gathers this data
and updates the LCD display, which provides real-time information
about the availability of parking slots.
This system streamlines the parking process by automating gate
control and reducing manual intervention. Additionally, it
improves user experience by allowing drivers to easily locate
vacant slots through the LCD display, ensuring efficient space
utilization and smooth traffic flow within the parking area.
Motivation: People facing problem to find empty slots in parking and
it waste time.
Idea: Solving parking locating problem by display and
Arduino Uno circuit. It give the slots location on entry gate in display by
showing slots number.

Programming language and platform:-
Variant of C++
Arduino IDE
Application :
This project is essentially targeted towards public places like
malls,offices and places where crowds gather in a lrage
number,which causes a ruckus in parking,with an automated parking
system,anyone entering will directly get which slot is
available,hence,reducing the time and effort to find an available
slot,which also causes people to cause jams in the parking slots,this
also eliminates the need of additional human intervention because
everything is managed automatically by sensors and controllers,for
efficient and easier handling.
[Link] Analysis:
Comparison with Large-Scale/Existing Systems:
Our prototype is a simplified version of large-scale automated
parking systems used in commercial facilities.
Technology and Sensors
Existing Systems: Use advanced sensors like ultrasonic or AI-
powered cameras.
Our System: Utilizes cost-effective IR sensors, offering basic but
reliable functionality.
System Complexity
Existing Systems: Feature cloud integration, mobile apps, and
multi-level parking management.
Our System: Focuses on essential functions like gate control,
vehicle detection, and slot availability display.
Cost and Scalability
Existing Systems: High cost and designed for large-scale
operations.
Our System: Affordable and suitable for smaller parking areas, with
potential for upgrades.
Conclusion:
While not as advanced, our prototype offers a low-cost, practical
solution for small-scale applications, demonstrating key automation
principles.
Noverty:
Our project stands out for its cost-effective design, using IR sensors
and an Arduino Uno to automate parking at a fraction of the cost of
advanced systems.
The integration of real-time parking slot data on an LCD display
ensures convenience without needing complex networking or apps,
making it ideal for smaller setups. Its modular design also allows easy
scalability and upgrades for future needs.
[Link] scope:
