Abstract


With the rapid growth in vehicle production and world population, vehicle availability and usage on the road in recent years, finding a space for parking the car is becoming more and more difficult which resulting in a number of conflicts such as traffic problems. In this paper a new parking system called Smart Parking System (SPS) is proposed to assist drivers to find vacant spaces in a car park in a shorter time. This system proposes a safe and efficient parking system which will work on sensor communication and secured wireless network. The new system uses infrared sensors to detect either car park occupancy or improper parking actions. The system includes two modules, parking lot vacancy monitoring module, and master module. Parking lot vacancy monitoring module consists of digital infrared sensor, liquid crystal display (LCD) and Zigbee module which are interfaced with microcontroller. Master modules include laptop GUI display and Zigbee modules. The user can get the status of parking lot vacancy through the LCD of monitoring parking vacancy module. The Zigbee transceiver on monitoring parking vacancy module which is interfaced with microcontroller is used to transmit the infrared sensor data. When the digital infrared sensor detects the presence of vehicle in the parking areas and thus provides the status of the parking lot to be displayed in master module with Graphical User interface (GUI). Using this system, we can easily find vacant space for parking and parking waiting time is reduced efficiently.
