Final Project Fall 2016
Automated Parking System
Purpose
In this project you are to use and apply all techniques and skills acquired during
this semester.
Project Description
You are to design and implement a simulation of an automated parking system.
Your parking has the following specifications:
The parking is made-up of four zones (green, red, yellow and Blue).
Each zone cannot handle more than 10 cars.
The exit door is separated from the entrance.
Project Description
Initially the parking is empty.
You are required to keep count of the number of cars in each zone.
You are required to implement two panels one for the entrance and one for
the exit
o Each panel contains 4 push buttons representing the 4 zones.
o The driver chooses the zone he wants to park in.
o If the Zone is full you should return a Full message using 7-segment
display and order the gate not to open.
o Each time the button is pushed on the entrance panel you are required
to increment your counter.
o Each time the button is pushed on the exit panel you are required to
decrement your counter.
You are required to represent each zone by 3 LED lights(green, orange, Red)
o When the zone is empty the green LED should light up.
o When the zone is half filled the orange LED should light up.
o When the zone is full the red LED should light up.
Remark: Keep in mind that each zone should be represented by 3 LEDs, so
in total you should have 12 Led lights.
Bonus
You will get a bonus if you designed 7-segment for each zone that displays
the number of cars that are inside.
Project Constraints
Design Constraints
o Use the minimum number of ICs.
Economic Constraints
o The project should be cost effective.
o The Design power consumption should be as low as possible.
Team Work
For this project, you can work together in groups of 4 (your group with another, no
matter which section). Any resemblance to some other teams’ work will result in a
zero on both projects.
Deliverables
Your system should be soldered on circuit boards (do not use Printed
Circuit Boards).
Every team will present one report. The report should be well organized and
should include all design steps, decisions, constraints, assumptions and
analysis, as well as the theoretically simulated design on Altera Quartus II.
Demonstration
The work of each group will be presented in the presence of all members who
should be prepared for any question regarding the design and implementation.
Due Date
Tuesday December 8 at 11:00am.
Note: This project reflects 20% of the lab’s total grade (15% common to the whole
team and 5% individual effort).
