IOT BASED SMART CAR-PARKING
SYSTEM
INTRODUCTION:
Smart parking systems are designed to make parking easy and efficient for drivers. IoT-
based smart parking systems use sensors and IoT technology to help drivers find and
reserve parking spots in real-time. This project report aims to present an IoT-based
smart parking system that can be used to monitor the occupancy of parking spaces in a
particular area.
OBJECTIVES:
1. To design and implement an IoT-based smart parking system that can monitor
the occupancy of parking spaces in real-time.
2. To develop a mobile application that can be used by drivers to find and reserve
parking spots.
3. To reduce traffic congestion by enabling drivers to quickly find parking spots.
SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE:
The system architecture of the IoT-based smart parking system consists of the
following components:
Sensors: These are installed in parking spaces and are used to detect the
presence of a vehicle.
Microcontroller: The microcontroller receives data from the sensors and sends it
to the cloud.
Cloud Server: The cloud server stores data received from the microcontroller and
makes it available to the mobile application.
Mobile Application: The mobile application is used by drivers to find and reserve
parking spots.
METHODOLOGY:
The IoT-based smart parking system is implemented using the following steps:
Sensors are installed in parking spaces to detect the presence of a vehicle.
The sensors send data to the microcontroller, which is responsible for
processing the data and sending it to the cloud server.
The cloud server stores the data and makes it available to the mobile application.
The mobile application allows drivers to find and reserve parking spots.
RESULTS:
At the end the IoT-based smart parking system will be successfully implemented and
tested. The system will be able to accurately detect the occupancy of parking spaces
and make this information available to drivers in real-time. The mobile application will
also be able to enable drivers to quickly find and reserve parking spots.
CONCLUSION:
The IoT-based smart parking system provides an efficient way for drivers to find and
reserve parking spots. By reducing the amount of time drivers spend looking for parking,
this system can help reduce traffic congestion and improve overall traffic flow. This
project can be further enhanced by integrating additional features such as automatic
payment and notification systems.
