EFFICIENT PARKING SPACE MANAGEMENT USING IOT AND WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

Abstract

With the rapidly increasing urban population and their busy working schedule, people prefer private cars over public transport depending upon their requirements. This leads to the problem of finding parking spots for their vehicles, especially cars, which is a big issue everyone faces nowadays. Because of heavy working schedules, drivers hardly have time to spend in the parking lane. So, the demand is to develop a digital system that automatically detects and indicates vacant parking spots in the parking area. As the world is growing and tending to be more digital every day, this digital system will help to save time for a person in daily aspects which is a crucial necessity of today’s generation. This paper shows how the information is collected from multiple parking areas nearby each other to a single acknowledged unit for an indication of free parking slots in a particular area. The nRF24L01 is a transceiver module which provides reasonable and operative full- duplex RF choices. These transmitting and receiving communication modules used in similar illustrations come on a veritably controllable as well as affordable. The aim of this paper is to easily indicate the exact location/parking lot in the particular parking area. The list of empty slots will be displayed at the entrance of the parking lot. The system consists of a controlling unit, IR sensors, an LCD screen, antennas, etc. The use of this system for car parking will reduce manpower.
