Abstract
This paper aims to present an intelligent system for parking space detection based on image processing technique. The proposed system captures and processes the rounded image drawn at parking lot and produces the information of the empty car parking spaces. In this work, a camera is used as a sensor to take photos to show the occupancy of car parks. The reason why a camera is used is because with an image it can detect the presence of many cars at once. Also, the camera can be easily moved to detect different car parking lots. By having this image, the particular car parks vacant can be known and then the processed information was used to guide a driver to an available car park rather than wasting time to find one. The proposed system has been developed in both software and hardware platform. An automatic parking system is used to make the whole process of parking cars more efficient and less complex for both drivers and administrators.
Highlights
IntroductionThis means that on busy days drivers may take a long time driving around a car park in order to find a free parking space
Most car parks today are not run efficiently. This means that on busy days drivers may take a long time driving around a car park in order to find a free parking space
An automatic parking system can be done through sensors at the entrance and exit of the park, a computer system that manages the whole process and various display panels and lights that help the driver in parking his car
Summary
This means that on busy days drivers may take a long time driving around a car park in order to find a free parking space Implementing this system will help to resolve the growing problem of traffic congestion, wasted time, wasting money, and help provide better public service, reduce car emissions and pollution, improve city visitor experience, increase parking utilization, and prevent unnecessary capital investments. There are numerous methods of detecting cars in a car park such as Magnetic sensors, Microwave Radar, Ultrasonic sensors and image processing [1] [2]. Software is needed to process the images taken by the cameras. First one will be taken from Google earth and other one is a real photo for the car park
