Abstract

Parking vehicles are one of the most frustrating tasks that people face these days. Locating an available parking space is a huge headache especially in urban areas. This paper aims to design one such parking system which, in many ways reduces the hassles of parking. The paper presents a system where a Machine Learning model, Convolution Neural Network(CNN) is used to classify parking slots in a parking space into vacant and filled slots. In order to optimize the task of classification, the method of Transfer Learning is implemented in the paper. The problem of parking stands not only limited to causing inconvenience to the drivers, but also escalates to much larger and extensive problems, affecting a lot more people the environment. Hence it is very important to have a system is used parking system in place. The model proposed in the paper sends across parking information to a driver well in advance, there by greatly reducing the waiting time for the vehicle.

Highlights

  • Parking space is always a limited resource and cannot be expanded[1].Secondly, lack of discipline among drivers who park their car haphazardly, taking up more space than their vehicle needs, would further reduce the available parking space Needs, would further reduce the available parking space[2], and because of these reasons, looking for a vacant parking lot is a tiresome task for drivers

  • As vehicles queue up waiting and looking for a vacant spot, the waiting vehicles cause traffic congestions, and traffic jams would further lead to wastage of fuel, time and effort [3]

  • The existing parking systems in most parking spaces usually involve a security person guiding the vehicles into vacant spots

Summary

Introduction

Every year, the number of vehicles keeps increasing, but parking space for those vehicles remains constant. Parking space is always a limited resource and cannot be expanded[1].Secondly, lack of discipline among drivers who park their car haphazardly, taking up more space than their vehicle needs, would further reduce the available parking space Needs, would further reduce the available parking space[2], and because of these reasons, looking for a vacant parking lot is a tiresome task for drivers. The consequences of this problem are even more damaging. The existing parking systems in most parking spaces usually involve a security person guiding the vehicles into vacant spots This system is quite time- consuming and complicated. It does not help in reducing the waiting time for vehicles
