Smart Car Parking System (SPS) with the applications of Intelligent Transportation System

Abstract

Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) is a modern approach in transportation engineering and management strategies of computer science, electronics and communication as it aims to provide advanced services in various methods of transport and traffic management systems. This helps the users to make safe, smart and efficient transport networks. Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) has a very wide application starting from traffic management to driver operation and vehicle control systems. Due to increase in vehicle production and world population leads to demand for more parking spaces and parking facilities. This problem is arising due to gap between demand and supply of parking spaces. The basic focus of this study is how to identify the exact location for parking the vehicle with the help of Arduino IDE software program. It will address the problems effectively associated with identification of parking slots and reaching parking places in urban areas. It informs and guide drivers to find limited number of parking spaces including their price in parking zones with in a shorter duration. Infrared sensors are also used to detect car parking slot occupancy. Smart Parking System (SPS) deals with identification of empty parking space, improper parking of vehicles and show the direction towards vacant parking slots. It also deals with digital payment facility. The ultimate focus of this is to identify the availability or non-availability of parking space.
