Smart Parking System using Image Detection Algorithms & Optical Character Recognition (OCR)

Abstract

Abstract: The Smart Parking System is an innovative and effective solution designed to make parking more efficient in urban areas, using advanced technology to help both vehicle owners and parking operators automate and optimize the parking process. When a vehicle enters the parking lot, it is successfully identified using an advanced sensor and camera system, with a highresolution camera that records the license plate number and optical character recognition (OCR) technology. Get accurate license plate numbers. The data is then stored in the MongoDB database along with the input timestamp and when the vehicle moves, the license plate is re-identified using the same technique and the system stores the input timestamp associated with the detected license plate in the database. he does. Reading from Parking time is calculated from the time difference between entering and leaving the parking lot, and the parking fee is calculated per hour. To facilitate payment, a QR code is generated and displayed at the exit. Vehicle owners can use their mobile device to scan this QR code and connect to the secure payment gateway. After the payment is completed, the exit door will open automatically and the car can leave the parking lot. This smart parking system offers many benefits, including fewer numbers, increased accuracy, reduced waiting time, and efficient payment processing. It reduces congestion in urban areas and improves traffic flow while providing users with convenient and troublefree parking
