πŸ…ΏοΈ What the System Does

Our IoT-Enabled Smart Parking System is designed to make parking hassle-free in malls, offices, apartments, and smart cities. The system uses ultrasonic/IR sensors to detect vacant parking slots and guides drivers in real-time via a mobile app or digital display. With IoT integration, users can find, reserve, and pay for parking spaces remotely, reducing traffic congestion and saving time.

πŸ’‘ Why Smart Parking Matters

Urban areas face rising traffic congestion and limited parking spaces. Drivers often waste time searching for a spot, leading to frustration, fuel wastage, and increased pollution. With an IoT-powered smart parking system, cities and businesses can offer:

  • Real-time slot availability

  • Digital payments & reservations

  • Reduced congestion and emissions

  • Improved user convenience

πŸ€– How IoT Makes It Smarter

Unlike traditional parking systems, our solution is powered by IoT connectivity and automation:

  • Sensors detect available parking spaces.

  • Microcontroller processes slot occupancy data.

  • IoT Connectivity (Wi-Fi/GSM/LoRa) transmits data to the cloud.

  • Mobile App/Dashboard shows live parking availability.

  • Smart Alerts notify users about reserved slots, expiry times, or availability.
