IoT based sensor enabled smart car parking for advanced driver assistance system

Smart parking systems typically obtain information about available parking spaces in a particular geographic area and process it in real-time to facilitate vehicle parking at available positions. One of the key issues that smart cities relate to is car parking facilities and traffic management systems. Internet of Things (IoT) enables the connectivity between surrounding environmental things to internet and makes easy to access those things from any remote location. The effective use of an IoT technology can ease human life in some aspects. The proposed work is one of the applications of combination of IoT and cloud computing technology. The objective of this work is to design, analyze and implement “IoT based sensor enabled car parking system”, this enables the user to pre reserve parking slot from remote place with the help of mobile application. Authentication of the valid booking is incorporated to benefit valid user. This system is implemented using low-cost IR sensors, Raspberry-Pi model 3b for real-time data collection, E-Parking mobile application. E-Parking mobile application is developed using android studio having baseband version of android 4.3.
