Smart Car Parking with the assistance of Line Following Robot

This paper proposes a smart indoor car parking system that can be time and cost effective at the same time. The term “assistance” stands to signify that the parking will be conducted by line following robots carrying the car from the entrance of the parking area. In this paper we have discussed a real-life implementation of a conventional line following robot, using it for the indoor car parking system enhancement through some additional features; other than only following a line. Our proposed system will have its implementation cost really low due to the ease of availability of the required technology. The technologies available in the market at present in order to help with indoor car parking; mostly require some extra structural designs which can only be installed during the construction of new buildings. However, existing traditional parking systems are huge in numbers and cannot be reconstructed in a convenient manner to match those systems; even sometimes the renovation is impossible in some cases. Therefore, our newly featured line following robot can be a proposed solution to those existing problems in the available indoor car parking systems giving an efficient alternative for the users.
