Smart Implementation of Car Parking With Raspberry Pi

The concept of smart technologies have achieved immense popularity in modern times. The growth of Internet of things has made it possible for many smart applications which were not thought achievable. Unswerving efforts are continuously made in the IoT field to enhance the reliability and efficiency of urban communication infrastructure to keep pace with the demands of economic development and population growth. The infrastructure is crucial for progress in societies and improvements in the living standards. Many of the urban problems such as, limited vehicle parking facilities, traffic congestions, etc are being tackled by IoT. An IoT-based smart implementation of car parking is presented in this paper with the help of the Raspberry Pi. The proposed Car Parking system consists of an IoT module that is used to monitor and gather information on the availability of parking space. The system is expected to improve the existing parking management system where users can check space availability and also book parking space for themselves.
