ABSTRACT:-
In this modern world usage of automobiles became a part of our living. Rapid increase in the usage of
automobiles needs improvement of technology in car parking slots. The main objective of this project is to
provide safe and easy parking for a car in the parking lot. The proposed method helps the driver of the car to
find the available parking lot with the help of the LCD display at the entrance of the parking lot as well as the
indicators available on the road inside the parking lot to detect the empty slot available for parking. Here
mainly ultrasonic sensors are used to find the presence of the car in the parking zone and based on the feedback
of the sensors given to the controller, it updates the status of the parking slot in the LCD board as well as selects
the path to the vacant parking lot and guide the driver of the car by glowing the concerned LED’s in that path.
At Present this model has been developed only for five cars and in future this can be extended to more number
of cars as well as multiple parking zones can be combined and the data can be uploaded onto the web so that at
the time of starting from home itself the driver of the car can gather the information of the parking lot and the
empty slot available for parking and can decide his route accordingly. In this project a 2.4” TFT LCD monitor,
Arduino mega 2560, Ultrasonic sensors and LED’s are used.
In this modern world usage of automobiles became a part of our living. Rapid increase in the usage of
automobiles needs improvement of technology in car parking slots. We undertook this project to provide safe
car parking. Main tools used in this project are mega Arduino, LCD display and ultra sonics. The program of
this project is dumped in to Arduino mega board. The main heart of this project is path detecting using LED’S
which shows the way for the customer to park his car safely. When car arrives the lot the presense of car in the
block is sensed by ultra sonic and sends a signal to Arduino. Based on the received signal by the Arduino the
LCD displays the status of that particular block. This process repeats till all the blocks are filled. If any car
arrives even after all the blocks are filled by seeing LCD display the user comes to know all the blocks are
filled. So, without entering inside he goes to another parking area without wasting time.
