3. ABSTRACT
With the vast growing influx of population in the developed, industrially and technologically sound urban
cities, an urgent need to make the cities smart is surmounted. The cities are made smart utilizing data
sharing, artificial intelligence, machine learning, analytics, and thousands of RFID tags and sensors. One of the
significant concerns of today's smart cities is the growing need to manage the vehicles on-road as well as to
create sufficient and well-managed parking lots to prevent urban areas from traffic congestion. This leads to a
call for highly automated parking management system self-sufficient in guiding the driver to an available
parking space in the nearby area. This project deals with the prototype of the smart parking system (S.P
system). The proposed smart parking system collects the parking availability status and assists drivers in
finding parking space that effectively reduces the traffic problems and mismanagement across the cities to a
great extent.

4. OBJECTIVE
• Designing a smart parking system
with RFID technology.
• Proper, easy, and fast check-ins
and check-outs in any parking area.
• Increasing system functionality
and efficiency.
• To reduce harmful carbon
emissions and save fuel.
• Time saving.

5. EXISTING SYSTEM
 Difficult to find slots
 Time consuming
 No proper system for parking
charges
 No updates regarding
available and occupied slots

6. PROPOSED SYSTEM
 Slot is assigned to the driver before
entering the parking
 Time saving
 Charges based on parking time
 The availability of slots is updated on the
LCD screen

COMPONENTS USED

8. ARDUINO
Arduino is an open-source platform used for
building electronics projects. Arduino consists of
both a physical programmable circuit board (often
referred to as a microcontroller) and a piece of
software, or IDE (Integrated Development
Environment) that runs on your computer, used to
write and upload computer code to the physical
board.

9. LCD DISPLAY
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screen is an electronic
display module and find a wide range of
applications. A 16x2 LCD display is very basic
module and is very commonly used in various
devices and circuits. These modules are preferred
over seven segments and other multi segment
LEDs. The reasons being: LCDs are economical;
easily programmable; have no limitation of
displaying special & even custom characters
(unlike in seven segments), animations and so on.

10. SERVO MOTOR
A servomotor is a linear actuator or rotary actuator
that allows for precise control of linear or angular
position, acceleration, and velocity. It consists of a
motor coupled to a sensor for position feedback. It
also requires a relatively sophisticated controller,
often a dedicated module designed specifically for
use with servomotors.

11. LED
LEDs are semiconductor devices. Like transistors,
and other diodes, LEDs are made out of silicon.
What makes an LED give off light are the small
amounts of chemical impurities that are added to
the silicon, such as gallium, arsenide, indium, and
nitride. When current passes through the LED, it
emits photons as a by-product. Normal light bulbs
produce light by heating a metal filament until its
white hot. Because LEDs produce photons directly
and not via heat, they are far more efficient than
incandescent bulbs.

12. RFID SENSOR
RFID means “radio-frequency identification” and
refers to a technology whereby digital data
encoded in RFID tags or smart labels are captured
by a reader via radio waves. RFID is similar to
barcoding in that data from a tag or label are
captured by a device that stores the data in a
database. RFID, however, has several advantages
over systems that use barcode asset tracking
software. The most notable is that RFID tag data
can be read outside the line-of-sight, whereas
barcodes must be aligned with an optical scanner.

13. IR SENSOR
An infrared sensor is an electronic device, that
emits in order to sense some aspects of the
surroundings. An IR sensor can measure the heat of
an object as well as detects the motion.

14. ULTRASONIC SENSOR
An ultrasonic sensor is an instrument that
measures the distance to an object using
ultrasonic sound waves. An ultrasonic sensor uses
a transducer to send and receive ultrasonic pulses
that relay back information about an object’s
proximity. High-frequency sound waves reflect from
boundaries to produce distinct echo patterns.

16. WORKING
Data read from the RFID tags is collected using the RFID sensors at entry gate. This data
consisting of the various details of the car is loaded for a parking slot and that slot number is
allotted to the vehicle. After this, at the time of parking of this car the sensors (Ultrasonic and
IR) senses the presence of any vehicle at that allotted slot. In case of improper parking or no-
collection of information, manual support would be provided. If not, then that is a successful
parking. At the time of exit, an automatic bill is generated, and the exit gate opens with the
parking charges being deducted from your linked account.

17. ADVANTAGES
Shorter waiting times at
parking places.
It saves fuel, money,
space, and time.
Reduces traffic.
Reduces pollution and
helps in reducing carbon
emission.

18. FUTURE SCOPE
• In the future it can be linked with
an app or a website.
• The data regarding the availability
of slots and occupancy can be
updated on the app or website.
• In the future we can make charging
points available in the parking
system itself for electric vehicles.

19. CONCLUSION
This project is proposed to design and implementation of smart parking based on ultrasonic
sensors, infrared sensor, RFID Reader, and servo motor all these equipment are connected
with Arduino to calculate the number of available spaces and locate the space in the parking
to help the driver and help him get rid of chaos caused by not knowing the empty spaces in the
vehicle parking, it facilitates searching for a more reliable vehicle parking system.
