Introduction
The Smart Parking System is an innovative basic electronics
project designed to efficiently manage parking spaces. Using
sensors, it detects vacant slots and displays their availability
on an LCD screen via I2C communication. This system
optimizes parking resource utilization, reducing congestion
and enhancing user convenience. With its simple yet effective
design, it showcases the application of electronics in
addressing everyday challenges like parking management.
Objectives
1. Efficient Space Utilization: Develop a system capable of accurately detecting
vacant parking slots using sensors to optimize space occupancy and reduce
congestion.
2. Real-time Monitoring: Implement a mechanism to continuously monitor parking
availability and update the information displayed on the LCD screen in real-time via
I2C communication.
3. User-Friendly Interface: Design an intuitive interface on the LCD screen to clearly
present parking availability information, making it easy for users to identify vacant
slots.
4. Reliable Operation: Ensure the reliability and robustness of the system by
minimizing false detections to maintain accurate and consistent performance.
Circuit Diagram
Components and their Uses
1. Ultrasonic Sensors(HC-SR04): Used for detecting the presence of vehicles in
parking slots.
2. Microcontroller (Arduino): Controls the overall operation of the system,
processes sensor data, and manages communication with the LCD screen.
3.LCD Display (with I2C module): Displays real-time information about the
availability of parking slots.
4.I2C Communication Protocol: Facilitates communication between the
microcontroller and the LCD display, enabling seamless data transfer.
5.Power Supply: Provides the necessary electrical power to operate the system.
6.Resistors: Used for circuit protection, signal conditioning, and stability.
7.Connecting Wires: Used for interconnecting the various components and
establishing electrical connections.
Working
1.Vehicle Detection: The ultrasonic sensor is placed at the entrance of each parking
space. When a vehicle enters, the sensor detects its presence by measuring the
distance to the vehicle.
2.Display Information: The Arduino processes the sensor data and updates the LCD
display to indicate whether the parking space is vacant or occupied.
3.Barrier Control: If the parking space is vacant, the Arduino sends a signal to the
servo motor to open the barrier, allowing the vehicle to enter. If the space is
occupied, the barrier remains closed.
4. User Interface: The LCD display provides real-time information to drivers,
showing available parking spaces and guiding them to empty spots.
Features and Benefits
Features:
• Real time parking slot display: Displays the number of available parking slots on
an LCD screen in real-time, aiding drivers in decision-making.
• Arduino Integration: Enables seamless communication between ultrasonic
sensors, LCD display, and the Arduino board for efficient operation
Benefits:
• Improved Parking Efficiency: Enables drivers to quickly identify available parking
spaces, reducing time spent searching for parking and minimizing traffic.
• Enhanced User Experience: Enhances convenience for drivers by providing real-
time updates on parking availability, improving overall satisfaction with the
parking experience
Future Scope
1. Solar-Powered Solution: Make the system run on sunlight, saving energy
and being eco-friendly, contributing to a greener environment.
2. Wireless Charging: Enable cars to charge wirelessly while parked, making
it convenient for electric vehicle users and promoting sustainability.
3. Smartphone Integration: Allow users to control parking and payments
through their smart phones, making the process easier and more
accessible.
4. Safety Sensors: Install sensors to detect obstacles and pedestrians,
ensuring safety and preventing accidents in parking areas.
5. Voice Command Functionality: Implement voice commands for parking
operations, making it hands-free and user-friendly, especially for drivers
with limited mobility.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the Smart Parking System offers an effective
solution for optimizing parking space utilization through
basic electronics. By accurately detecting and displaying
vacant parking slots on an LCD screen using I2C
communication, the system enhances user convenience
and reduces congestion. Its reliable operation and
intuitive interface underscore its practical application in
addressing modern-day parking management challenges.
