Abstract:
Due to the proliferation in the number of vehicles on the road, traffic problems are bound to exist. This is due to the fact that the current transportation infrastructure and car park facility developed are unable to cope up with the influx of vehicles on the road.
To alleviate the aforementioned problems, the digital car park monitoring system has been developed. With the implementation of the digital car park monitoring system, patrons can easily locate and secure a vacant parking space at any car park deemed convenient to them.
Vehicle ingress and egress are also made more convenient with the implementation of hassle-free payment mechanism. With vehicle detection sensors aplenty on the market, the choices made may defer due to the different requirements in addition to the its pros and cons.
Subsequently, the various systems used in developing the systems in addition to the recent research and commercial system on the market are examined as vehicle detection plays a crucial role in the digital car park monitoring system.
The proposed system illustrates the counter for the cars entering the park and give the order to the park gate never to open to any entered car when the number of cars in the car reach the highest number. In addition, the same counter made for the exit gate (where is the same the entrance gate in this project) count in reverse order for the cars exit from the park.
The principle of operation of the park is the piezoelectric sensor depends on the weight of the car (here small push button) when the car presses the foot switch, the counter adds or subtracts one from the counter number.
