Abstract

The urbanisation in developing countries has resulted an increase in intensity of population in urban and downtown area. This situation has forced rapid development of multi-story buildings to accommodate the need of living spaces and commercial premises such as hotels, apartments, shopping centers, offices, hospitals, and airports. Subsequently, the number of vehicles is also increasing tremendously which leads to inefficient parking slot searching time and traffic congestions at the buildings’ parking space. Therefore, a systematic parking management for multi-storey buildings is needed to overcome the issues, which in turn will provide a betterment in modern lifestyle. Most of existing parking management systems implement an automatic gate and a parking ticket. However, there are limited information about the parking slot availability provided, commonly using of LED display at the parking entrance. The integration between conventional parking systems with Internet of Things (IoT) technology is a good solution to provide more efficient and flexible parking management systems. This project aims to develop a smart parking system that provides an efficient parking space utilization using IoT technology. The developed system consists of two main components which are an on-site device and mobile application. The on-site device updates the information about parking availability and its location in a cloud server. The data can be accessed by the user through a mobile application. This system informs the user availability of parking slots in that building with specified level. The accuracy for the IoT based Smart Parking System is analysed through a series of real time testing. By comparing the actual condition of the on-site device and the result shown in the Blynk mobile application, the percentage of accuracy of IoT based Smart Parking System is calculated. All of the actual results of the on-site device are synchronized with the result in Blynk mobile application. This system allows the smart parking system and the user to interact. Which will allow the user to check the vacant parking slots at their hands.
