IOT-BASED SMART PARKING SYSTEM

Abstract

ABSTRACT An IoT-based smart parking system (100) comprising a plurality of parking sensors configured to detect the presence or absence of a vehicle in a parking space; a communication modules associated with each of said parking sensors for transmitting real-time occupancy data to a central server; a central server configured to receive and process said occupancy data, analyze parking availability, and generate real-time updates; a mobile application or web interface accessible to users, enabling the display of real-time parking availability, reservation capabilities, and navigation assistance to the available parking spaces and a payment module integrated into said application or interface for facilitating automated fee processing upon user check-out. <>

Specification

Description:FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE
[0001] This invention generally relates to a parking management systems and, in particular, to an IoT-based smart parking system designed to improve parking efficiency through real-time data collection and user interaction.
BACKGROUND

[0002] The subject matter discussed in the background section should not be assumed to be prior art merely as a result of its mention in the background section. Similarly, a problem mentioned in the background section or associated with the subject matter of the background section should not be assumed to have been previously recognized in the prior art. The subject matter in the background section merely represents different approaches, which in and of themselves may also correspond to implementations of the claimed technology.
[0003] Conventional parking systems are often manual or rely on basic sensor technology, which limits their effectiveness and scalability. Existing parking solutions may include automated barriers, ticketing systems, or basic , Claims:1. An IoT-based smart parking system (100) comprising:
a plurality of parking sensors configured to detect the presence or absence of a vehicle in a parking space;
a communication modules associated with each of said parking sensors for transmitting real-time occupancy data to a central server;
a central server configured to receive and process said occupancy data, analyze parking availability, and generate real-time updates;
a mobile application or web interface accessible to users, enabling the display of real-time parking availability, reservation capabilities, and navigation assistance to the available parking spaces; and
a payment module integrated into said application or interface for facilitating automated fee processing upon user check-out.

2. The IoT-based smart parking system (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the central server further comprises a machine learning algorithm configured to predict future parking availability based on historical data and usage patterns, thereby providing predic
