The objective of Intelligent Car Parking System is to progressively reduce the demand of car parking and fast retrieval of car.
Prior Projects Employed For Parking are: Using 8051 microcontroller.
Using
Zigbee Technology.
16x2LCD Display
Stepper motor
Start
A
Find the empty parking space by taking feed back from the Infra-Red Sensors placed in parking area and display the name given to the parking space on the LCD Screen Open the gate and allow the vehicle to enter the parking area Is the parking space available in ground floor ?
Yes
No Indicate the presence of vehicle on the lift by sending the feedback from Infra-Red sensor mounted on the lift Is the vehicle detected on the lift? Yes
No
B
Wait for 5 seconds Rotate the stepper motor in anti-clock wise direction so that the lift connected to the belt of stepper motor moves in upward direction i.e., to the desired floor Wait for the feedback from IR sensor mounted on the lift, indicating that the vehicle has moved out from the lift Yes Is the vehicle detected on the lift? No Wait for 5 seconds
Rotate the stepper motor in clockwise direction, so that the lift goes back its original position i.e., ground floor Stop
No
Yes
Yes Is the lift busy? No
Identify the floor, where the key has been pressed Is the key pressed from ground floor? No Yes
B
Rotate the stepper motor in anti-clock wise direction so that the lift connected to the belt of stepper motor moves in upward direction i.e., to the desired floor Wait for the feedback from IR sensor mounted on the lift, indicating the presence of vehicle on the lift Is the vehicle detected on the lift? Yes Wait for 5 seconds
No
Rotate the stepper motor in clockwise direction, so that the lift goes back its original position i.e., ground floor Stop
