ARTIK CLOUD BASED SMART CAR PARKING SYSTEM

Abstract : Concept of Smart cities have gained great popularity. Thanks to the evolution of Internet of things the idea of smart city now seems to be achievable. In this paper, we proposed Smart Parking system consists of an on-site deployment of an IoT module which is combination of Raspberry pi 3 and Arduino Uno and HC-SRO4 Sonars that is used to monitor and signalize the state of availability of each single parking space.

 EXISTING SYSTEM :

 Work in this field is being preferred by most of the automobile companies like TOYOTA,BMW,BOSCH,ERICSSON using different micro controllers and sensors such as RASPBERRY PI, ARDUINO,INTEL GALILEO controllers uses sensors like IR,ULTRA SONIC,RFID,through Wireless Sensor technologies, GPSand UHF. Jung-Ho Moon, Tae Kwon Ha(2013) has worked on car parking monitoring system using wireless sensor networks. Ramneet Kaur and Balwinder Singh (2013) described how the design and implementation of car parking system can be done through FPGA. Soh Chun Khang et.al, (2010) presents a parking system in which driver comes to know about the space availability in the parking lot with the help of SMS service. Tsung-hua Hsu, Jing-Fu Liu, Pen-Ning Yu, WangShuan Lee and Jia-Sing Hsu developed an automatic parking system for vehicles with the help of position estimation and tracking algorithms. Mala Aggarwal,SimmiAggarwal, R.S.Uppal(2012) introduced the comparative implementation of automatic car parking system with least distance parking space in wireless sensor networks.

 DISADVANTAGE :

 Role of low power consumption sensors and controllers is an important factor while designing a proposed system. Powers supply also an important feature. Most of the existed systems focuses on indoor car parking, in case of street parking systems are failed to give better performance. Clouds and servers have important role in IoT smart car parking, choosing appropriate clouds will improve performance and life of device.

 PROPOSED SYSTEM :

 The proposed system uses Combination of Raspberry pi and Arduino Uno Microcontroller and 4 HC-SR04 sonars instead of IR and RFID. Sonar is connected on Arduino Uno which is used to check the availability of free parking slots, then sends these data to Raspberry pi by using USB Serial Communication.For this Project, we are focused on one parking station, we can monitor n number of parking stations using ARTIK cloud.

 ADVANTAGE :

 A Web and is developed to monitor Free parking slots from corresponding parking stations which uses web socket protocol to communicate with Artik cloud and receives the data from it. Google Map is integrated to find out parking stations. Free slot is updated in every 10 seconds.
