Smart Parking Management System

Smart Parking Management System: Revolutionizing Urban Parking Solutions

A Smart Parking Management System (SPMS) is a perfect solution for displaying available parking spaces and guiding drivers to park efficiently. Commonly used in shopping malls, airports, hospitals, office buildings, and residential communities, the SPMS consists of key components such as Ultrasonic Sensors, Bay LED Indicators, LED Displays, Data Collectors, a Central Processor, Software, and other essential accessories.

Features

Intuitive graphical interface for easy use.
Real-time tracking of parking space availability by facility, level, and individual spot.
Comprehensive reporting and statistics.
Ability to integrate facility floor plans into the software.
Monitoring of ultrasonic sensors and electronic signs.
System notifications for exceeding parking time, vehicles in transit, and other conditions.
Data sharing capability with city navigation systems.

What is Parking Management System?

Provides 4 optional ENTRY/ EXIT Modes

Long Range RFID (LRR) for season parkers – No stopping

Automatically dispenses Ticket or Card to hourly parkers

License Plate Recognition (LPR) for season parkers–No stopping

Season parkers swipe proximity card

ENTRY / EXIT Station

It issues hourly parking tickets with barcodes to allow entry into the parking area. Regular users can access the parking through self-service by tapping their cards near the reader built into the Entry/Exit Station. Alternatively, vehicles can enter or exit without stopping if a windshield tag is detected by the long-range external reader. Usually, the Entry/Exit Station works together with a Barrier Gate, Loop Detector, and other optional devices based on the specific needs of the location.

Smart Boom Barrier Gate

As a key component of the parking management system, the boom barrier prevents unauthorized vehicles from entering and allows access only to authorized users.

Manual Pay Station - MPS

When exiting, hourly parkers stop at the Manual Pay Station and hand their ticket to the attendant. The attendant scans the ticket using a barcode scanner connected to the MPS and collects the payment in cash. The payment details are shown on the screen and recorded in the cash register.

Loop Detector

Connected to an underground induction loop and equipped with two relay outputs, the loop detector is used to sense the presence of vehicles. It helps in controlling system operations such as opening gates or triggering other parking system components based on vehicle detection.

How does it work

Season Parkers with Long Range RFID (LRR)

Entry: The long-range reader detects the RFID tag, and the barrier gate opens.

Exit: The reader scans the tag again, the barrier opens, and a billing record is generated.

Season Parkers with License Plate Recognition (LPR)

Entry: The LPR camera captures the license plate, the barrier opens, and the image is stored for security.

Exit: The system reads the license plate again, opens the barrier, and displays the parking charges.

Hourly Parkers

Entry: The entry station automatically issues a ticket or card to the hourly parker.

Exit: The parker goes to the Manual Pay Station, hands over the ticket or card to the attendant, who scans it and collects the cash. The barrier then opens.

Other Season Parkers

Entry: The season parker swipes a proximity card at the entry station, and the barrier opens.

Exit: The season parker swipes the same card at the exit station, and the barrier opens.

PARKING GUIDANCE SYSTEM

Pinpoint unoccupied parking space & lead drivers to park in no time

OVERVIEW

As urban areas grow and the number of vehicles increases, large parking facilities with hundreds or even thousands of spaces are becoming more common. However, people are still facing challenges when it comes to parking. Here are some key parking-related issues:

Finding an available parking spot during peak hours is difficult.
There are vacant parking spaces, but they are hard to locate.
Despite a lack of available spaces, drivers must circulate to confirm occupancy.
Parking managers lack visibility into the real-time status of their facilities.
Traffic congestion and harmful emissions are increasing.
Drivers become frustrated and impatient.

HOW DOES IT HELP?

Ultrasonic Sensors and Bay Indicators are installed at each parking space to monitor and display their occupancy status. When the sensor detects an empty space, the corresponding indicator lights up green; when a car is detected, the indicator turns red.

The Data Collector groups and manages the sensors, collecting information for processing at the Central Processor. The availability data is then displayed on LED screens located at each entrance and intersection of the parking facility.

By informing drivers of the available parking spaces before they enter the lot and guiding them to the nearest spot, we make the parking experience quick and convenient.

In a parking lot equipped with BioEnable PGS, drivers can find a parking space in the shortest time possible. Even if only one space remains, they will be easily directed to it without hassle.

System Components

ULTRASONICS SENSOR

Ultrasonic detection units are installed above each parking space (either on the ceiling or cable tray) to detect the presence of vehicles and provide real-time data to the PMS system.

BAY INDICATOR

A high-brightness LED indicator, controlled by an Ultrasonic Sensor, shows the occupancy status of a parking space using different color lights. Red indicates the space is occupied, while green, blue, and yellow signal that the space is available.

LED DISPLAY

The LED Display is the first component drivers encounter in a parking lot equipped with BioEnable PGS. Outdoor LED Displays at entrances show the number of available spaces on each floor, while Indoor LED Displays at corners and intersections guide drivers to the nearest available parking spots.

DATA COLLECTOR & CENTRE PROCESSOR

The Data Collector acts as a link between the Central Processor, Ultrasonic Sensors, and LED Displays. It collects sensor data, transfers it to the Central Processor, and also relays availability information from the processor to the LED Displays. The Central Processor is the heart of the PGS system, handling data processing, storage, and distribution of information.
