IoT and It's Role in Creating Smart Cities

Today, car parking is a major problem in developed overcrowded cities. Basically, there are lot of vehicles on the road and insufficient parking space. Therefore, a proficient parking management system is the best solution. Accordingly, we demonstrate the IoT based parking system that allows for efficient parking space utilization. To develop the system, IR sensors are used for checking parking slot availability along with a servo motors to simulate as gate opener motors. Blynk Platform was used for IOT management GUI design. This system reads the parking slots availability and updates data with the cloud server to let for checking parking slot availability online. This system helps users to confirm for accessible parking places online from anywhere and gain hassle free parking. The proposed Smart Parking system consists of an on-site deployment of an IoT module that is used to monitor and signalize the state of availability of each single parking space. A mobile application is also provided that allows an end user to check the availability of parking space and book a parking slot accordingly. This Book also describes a high-level view of the system architecture.
