What is Arduino? An open source. Prototyping platform. Easy to use hardware and software. Works according to the instructions to the microcontroller to the board.

Why Arduino? Inexpensive. Cross-platform. Simple, clear programming environment. Open source – extensible software and hardware.

We are using Arduino Uno R3

Arduino automated Parking Lot System Microcontroller based Parking system.  Keeps track of the number of cars parked (09 being the max number). Shows the number of slots unoccupied. Controls the gate-arm by itself.

Project Objectives To design and build up a prototype of an automated car park system. To learn how to control the prototype system for automated parking. To acknowledge how to program Arduino and make it work on any

system.

List of necessities Arduino UNO R3 RC Micro Servo (Hitec HS-55 or similar) 7-Segment Display Common anode 470 ohms resistors 1/4 w 5% Mini breadboard 170 points Cable jumpers Male-to-Male Solid wire AWG #22 (breadboard jumpers) Cardboard aluminum foil Alligator clips Wooden Coffee Stirrer (the barrier) White glue

Real life implementation Autonomous car-maneuvering system to perform parallel, perpendicular

or angle parking. Enhancing the comfort and safety of driving in constrained

environments to steer the car with attention. To ensure collision-free motion within the available space.

Limitations The 7-segment display shows the maximum count when if power is gone

and again comes back. Once the barrier is opened or closed, there is a count of the car. At the time of entering two consecutive cars, there is a overcrowding

situation. There is a prohibition of entering and leaving two cars at a time.
