Enhancing Urban Mobility: A Smart Parking System Using IoT and Machine Learning

Abstract

Traffic jams & drivers searching for parking can be a real, especially with more people living in cities and the rise in cars. This paper a smart parking guidance system that helps manage parking spots using the Internet of Things (IoT) & some clever machine learning tricks. It's an IoT solution for the tough parking issues we see in big cities. As the number of cars keeps growing, especially during busy times, it becomes harder for drivers to find available spots. So, we present a cool smart parking system which uses Arduino parts and a mobile app. This system sets up on-site slot modules that keep track of the status of individual parking spaces, showing whether they are free or not. Plus, there's a mobile app so users can check spot availability & even reserve spaces ahead of time. This smart parking system could really help cities save money & protect the environment by cutting down on fuel use & pollution.
