Automatic e-ticketing and vehicle parking system

Abstract

Smart cities have been the vision for the country for a while, and one of the features for the development of a smart city is to develop a good mobility for transport with efficient car parking management systems. A good parking management system must assist people to find vacant parking slots and provide automatic on-line payment options, to reduce the traffic and to save time. In this paper, implementation of prototype of automatic e-ticketing and vehicle parking system is presented. The proposed system consists of automatic gate control, e-ticketing and vacant space monitoring, implemented using Raspberry Pi. Android application on user’s smart phone helps in easy user interface making the system, easy to use in real time scenario.
