Design and Development of Smart Motorcycle Parking System

Nowadays, increased number of motorcycles in big cities of Pakistan causes the major issue of parking. The motorcycle parking requires a lot of space in open land. The Automated Smart Parking System requires small area while increase the parking number. A smart motorcycle parking system is an electro-mechanical system designed to reduce the space required for motorcycle parking. To minimize the amount of space lost in a multi-story parking lot, the smart motorcycle parking system, on the other hand, uses a mechanical system to transfer bikes to and from parking bays (rather than the driver). While a smart motorcycle parking system is more similar to an automatic storage and retrieval system for motorcycle. In a congested parking lot, it is difficult for drivers to manually hunt for a space. Traditional techniques for identifying open or occupied space are thought to be inaccurate and wasteful. As a result, our system provides a full range of parking assistance services, from helping drivers find and reserve a space to providing navigational aid to enable them park effectively at their intended location. In this work, radio frequency identification (RFID) tags are used to detect vacant parking slot and store and retrieve motorcycles. The proposed system results in decrease in land usage, increase the storage of the parking, increased safety of motorcycle, and fully automatic system.
