An Intelligent Car Parking Using IoT with Node MCU Module

Abstract

Car Parking is the major issues in congested cities of today. There are too many vehicles on the road and not enough parking spaces. This led to the need for efficient parking management systems. Thus needs the use of Internet of Things (IOT) based parking management system using Arduino, Nodemcu ESP8266 wifi module, and Blynk application. With the help of Node MCU esp8266 wifi module and Blynk application, the parking slots can be monitored from anywhere around the world. The Parking Area has any number of slots based on our requirements. Every slot has one IR (Infrared) Sensor. Each Sensor is used to detect the presence of car in the slot. These IR Sensors are connected with Arduino. So when a car is parked in the slot, the arduino sends a command to the Nodemcu esp8266 wifi module, the Nodemcu then sends the command to the Blynk application. Thus the system solves the Parking issue and get users an efficient IOT based parking management system.
