ABSTRACT
Due to the proliferation in the number of vehicles on the
road, traffic problems are bound to exist. This is due to the fact
that the current transportation infrastructure and car park facility
developed are unable to cope with the influx of vehicles on the
road.
To alleviate the aforementioned problems, the smart
parking system has been developed. With the implementation of
the smart parking system, patrons can easily locate and secure a
vacant parking space at any car park deemed convenient to
them.
Vehicle ingress and egress are also made more convenient
with the implementation of hassle free payment mechanism.
With vehicle detection sensors aplenty on the market, the
choices made may defer due to the different requirements in
addition to the its pros and cons.
Subsequently, the various sensor systems used in
developing the systems in addition to the recent research and
commercial system on the market are examined as vehicle
detection plays a crucial role in the smart parking system.
The proposed system illustrates the counter for the cars
enter the park and give the order to the park gate never to open

to any entered car when the number of cars in the car reach the
highest number. In addition, the same counter made for the exit
gate (where is the same the entrance gate in this project) count
in reverse order for the cars exit from the park.
The principle of operation of the park is the piezoelectric
sensor depends on the weight of the car (here small push button)
when the car press the button, the counter adds or subtracts one
from the counter number.

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
In the recent years, a large number of new registered
vehicles were reported compared to the previous years, which
makes it a rough estimate of 54.5% increase in a span of 7 years
(Malaysian Ministry of Transportation, 2007).
Referring to the aforesaid statistics provided by the
Malaysian Ministry of Transportation, the current transportation
infrastructure and car park facilities are deemed insufficient in
sustaining the influx of vehicles on the road.
Therefore, problems such as traffic congestion and
insufficient parking space inevitably crops up. In Asia, the
situation are made worse by the fact that the roads are
significantly narrower compared to the West (Inaba et al., 2001).
Various measures have been taken in the attempt to
overcome the traffic problems. Although, the problem can be
addressed via many methods, the paper focuses on the car park
management system introduced, which is the smart parking
system.
This study will review the evolution of vehicle detection
technologies as well as the detection systems developed over the
years.

1.1 Smart Parking Systems:
The smart parking system implemented mainly in the
Europe, United States and Japan (Shaheen et al., 2005) is
developed with the incorporation of advanced technologies and
researches from various academic disciplines. With its
deployment in the car park, it is hoped that it would solve the
aforementioned problems faced by the patrons within the car
park.
1.2 Advantages of smart parking system implementation:
The smart parking system is considered beneficial for the
car park operators, car park patrons as well as in environment
conservation (Shaheen et al., 2005; Chinrungrueng et al., 2007).
For the car park operators, the information gathered via the
implementation of the Smart Parking System can be exploited to
predict future parking patterns.
Pricing strategies can also be manipulated according to
the information obtained to increase the company’s profit. In
terms of environment conservation, the level of pollution can be
reduced by decreasing vehicle emission (air pollutant) in the air
(Shaheen et al., 2005). This can be attributed to the fact that
vehicle travel is reduced. As fuel consumption is directly related
to vehicle miles travelled, it will be reduces as well.
www.pdfpro.co

Patrons are also able to benefit from smart parking system
as parking space are able to be fully utilized (Kurogo et al.,
1995; Sakai et al., 1995) with a safer (Shaheen et al.,
2005; Chinrungrueng et al., 2007), optimized and more efficient
system implemented (Sakai et al., 1995; Shaheen et al., 2005).
The system is made more efficient as vehicle travel time and
search time are significantly reduced due to the information
provided by the smart parking system.
With the information provided, drivers are able to avoid
car park that are fully occupied and locate vacant parking spaces
with ease elsewhere. The number of vehicles parked illegally by
the roadside which leads to traffic congestion is also reduced as
it is absorbed into the car parks (Kurogo et al., 1995). Most
importantly, traffic congestion can be reduced. All this would
eventually lead to convenience for the patrons.

1.3 Aim of the Work:
The purpose of the project is to reduce the number of
workers in the garage and reduce the prevalence of owners of
cars because there is in the 7-meter counter at the entry of the
car has a count down. While, when the exit is counting
ascending or according to what is mentioned or written within
the programming of Arduino and determine the absorption of
the garage number of vehicles through the owner.
When the highest value of the meter, the door of the
garage is closed electronically and can not be opened until the
exit of one of the cars and this project can be added by several
devices that help the person to gain time and reduce the
congestion caused by protrusion such as the depletion of the
GPS.

CHAPTER TWO
THEORY OF THE PROJECT
The project works through a set of instructions and
commands placed by the programmed engineer within the
Arduino through the software.
Arduino was feed through DC 12V source and have
several blocks as per use, including a 5-volt, We put the 7-
segment device and it has 10 blocks and it is divided into three
sections where 7 blocks of it are accompanied by resistance
according to its size.
For our project, we chose 470 ohm and 7 resistors of the
resistors connect with the 7 secmnet and the second end is
connected by wires to the arduino and each son represents Line
in the 7 Sequent. We will have three parties take two parties to
the vcc and the third party to the ground according to the feed
board and the engineer programmer through the program within
the Adrienne places all these orders and definitions.
As for the machine Almator Servea be simple and work
through the programming within the Ardennes and there are
three exits to be the outlet to the ground and the second to the
Vcc in the Ardennes and the third director to one of the girls in
the Ardennes and control through the above program and works

Almator angle 90. Any angle list the corner program is preset in
the preset program. The last piece is a sensitive car weight when
entering or leaving the car .
The project needs some components to work properly.
Here, all the components will introduced with details.
2.1 Arduino Board:
Arduino is a project made by the largest technical
community of engineers, developers and hobbyists whose goal
is to develop ideas and interactive control projects around the
world, based on different types of electronic panels but
programmed in a language Single programming and free.
Figure 1: Arduino UNO Board.

10
Sure, Arduino is not the only electronic controller in the
market, but there are many micro-controllers available in the
market such as Parallax, Basic Stamp and the most powerful
competitor, Raspberry Pi, all with powerful capabilities and the
ability to work. Full projects, of course depending on the needs
of your project, but what distinguishes the following Arduino
Open source platform Open Source Hardware and Software.
Arduino is made primarily of ATMEGA8 and
ATMEGA168 controllers, and all its designs are licensed under
the Creative Commons license. This is the most important
feature for electronic circuit designers because it makes it easier
for them to design anything they wantThe software is written in
C ++, and is available to everyone to download and
programmers can modify it according to their needs.
It is the most widely used and widely used one of the
many Arduino's. It is the first choice for beginners. It is easy to
learn. It operates with an ATmega328 controller. This type has
14 digital ports (I / O), 6 of which can be used as ports to control
the " PWM Outputs ", the most important feature of this type is
that the control chip" ATmega328 "is not fixed in the board, but
installed on the holder of the integrated circuit" IC ". This
feature makes it the best option for beginners so that if burned
the slide while working on your project by mistake, you can
www.pdfpro.co

11
Restore your work on the board as soon as you change the slide
The ATmega328 controller is similar to the same model.
The first-ever type of Arduino's motherboard is the
ATmega32u4 controller, which has a unique feature that
contains a built-in USB connection, eliminating the need to use
a secondary processor. The feature allows the panel as soon as it
is connected to your device to appear as a keyboard and mouse,
which makes it ideally suited to build various applications that
enable you to control your PC.
Advantages of Arduino:
1-Simplicity
Arduino's paintings are designed to suit the needs of all
engineers, designers, professors, students, and interactive
electronics enthusiasts around the world.
2- The price
The Arduino Plate is less expensive than any competitor
of the same type. The most expensive painting is not more than
$ 50.
www.pdfpro.co

12
3- Self-Assembly
Easy to deal with and easy to connect circuits, as we
mentioned in our first article that it was an easy solution to the
problem of microcontrollers and complex connections.
4- Multi-platform
The Arduino program has the ability to work with all the
different operating systems of Windows, Mac and Linux, while
most other boards running on Windows only
5- Easy and simple software environment
The "Environment" programming environment is
designed to be easy for beginners and powerful professionals
and its programming language "Arduino C" is easy to learn
2.2 Seven Segment:
The 7-segment display, also written as “seven segment
display”, consists of seven LEDs (hence its name) arranged in a
rectangular fashion as shown. Each of the seven LEDs is called
a segment because when illuminated the segment forms part of a
numerical digit (both Decimal and Hex) to be displayed. An
additional 8th LED is sometimes used within the same package
thus allowing the indication of a decimal point, (DP) when two
www.pdfpro.co

13
or more 7-segment displays are connected together to display
numbers greater than ten.
Figure 2: Seven-Segment Display.
2.3 The Servo Motor:
The servo engine is a motor that comes with a Gear
gearbox and a Shaft transmission that gives motion greater
torque and greater precision. This engine can rotate 180 degrees
and in some types 360 degrees.
The servomotor is internally made up of a "mostly
microcontroller" control circuit. When the engine gives pulses at
a certain time constant, the engine rotates to the angle according
to that time constant.
www.pdfpro.co

14
In each type, the time constant varies from one engine to
another according to the manufacturer and the technical bullet in
that comes with the servo engine.
In the Arduino, programming environment there is a
library called Servo Library installed in the program. This
library gives us the ability to control most of the 180 degree
Cervo drives. At the end of this post, you will have the ability to
use the library's commands through practical examples.

2.5 The Chronometers counters:
Chronometers counters consist of a row of shutters
moving from position to position in response to the so-called
event. This incident can be one hour or more and the meter is
used to count the number of accidents. The number of positions
passed by the meter before returning to the first position is
called Modulo. The counter contains a (n) flop on Modulo equal
to a maximum limit, but of course it is not necessary for the
meter to pass through all possible positions. In this case Modulo
has less counter than The ring counter.
This counter is also seen as a displacement log consisting
of 4 D - type conductors connected in a way that allows
displacement to the right. The INITIATE is initially upgraded to
a logical one for a short moment to transfer the FFO to the SET
position and the rest of the jumpers to the RESET position. The
clock pulse is then applied and the meter starts to count. Each
edge causes a shift of SETT position from one flip to another.
After four successive cycles, the meter returns to the initial
position.
Reading the meter recorded in the ring meter is very
simple. All we need to do is determine which flip is in the SET
position. For this purpose, the output of each flip (Q) is
connected to a show unit showing the number recorded when
the level of (Q) is high and when the counter begins with the
www.pdfpro.co

17
count we will see that the numbers will appear according to the
following sequence: 0_1_2_3_0.
The waves start at the moment of selection where (QO =
1) and (Q2 = Q3 = Q4 = 0). The higher logical level then moves
from one output to another, giving a set of serial pulses that can
be used to sequence the execution of a set of processes.
2.6 Counter-connected counter or Johnson counter:
Despite the simplicity of the ring meter, it does not use
the pulses economically. The ring-bearing (n) is flipped to it
(MOD-n) while n is a position. The connected end meter, also
known as Johnson Johnson makes better use of thrusters. As is
evident from the figure, this annular counter is similar to one
difference: the link between the end of the meter and its starting
point is from 'Q3' instead of 'Q3'.
Assuming that all the shutters have been wiped out (Q0 =
Q1 = Q2 = Q3 = 0) when the next open front comes, the zero
moves to the shutters (FF3, FF2, FF1). The FFO will move to
the SET position. Because the output (Q3) is connected to the
inlet (FFO). If the meter moves from the position (0000 = Q0
Q1 Q2 Q3) to the position (1000 = Q0 Q1 Q2 Q3). The
sequence of positions that the meter passes, which we note is
equal to eight, twice the number of pulses in the meter. If the
www.pdfpro.co

18
connected end meter has a (MODULO-2n) while the ring
counter as we have seen (MODULO-n). To read the count that
the Johnson counter arrived at, there is a need for a number of
separate outputs equal to the number of positions. So that only
one out of these exits is at level 1 while the rest are at level
(zero). To do this we use the Decoder circuit.
2.7 Other Examples of Metering Meters:
The ring counter and the Johnson meter are the same as
the counters, because the clock is applied to all the pumps
simultaneously, but these counters suffer from the economic
non-use of the pumps. Although the Johnson counter is better
than the ring counter in this respect, it needs the circuit to
decipher the code while it does not need the ring counter.
We will now look at other types of counters that take full
or near full advantage of the available positions and start with
the counters using () mode. If we set up a table containing a set
of binary numbers arranged in numerical order, we note that the
lower BIT changes with each counting step and that the next
BIT is changed with each counting step where the BIT is equal
to one. The BIT () changes when both () and (BITS) are equal to
one. In general, we can say that the top-ranking BIT changes
when all lower-level BITs are equal to one at a time.
www.pdfpro.co

19
These observations lead us to devise the following
method to form a counter that follows the counting sequence
correctly: For the lower-order BIT, we use a flip switch to
change its position with each hourly cycle.
For the next BIT, we use a flip switch to change its
position when the initial pitch is in the SET position. In general,
the meter will consist of a number of shutters equal to the
number of BITS and each flip will change its position when all
the lower-level BIT is hers are in the SET position. In this way,
we obtain the counter shown in Fig. 5a which uses J-K skips
that change from the position when J = K = 1. For example, the
FF3 is replaced by J = K3 = 1 and this condition is achieved
when Q0 = Q1 = Q2 = 1 is required. Figure 5b shows the output
currents of this meter.
Note from Figure (5a) that Gate G1 is of no use, but used
only to show the shape consistent. We also note that the number
of entrances to AND gates used increases with the number of
shutters and this, of course, leads to the complexity of the
circuit. Therefore, it is usually used for another method of
forming the meter. Here, too, it is possible to make sure that the
switch will not change its position until all the predecessors are
in position (SET = Q1 = Q1 = Q2 =1).

CHAPTER FOUR
CONCLUSIONS
In this study, the various types of smart parking system
and has been presented. From the various examples of the
implementation of the smart parking system being presented, its
efficiency in alleviating the traffic problem that arises especially
in the city area where traffic congestion and the insufficient
parking spaces are undeniable. It does so by directing patrons
and optimizing the use of parking spaces.
With the study on all the sensor technologies used in
detecting vehicles, which are one of the most crucial parts of the
smart parking system, the pros and cons of each sensor
technologies can be analysed. Although, there are certain
disadvantages in the implementation of visual based system in
vehicle detection as described earlier, the advantages far
outweighs its disadvantages.
