In this paper, an intelligent automatic parking control method is proposed. First, the dynamical equation of the rear parking control is derived. Then a fuzzy logic control is proposed to perform the parking planning process. Further, a rear neural network is proposed for the steering control. Through the simulations and experiments, the intelligent auto-parking mode controllers have been shown...

We present a computer vision-based street parking detection. Our system detects vacant parking spots in between the T-shaped parking markers that are commonly used to indicate parking spots on the sides of streets. We detect these T marks using a template-based sliding window approach that convolves HOG features. Using these T marks, we can find parking regions in the image, and compute color h...

The conventional approach to assessing parking demands and regulating parking usage involves surveys of parker destinations, trip purposes, walking distances, arrivalkfeparture times, enforcement intensities, parking fees, etc. Parker destinations and characteristics are compared with the parking available on a block-by-block basis to identify locations of parking surpluses/deficiencies. Models...

Introduction:  Parking areas that are gathering places for tank trucks are potentially dangerous places. This study analyzes accident consequences of oil products carriers, to check and compare the hazard radius with recommended separation distances. Methods: This descriptive-analytical study was carried out in 5 stages, including: scenario selection, determination of the accidents source para...

Automated driving can help solve the current and future problems of individual transportation. Automated valet parking is a possible approach to help with overcrowded parking areas in cities and make electric vehicles more appealing. In an automated valet system, drivers are able to drop off their vehicle close to a parking area. The vehicle drives to a free parking spot on its own, while the d...

The proliferation of mobile devices, location-based services and embedded wireless sensors has given rise to applications that seek to improve the efficiency of the transportation system. In particular, new applications are arising that help travelers find parking in urban settings. They convey the parking slot availability around users on their mobile devices. Nevertheless, while engaged in dr...

RFID based vehicles parking technique uses micro controller with sensing circuits which sense entry and outgoing of the vehicles. In this technique the RFID card is swiped with the permission of vehicle’s parking owner. The RFID card which are given by the parking owners will be recharged by using the two push switches i.e. SW1 and SW2. When the vehicles enter in the parking system the money wi...

This paper designs an intelligent guidance system, based on wireless sensor networks, for efficient parking in parking lots. The proposed system consists of a parking space allocation subsystem, a parking space monitoring subsystem, a driving guidance subsystem, and a vehicle detection subsystem. In the system, we propose a novel and effective virtual coordinate system for sensing and displayin...

This demo shows a mobile Android app that uses openly available geographic data and crowdsources parking availability information, in order to let its users conveniently find parking when coming to work or driving into town. The application builds on Linked Data, and publishes the crowdsourced parking availability data openly as well. Further, it integrates additional related data sources, such...
