Abstract— With the growth of technology in the current decade, we are confronting a parking challenge. Because large towns have a dense population, there are many vehicles on the road, which causes parking and traffic problems. The globe is confronted with a new challenge that is vehicle parking. It is estimated that one million automobiles use oil on a daily basis. This paper proposes an RFID based car parking system in a community. This system was created with the assistance of the internet of things (IOTs). IoT mainly involves the exchange of information or data between two physical devices. In the suggested system, an Arduino Uno microcontroller, ESP32, RFID sensors and IR sensors are used. The value of automation is growing every day. The primary function of Arduino in the proposed system is to serve as a platform for communicating digital devices and interactive objects capable of sensing and controlling physical components. The proposed system was built using an Arduino Uno board for vehicle parking and a ESP32 to connect the parking area to the web. In order to obtain information regarding the vacancy position of the parking slot, the suggested system included an infrared sensor in each slot. Therefore, to determine whether or not a person is in the database for the car parking system, RFID sensors are used. If the driver is listed in the database, the car will be allowed to enter the parking lot and the gate will open when the motors rotate in a clockwise direction. When the gate closes, the door will rotate in an anticlockwise direction and shows the user via led. From this proposed system, we get the information about the vacancy position of parking spot and notify the user through website.
