Abstract - The dependence on transportation has headed to the evident of increase in the number of vehicles on the roads around the world, which have a negative impact on quality of life such as the congestion on the roads. Consistent efforts are being made in the field of IoT in order to maximize the productivity and reliability of urban infrastructure. Problems such as, traffic congestion, limited car parking facilities and road safety are being addressed by IoT. The parking systems requires motorists to display available parking slots. This project will serve as the solution to the outdated and inconvenient old manual system. The Smart Parking System is an automated parking solution that utilizes Arduino and Node MCU microcontrollers, IR sensors, LCD display, and a servo motor to enable efficient and convenient parking management. The system is aimed at improving parking efficiency and reducing congestion in parking lots. The system employs IR sensors to detect the presence of a vehicle in a parking space and displays real-time parking status on an LCD display. The IR sensors detect the presence of a vehicle in a parking space and send signals to the microcontroller, which then controls the servo motor to move a barrier to allow or deny access to the parking space. The Node MCU is used to connect the system to the internet, allowing real-time monitoring of parking space availability through a mobile application or website. The LCD display provides feedback to the user on the status of the parking space. The servo motor is used to control the opening and closing of the parking gate. The Node MCU and Arduino microcontrollers work in tandem to ensure reliable and secure data transfer between the system components, thereby enhancing the overall performance of the Smart Parking System. This system represents a technological advancement in parking management and promises to improve the parking experience for drivers, reduce traffic congestion, and enhance urban mobility.
