PROBLEM:
● Difficult to find an empty spot in a large, multi-storey parking lot
● Number of empty parking spaces is not known
● People have to go around the complete parking lot finding a free spot
● Time is wasted
● Manual assistance is needed
SOLUTION:
● Automated IoT based system
● Uses Bolt Cloud
● Database is updated every 10 second
● UI displays number of empty parking spaces on each floor
● LED in each parking spot to indicate empty/occupied spots
