The main aim of the project is to build an IOT based smart parking system using RFID technology. The purpose of this project is to provide automation for car parking system using IR Sensors.  This system facilitates the vehicle owners to park their vehicle without any hassle. This system comprises of a Microcontroller based monitoring system along with IR Sensors to know which of the slots are vacant. Here we are using IOT to store the vacant slot information into the Blynk app through ESP8266 WI-FI module. This system uses RFID Technology to accessing the parking slot and based on the parking time it will generate the bill and display on LCD. The Microcontroller is loaded with a program written in embedded ‘C’ language to perform the task. To perform this task microcontroller is loaded with an intelligent program written using embedded ‘C’ language.      

The features of the project are:  

1. IR sensor-based vehicle detection.
2. IOT based vacant slot monitoring system.
3. RFID based vehicle accessing and billing system.
4. Using Blynk mobile application to know the vacant slots.

       

The major building blocks of this project are:  

1. Regulated Power Supply
2. PIC Micro Controller.
3. IR sensors.
4. RFID reader and TAGS.
5. ESP8266 Wi-Fi module.
6. Crystal oscillator.
7. Reset.
8. LED indicators.

         

Software’s used:  

1. PIC-C compiler for Embedded C programming.
2. PIC kit 2 programmer for dumping code into Micro controller.
3. Express SCH for Circuit design.
