Car Parking Management System Using Amr-Sensor Technology

This paper discusses an innovative car parking management system based on the Anisotropic Magneto-Resistive sensor (AMR). The suggested system would provide cars' drivers with accurate information about location and availability of parking spots. The status of each parking lot is detected by its corresponding sensor node, and reported periodically to a database. This latter converts the collected data into meaningful information which can be viewed via a LED screen at the entrance of the parking and a phone application. The paper also discusses the different functionalities of the system by means of design. Furthermore, a draft cost analysis is presented for a considered scenario of the system's deployment.
