Design And Implementation Of An Android Smart Parking Mobile Application

Smart parking is an important sector of smart city technologies. This paper presents the design and implementation of a smart parking application in a university campus to help university personnel prebook a parking space swiftly and easily. Each parking slot is numbered with a distinctive number and has an infrared sensor. The sensors are connected to an Arduino device to indicate whether the position is vacant or busy. The application uses several programming techniques in Android Studio and SQL Database. The efficient management of the available parking spaces is demonstrated and can be extended to cover other areas and venues.
