Smart Parking System using Cloud based Computation and Raspberry Pi

Abstract

The internet of things plays a vital role in interconnection and automation of various physical devices, vehicles, home appliances and other things. With the help of software, various sensors, actuators, these objects connect and exchange data. This automation of devices enhances a person's standard of life and way of living, which is a need of future. A similar need is discussed in this paper. In this project a smart parking feature is discussed which enables a user of find a parking location and a free slot in that parking space inside a city. This project focuses on reducing time wasted on finding parking space nearby and on going through the filled parking slots. This in turn reduces the fuel consumption and standard of living.
