Abstract: The Smart Car Parking System is an IoT-based solution designed to automate the process of parking and gate control using advanced technologies such as an ESP32 microcontroller, infrared (IR) sensors, RFID modules, and servo motors. The system detects the presence of vehicles at the entrance and within parking spaces, enabling seamless entry and exit while ensuring optimal utilization of available parking spots. By leveraging three IR sensors, the system determines if a parking spot is vacant or occupied and triggers the servo motor to control the opening and closing of the parking gate. Additionally, an RFID-based access control mechanism ensures that only authorized vehicles are allowed entry. Through IoT integration, the system provides real-time monitoring of parking status via a mobile or web interface, allowing users to remotely track space availability and manage the parking process. This automated and secure car parking solution optimizes parking management, reduces human intervention, and enhances user experience.
