Abstract

In large parking lots, it is generally difficult for drivers to know ahead of time whether there will be available parking spots and where they are. Besides, it is logistically cumbersome to wait in line for paying parking fees when leaving. In this demo, we develop an intelligent parking system called iParking. iParking could help users monitor parking states, search for a vacant parking spot, reserve it and make a self-service payment. It is low-cost providing much convenience for both drivers and parking lot management.
