The Smart Parking System using Arduino Uno is a compact and efficient solution designed to address the growing parking challenges in urban areas. This system utilizes the Arduino Uno microcontroller as its core component, integrated with IR sensors, a servo motor, and an LCD display to automate parking slot detection and gate operations. The system operates by detecting vehicle presence at the entry and exit points using IR sensors, updating slot availability in real time on an LCD display, and controlling the entry and exit gates through a servo motor. This setup ensures seamless vehicle flow and reduces manual intervention, making it ideal for small and medium-sized parking lots. The proposed system overcomes limitations such as difficulty in finding available parking, traffic congestion, lack of automation and inefficient use of space through automated slot detection, cost-effective design, simplified setup and seamless integration with automated gate control via a servo motor and real-time display of slot status on an LCD, the system provides an efficient and user-friendly experience.
