Project Idea
Design an IoT-based smart parking system that monitors parking slot availability in real-time and updates the status on a mobile app or web dashboard. This project helps drivers find available parking spaces quickly, reduces congestion, and promotes smart city infrastructure by automating parking management.
Project Description
The IoT Based Smart Parking System uses ultrasonic sensors to detect the presence of vehicles in parking slots. A NodeMCU (ESP8266/ESP32) microcontroller gathers data from these sensors and sends the status of each slot to a cloud platform like Blynk, ThingSpeak, or Firebase via Wi-Fi. Users can view real-time parking availability on their smartphones, making it easier to locate vacant spots. LED indicators can be added to guide drivers in physical parking lots. The system is scalable, portable, and an excellent prototype for smart city applications.

Order Processing Time:
- All project orders are processed within 2-3 business days after payment confirmation.
- After processing, the development of your project will begin. We require a minimum of 10-15 days to complete and prepare your project for shipment. However, please note that the delivery time is an estimate and may vary depending on project complexity and component availability.
-
Delivery Timeframe:
- While we strive to deliver your project within the specified timeframe, there is no guaranteed delivery date. The actual delivery time may be shorter or longer depending on various factors, including shipping delays, customs clearance, and unforeseen technical challenges.
- We will keep you informed of your project's progress and provide updates on the estimated delivery time as needed.
-
Shipping and Delivery Charges:
- Delivery charges are additional and are not included in the project price. The shipping cost will be calculated at checkout based on your location and the chosen shipping method.
- Customers are responsible for any customs duties, taxes, or fees that may be applicable in their country.
