RFID Based Vehicle Identification and Paid Parking System

Abstract

In the current scenario, parking has become a major issue as there is space, money and manual work related issues associated with it. Though the advancements in technology have brought parking facilities the way we see today, these limitations are yet to be overcome.  We find it difficult to find a parking slot during peak traffic times. Payment is also difficult as it is manually done; payment is not fully automatic as it involves direct payment of cash or coin. Also, it involves payment for a fixed amount of time which might not ensure full utilization of money spent in case of leaving before the estimated time. In this project, an attempt has been made to overcome the problems encountered in the present paid parking system through RFID technology.
