In the world today, Cities, especially metropolitan cities, experience overpopulation. This issue demands the development of solid strategic planning that uses infrastructure, innovation, and technology to adapt to rapid changes. To address the mobility issues in cities with the ever-increasing number of vehicles, we propose a solution that develops a smart parking system. The solution we offer is to make a plan for various parking areas, grid them out, deploy modules at every parking spot that consists of Raspberry Pi, sensors that detect if a car’s there or not and send real-time information to the app, provide a pre-booking system using the car registration numbers and detect them on entry using cameras. This system provides for overall better dissipation of knowledge as opposed to the current method of going to the place and searching for a parking spot.
