INTRO
As urban and semi-urban centres suffer from a
severe shortage of parking space compounded by
sky-rocketing land prices, multilevel car parking
systems are the only solution. In large car
parks, it's not always easy to find an unoccupied
spot, and it takes time to park and retrieve
vehicles. Moreover, in busy towns and cities,
management of parking lots poses a serious
challenge. Suitable manpower to guard, guide
and manage the system is not only hard to find,
but expensive. Automatic car parking systems can
counter this problem, making daily life so much
easier.

What automatic car parking systems can do
With the use of technology, car parking systems
can be automated and made 'intelligent' so
they- Enable users to locate empty parking slot
in the shortest time- Keep track of the activity
of the parking slot- Allow entry only when there
is space available, and/or to registered users-
Display the number of vacant slots- Operate a
systematic entry and exit point- Record,
process, store and channel parking activity
data- Provide security and safety for the car
from theft and damages while parking Such
automatic car parking systems are the future of
parking systems. The 'smart' parking that 'smart
cities are opting for, across the world.

Applications of automatic car parking systems

show rooms Universities Government
buildings Airports Hospitals Stadium

Advantages of automated parking facilities
Better security because patrons do not walk to
and from their space High parking efficiency
No driving while searching for an available space
reduced emissions Patrons wait for their car
in a controlled environment Less potential for
vehicle vandalism theft Minimal staff needed
if used by familiar parkers Retrieval time can
be less than the combined driving-parking-walking
time in conventional ramped parking
structures Eliminates the need for valet
parking Reduces the competition for the best
spaces. Since drivers do not need to be
concerned about the physical location of the
vehicle, they can simply drop off the car
without going through a lengthy process of
finding the best space

Key features of an automatic car parking system
VERTICAL LIFTSA hydro-electric system allows
vehicles to be moved vertically and laterally
until an available parking spot is located. The
actual layout of the parking spaces is optimised
for different vehicles, makes and models.
ENTRANCE PLATFORMThe entrance platform is an
access point that connects to the storage system.
The design of the platform is sturdy in order to
eliminate excessive amounts of noise and
vibration. Some systems also use turntables to
optimise movement between the send-off point and
the destination.
VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION Automatic identification
of the vehicle is the key to creating an
efficient and cost-effective system for parking
cars. The driver can get a time stamp that shows
all the data related to the location of the
vehicle and the time of the drop-off. This serves
as a receipt in addition to a convenient method
of ordering the return of the car.
