Automated Parking
Introduction
For the project of Microprocessor Architecture, i have made a automated parking. It count the number of car inside it, print the number on a screen and open the gate automaticly. It really usefull to understand how works all the parking you see everyday around you. }
Overview
Block Diagram of the project :
Hardware Design
Software Design
The project is suppose to detect a car at the entrance or exit and open the coresponding gate and verify the number of parking place availible for printing the result into the LCD screen. The detection for the gate are made with the infrared obstacle sensor who send back an high level when an obstacle is detected. If there is a car detected, we open the gate and keep it open until the two sensor stop sending high level. For the parking place, those check the distance of object in front of it so if a value is small enough then the parking place is taken. The LCD screen print the result with some text. I'm using “library” to help me with my code in the arduino program.
Results Obtained
The project worked as espected, the gate open when corresponding IR sensors are detecting an obstacle. The LCD screen is printing the number of place availible in the parking and change when the Ultrasonic sensor detect a car in the place. But it seems that the IR sensor have some problem detecting.
Conclusions
This project was my first of that kind and also a great experience. It made me put in use what i have learned during the laboratories while fixing the problem that appear during this one.
