How Does the Parking Guidance System Work Step‑by‑Step?

1、Display the number of parking spaces

When the car owner arrives outside the parking lot, the entrance clearly displays the real-time number of parking spaces and rates, assisting the car owner in choosing a parking location and/or floor.

2、Automatic identification of license plates at the entrance

After the ALPR system recognizes the license plate (with the option to compare black/white lists), it automatically opens the gate control lever to allow the vehicle to enter the parking lot. Car owners can see the number of vacant spaces and directional indicators at entrances, turns, or intersections, which helps them determine the direction and floor of parking and quickly find parking spaces.

3、The vehicle enters the gateway

Install radar sensors at the fence machine positions at the entrance and exit, and set the length and width of the sensing area according to the width of the lane and the type of managed vehicles. Adopting a detectable direction radar induction method can avoid misoperations caused by the environment; For example, pedestrians walking or vehicles reversing and leaving without entering when the gate is open. When the vehicle enters the gateway, the radar wave triggers a signal that is synchronously transmitted to the fence machine and parking management host to perform anti smashing vehicle (person) and parking space counting functions. When the vehicle recognizes the license plate and triggers the area set by the radar sensor, the system will automatically deduct an empty parking space and display it on the empty parking space display in real time.

4、Detect and display parking space status

ParkCam ®  The parking space detection camera has bright and multi-color LED indicator lights, installed above the parking space to detect and display the parking space status, assisting car owners in quickly finding parking spaces and transmitting the detection results to ParkHelper in real time ®  Parking space management host, to integrate the number of empty parking spaces in each area, floor, and total.

5、Automatic payment and assistance in finding parking spaces for vehicles

When visitors forget the parking location of their vehicles, they can enter the license plate number and search online through their mobile phones CarFinder ®  Smart vehicle search host displays parking location and vehicle photos; When the payment is completed, a photo of the parking location can also be displayed.

6、The vehicle leaves the gateway

When the vehicle leaves the gateway, the radar sensor will be triggered, and the signal will be synchronously transmitted to the fence machine and parking management host to perform anti smashing vehicle (person) and parking space counting functions. When the vehicle simultaneously triggers the areas set by two radar wave sensors, the system will automatically add an empty parking space and display it on the empty parking space display in real time.
