Description
Summary:The Smart Car Parking System using IR Sensor is a system that is developed to display the vacant or available parking slot. This Smart Parking system integrates a sensor which is called Infrared Sensor with an LCD Screen. The sensor is used to detect the absence or presence of a car when it enters the parking slot. The LCD Screen is then used to display the vacant parking slot to the driver. The Smart Parking system is developed using the Internet of Things technology. The purpose of the Smart Parking system is to help or assist drivers in finding a vacant parking slot. Furthermore, this system can also record the status of a parking slot and the exact time a car enters or exits a parking slot. The data of the recorded status and time which consist of numbers will be stored in the database for the use of the Administrative management. Thus, this system will also help the drivers in reducing their time spent in finding vacant parking slots. As such, the drivers save their energy and will help reduce the traffic congestion in the parking area. The development of the Smart Parking system is using the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) by implementing the waterfall model as the methodology. A user acceptance testing based on Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was conducted with 30 participants from age 18 – 40 years old to see the acceptance of the system. The test has two parts, the first part was demographic question and the second part was divided into four components and consisted of 12 questions. The result obtained from the testing was positively accepted by most of the participants. Therefore, the proposed system has been proven to be beneficial to the drivers and can also motivate other developers to help contribute to more future projects to help the drivers in finding a vacant parking slot easily.
