ParkEZ: Parking made easy
Automation is the 21st century’s most cliched buzzword. However, most people mistake automation for throwing computing power and resources at solving problems - in the face of simpler, more intuitive solutions.
A simple solution to eliminate the parking woes the great country of India faces today - an automated parking solution which involves minimal hardware complexity to implement.
Technologies used:
- MongoDB to store parking related information
- React Native for the user app (iOS and Android both versions are being worked on)
- Express.js and Node for creating the API endpoints for the app
- Arduino to fetch data from ultrasonic sensors for smart parking
- NodeMCU with Adafruit API to interface the data coming from Arduino, and sending/receiving queries from the server
