Perkey

Traffic congestion caused by vehicles is an alarming problem at a global scale, which is growing exponentially, and car parking problem is a major contributor to it. parking lots have been largely ignored when it comes to technological innovations and ideas. however, with increasing number of vehicles on the roads in urban cities, it's time that we effectively address this issue. manually searching for a parking space is a routine activity for many people in cities around the world. simply put, it's frustrating, inefficient, time-consuming, leads to wastage of fuel and a major increase in the carbon footprint. in our project, we have proposed of a smart parking system, that we like to call ‘perkey’, which consists of an on-site deployment of an iot module in each parking spot that is used to monitor and signal the state of availability of the respective parking spot.
