Design and Implementation Monitoring and Booking Systems for Smart Parking at Engineering Faculty Campus

Parking our vehicles sometimes become troublesome and situation gets worse when the user is required to park their cars at the unknown parking availability. Not to mention, this situation also occurs within the new Campus of Engineering Faculty of Universitas Hasanuddin. This campus has a motto to be the centre of technology, so it is something unfortunate that the parking management does not incorporate technology to support the parking system. This paper emphases on designing smart parking model which is suitable to be adopted within this new campus. Technology based Internet of Things is used to modernised the parking system with advanced features of monitoring and booking mechanisms. These features are accessible through smart phones which increases the usability of the proposed smart parking system. The experiments show that the parking management system can function accurate and effectively in enhancing the quality of parking system, with the two-mentioned features of the proposed smart parking system, which are monitoring and booking capabilities.
