Easy Park

Project Overview

The motivation of this project was to make it easier for students, teachers and guests to find parking spaces in parking garages. We did this by detecting parking spaces through a low power bluetooth mesh network. So each parking space has a custom built module that talks to one another. The data is relayed in a rudimentary fashion till it reaches the end node, which then displays the information on an android application, after being inserted into the database, through a web server. Vacant parking spots can also be viewed through a bright green LED.

Team Members

The members of this group comprises of two electrical engineers and computer engineers. The workload was split up by with the electrical team taking care of the PCB design, power regulation, as well as designing the MPPT solar charger. The computer engineering team took care of the database management, programming the mesh network, as well as the android application.
