Description
Summary:Vehicle Parking Space Locator with Surveillance System is developed to help drivers to locate available parking space in a parking area using their mobile devices via Bluetooth application. The system will provide information about the location of the parking space as well as the image of the parking area. The objective of the service is to enhance the existing parking system, to provide better service for drivers in searching of available parking space, and to utilize the Bluetooth application in mobile devices as the medium of the services. The service also looks forward in reducing the traffic congestion, high C02 emission, and the drivers' precious time which are derived from parking surveys activities. The methodology is based on the Rapid Application Development (RAD) model, which is the enhancement of waterfall model, since it is the most appropriate model to be used for fast project development and delivery if high quality system at low cost of investment. The service is hope would benefits mobile users and drivers in lowering thier fuel consumption, saving cost of services, and reducing user's time for parking surveys. The system will be integrating Visual Basic.NET with Matlab 7.0 tools. When a client/mobile user requests for available parking space information from the system via Bluetooth application, the system would respond to the request by providing the image of the current parking lot as well as the exact locations information. The parking area would be captured using Visual Basic.NET and the captured images would be processed using Matlab Image Processing Toolbox.
