Inspiration

Nowadays It´s very difficult to find a parking place downtown, specially in big cities. And meanwhile many private parking places are empty for a long time as they go to work somewhere else. So we want to create a service which can help citizens to offer their private parking places to those who need it and make some profit.

What it does

This service will help the parking place owner to offer their places and help the leaser to find the place and park the car.

How I built it

We connect the sensors like Raspberry Pi, Pi camera and Ultrasonic distance sensor with backend through LoRaWAN. We are using openalpr for recognizing car plates. The Backend can check if the parking car is authorized.

Challenges I ran into

  • Connecting Arduino with LoRaWAN
  • Building the Application in Backend

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

  • Development of with a very valuable and practical business model and cases.
  • We use low cost sensors set.
  • We addressed the society topic with the parking difficulty.

What I learned

I learned about LoRaWAN protocol and the practical usage of it. I have also learnt how to develop a business model.

What's next for Here2Park

We want to refine our technical solutions and provide a real product.
