 To provide ease, and sense of safety and security of the vehicle in the
crowded areas, we can use automation using Mechatronics approach.

 Also, parking space has become a very big problem, and in the era of
miniaturization it has become a very crucial necessity to avoid wastage of space
in the modern, big companies, apartments, etc.
The two classes of parking systems currently in use to ease the parking
problems are:

 Self Parking Cars

 Automated Multi-storeyed Car Parking
 A Self Parking System is an autopilot technology for
automobiles that allows a car to park itself.

 Self-parking technology is mostly used in parallel parking

situations. Parallel parking requires cars to park parallel to a
curb, in line with the other parked cars.
 Parallel parking is a method of parking a vehicle
in line with other parked cars.

 Cars parked in parallel are in one line, parallel to

the curb, with the front bumper of each car
facing the back bumper of the adjacent one.

 Parallel parking is considered to be one of

the hardest skills for new drivers to learn.
 Self-parking cars currently on the market are not completely
autonomous, but they do make parallel parking much easier.
 The driver still regulates the speed of the vehicle by pressing
and releasing the brake pedal.
 The engine’s idle speed is enough to move the car into the
parking space without pressing the gas pedal.
 The interface between the driver and the car is a computer
screen mounted on the dashboard which gives the driver
notifications such as when to stop, when to shift into reverse,
and when to slowly ease off the brake to move the car into
the parking spot.
 Sensors distributed around the front and rear bumpers, acting as
transmitter and receiver.

 Backup cameras mounted on rear bumpers of vehicles that tow

difficult-to-see trailers.

 RADAR to detect objects.

 A microcontroller on a single integrated circuit containing
a processor core, memory, and programmable I/O
peripherals controls the cars motion during ‘self-parking’
mode.
 The sensors/RADAR fixed on the bumpers are connected to
the microcontroller, whose feedback controls the steering
wheel using servomotors for proper manoeuvring of the
vehicle.
 There is a clearance value set beyond which an obstacle should
not come closer to the vehicle. The microcontroller sends a
signal to alert the driver when the clearance value is reached.
 Automatic multi-stored car parking system is very good
substitute for car parking area. In space where more than 100
cars need to be parked and also to reduce the wastage of area, this
system can be used.

 This Automatic Car Parking enables the parking of vehicles floor

after floor and thus reducing the space used. This makes the
system modernized and a space-saving one.
 Automated parking is a method of automatically parking
and retrieving cars typically using a computerised system of
pallets, lifts and carriers.

 It is most suitable on expensive sites and where land is very

limited for economical development with a ramp parking.
 Car enters the building.

 Driver collects a token from the machine.

 Car is directed to one of the vacant garages.

 As the car enters the garage, its dimensions are measured

using LDR sensors.

 Once the driver leaves the garage, the system confirms the
parking operation from the user.
 The platform(pallet) on which the car is standing is then
lifted using forklift and moved to a free slot in the parking.

 The system relates the code on the token to the position of

the car in the building.

 When the user is back, he swipes his token on the machine.

 The machines displays the garage number in which the car

would arrive.

TYPES OF MULTI-LEVEL CAR PARKING
SYSTEM

• TOWER SYSTEM
• CRANE SYSTEM
• PUZZLE SYSTEM
• SILO SYSTEM
• AGV SYSTEM
• RGC SYSTEM
• SHUTTLE SYSTEM
TOWER PARKING SYSTEM

Tower parking, an elevator parking system with vertical allocation of parking

rooms and vertical movement of lifts, is ideal to maximize parking in narrow
plots. In a space required only for 3 parking spots, it can increase the capacity
by up to 20 times.

Key advantages
• Space - effective installation makes parking upto 60 cars possible in the
space required for 3
• Easy maintenance
• Bottom, middle and top entrance possible
• Inbuilt and standalone options available
• Human - oriented design
• Computerized control systems
CRANE PARKING SYSTEM

A Crane parking system consists of a central lifting and positioning

mechanism that is built into the center isle of a parking structure. The rails that
the crane glides on are installed at the ceiling and floor and run down the
center isle. This crane mechanism is responsible for positioning a vehicle at a
selected parking slot. Parking slots are positioned on either side of the center
isle.
One benefit to this system is the
ability of the crane to move in the
up/down and left/right directions at
once, thereby positioning itself
quickly. Typically there is only one
crane installed on the rail set.
However, to increase the
redundancy of the system, another
crane can be added to the rails and
the two are coordinated by
software. Keep in mind that with
this configuration the parking slots
located on the extreme ends of the
PUZZLE CAR PARKING SYSTEM

This system features combination pallets carrying cars. Individually

load and unload of the cars is possible. Thus system is independent
system. This system is electromechanically operated. Fast IN & OUT
of the cars is possible. Easy maneuvers of the cars. Combination of
multiple levels vertically &horizontally is possible. We have specially
designed PIT type puzzle parking system also. Suitable for indoor &
outdoor installations. Mostly preferred in residential complexes, IT
parks commercial complexes, malls, hotels etc.
SILO CAR PARKING SYSTEM

A silo system is cylindrical in nature, similar to a grain silo. Vehicles are

parked at the outer edge of the core. The core is occupied by a
lifting/rotating mechanism that accomplishes the vehicle positioning,
typically allowing only one vehicle to be manipulated at a time. Silo
mechanisms do however allow simultaneous up/down and axial
positioning, which can move the vehicles rather quickly.
Though silo systems may be constructed above ground, these parking
systems are normally constructed below, giving least issue to poor soil
conditions.
AGV CAR PARKING SYSTEM

An automated guided vehicle (AGV) based system is unlike a mono-

path system, which is limited to one lane of lateral movement along a
steel rail. An AGV system employs robots that roll freely in any
direction across solid concrete slabs (including underneath parked
cars) enabling faster retrievals and the ability to work around
obstacles, thereby increasing system redundancy.
Vehicle lifts are used on systems involving multiple levels, and may or
may not allow AGVs to ride with them.
AGV CAR PARKING
SYSTEM
RGC CAR PARKING SYSTEM

The Rail Guided Cart (RGC) is similar to an Automated Guided

Vehicle (AGV), however the RGC utilizes a simplified design strategy
that supports a robust, reliable, and cost effective solution.
A vehicle enters the system by being driven into a transfer cabin and
parked on a platform. Then a RGC picks up the platform and vehicle
and drives it into the system for storage. As more RGCs are placed in
a system, the throughput (and associated cost) is increased. However
only to the point that the number of transfer cabins, lifts, paths and
shared resources exist.
Similar to AGV systems, RGC systems
drive on a concrete floor slab,
however along small guide rails.
Since the RGC can travel in both the
forward/reverse and side to side
directions, the travel paths can be
quite flexible and able to maneuver in
tight confines.
RGC SYSTEM
SHUTTLE CAR PARKING SYSTEM

Shuttle Parking is a blend of vertical lifts, and horizontal shuttles that

operate together to ensure fast access in parking lots with high
capacity. They operate on multiple levels; over ground, underground or
a combination of both.
Key Advantages
• Economical - facilities efficient space utilization in basement parking
lot
• User safety and comfort oriented design
• Easy PLC type Controls
• Variation available up to 4 level
• Fully automatic operation
LIFT TYPES
PARK TYPE
• There is a greater sense of security due to the fact that patrons
do not actually walk to and from their own space.
• It is highly feasible for extremely small sites that are unable to
accommodate a conventional ramped parking structure.
• There is high parking efficiency (i.e. sf/space and cf/space).
• There is no need for driving while looking for an available space.
• Emissions are greatly brought down and reduced.
• The patrons wait for their car in a highly controlled environment.
• There are less chances for vehicle vandalism.
• There is a minimal staff requirement if it is used by known
parkers.
• It is possible that the retrieval time is lower than the combined
driving/parking/walking time in conventional ramped parking
structures.
• There is an easier facade integration since there are no ramping
floors or openings in exterior walls.Maximum Utilization of
Space.
•
• There is a greater construction cost per space (but this
may be offset by the chance for lesser land costs per
space and the system manufacturers say that the
operating and maintenance cost will be lower as compared
to a conventional ramped parking structure).
• Use of redundant systems will result in a greater cost.
• It may be a bit confusing for unfamiliar users.
• It is not recommended for high peak hour volume
facilities.
• There may be a fear of breakdown (How do I get my car
out?).
• There is an uncertain building department review and
approval process.
• It requires a maintenance contract with the
supplier.
