Abstract

Abstract—When a driver enters a certain parking area, the driver takes a long time to find an available parking space. Design and implementation of a system for image based automatic detection and counting of vehicles has been developed to solve the problem that the drivers faced with low cost. This system uses image processing techniques. First, the type of vehicle that enters the lot is detected and it is directed to their corresponding location. Also this system uses the image of parking lot to count the number of vehicles that are present in the parking area and displays it at the entrance. This system is implemented using MATlab simulation with Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and it will give information about the location of available parking space and the number of available parking space. This information will be very beneficial to all the drivers when entering a parking lot.
