Current issue :


Finding parking spaces for automobiles and motorcycles is a problematic venture due to limited space and time, while the selling of parking spaces is potential lucrative endeavor. Currently, we use a ticketing system in which users get a time-stamped ticket when entering the structure and pay a time relative fee when exiting.  The transmission of these disposable tickets is a time inefficient process susceptible to error.  These tickets can easily be lost, and with the lost tickets, the entire process disoriented.  The manual payment process can also be time consuming when traffic is at a high rate. 

Our proposal :
An RFID parking system would improve this by allowing the user to interact with the parking area with an RFID card at the entrance and exit of the parking area. An RFID parking system would also allow the user to keep an account on which the system would keep track of financial transactions. This would reduce the amount of time the user must interact with the system and increase the security of the user.  A new system to allow ease of use and increased security of parking areas is needed. 

   Goals and objectives
·         To provide individuals who require a parking area with a system that is efficient and easy to use.
·         To provide individuals with a system that accounts for the length of each visit and provides them with an account on which that can pay for the visit.
·         To determine the adaptability of an RFID parking system with different situations
·         To determine the feasibility and cost effectiveness of an RFID parking system that provides efficiency and ease of use.
·         Improve security over convention RFID parking systems by adding a keypad


 Software context on demand :

.  A simple and accessible technology like Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) cards and readers could be taken advantage of in order to streamline the entry and exit process.  The cards would be tied to customer accounts to which money could be transferred using a web interface.  This new process would grant users virtually immediate entry and exit from the parking structure, while the garage owner would seamlessly receive correct payment.  The process would begin by the user requesting an account through the web interface. This web interface will need to be easy to understand and navigate. After creating an account and receiving their unique RFID card in the mail, the user could add money to their account to be used as payment in the parking garage(s) connected to the system.  As a user vehicle passes the RFID reader at a garage entrance, their card would be read in order to retrieve account information.  If the account balance was above the required minimum, the vehicle would be granted access.  When leaving the garage, the RFID reader at the exit would read the user’s RFID card and remove an appropriate amount of money from the connected account.  This process of entry and exit can be streamlined to avoid the lines associated with the current parking garage procedure.  The system would be able to count the number of vehicles in the structure at any one time, and therefore, know the amount of free parking spaces, if any existed.

Usage Scenario :
·         Administrators – these individuals oversee the parking garage and all of its aspect. They are responsible for maintaining prices, user issues such as payment problems, login issues, and general parking garage problems.
·         Users – these individuals are the ones who use the parking garage system.

Typical Use Case Scenario :
