The process of finding a vacant space in a parking lot has become very tedious nowadays. The proposed method eases the situation and helps in finding the vacant spots. The method is implemented using Ultrasonic sensors, microcontrollers and LCD displays. The modules incorporated detect the unoccupied positions and display the information to the end users. A prototype has been devised and the results prove that the proposed method is 97.5% accurate. The deployment of this method will reduce the car idling time in parking lots in search of vacant slots and avoids the frustration of end users.
