Smart Parking Solution

Overview

A smart parking system aims to enhance comfort and safety while parking the vehicle in a constrained space. Vehicles with onboard sensors like ultrasonic sensors, cameras, etc., are primarily used for assisted and autonomous parking. However, there is a need for a software solution with sensor fusion capability to utilize the onboard sensors and interact with smart parking infrastructure in real-time; to monitor available parking slots and assist in parking without causing any discomfort to the driver and damage to the vehicle.

This whitepaper proposes an architecture for a smart parking solution that handles parking challenges with four approaches. Tata Elxsi’s Smart parking solution provides an architecture that can be used by OEMs and Tier1s looking for quick-to-deploy market solutions that support scalable architecture that can be customized for different parking environments and geographic regions.

Read this whitepaper to understand

• How Tata Elxsi’s scalable parking solution can be customized to be deployed based on parking environment, parking infrastructure support, and with existing sensor configuration on the vehicle.
• How this parking solution can be made applicable to different geographic markets, and SAE levels of autonomy L0-L5.
• Sensor configurations appropriate for all four smart parking approaches – Park By Memory, Parking Slot Detection, Infrastructure based Parking and Autonomous Valet Parking.
• Key factors for different parking approaches that can be considered for vehicle features and productization strategies.
