This project has designed a prototype of an effective parking system in FKE, UTeM using a PIC microcontroller. The system will calculate cars entering the car parking lot and display a system to give directions to an empty space with an LCD display. The mechanism is done by lighting up the LED, green light for empty space and red light for occupied space. The sensor will detect and count the cars with the PIC18F452. The number of vacant parking lots will be shown on the LCD board. This system is suitable for underground and surface parking.
