Digital control technologies: Space Parking Ultrasonic sensor

2020: Creation of information Space Parking complex

The Digital Control Technologies company conducts works on creation of information complex which allows to define existence of empty seats on the covered parking. It became known on June 25, 2020. Data are output to an information display. The area of the parking can be big and all not to be browsed, but the number of parking spaces and a status of each parking space is visible to the driver at entrance. Thanks to it it has an opportunity to make the decision - where it is worth going and where to park. The project received the name "Space Parking"

Are a part of a complex:

1. The wireless sensor which to be put over each parking space,
2. The digital controller of a parking zone collects information from sensors,
3. The computer program for management of the parking.

The ultrasonic sensor generates a wave with a frequency of 40 kHz towards an object. It is possible to determine distance from the sensor to an obstacle by time which passed from the moment of sending an impulse before acceptance of a reflected signal. The distance from a sensor suspension point to the surface of the parking can make up to 5 meters. After installation the sensor automatically makes calibration on the blank parking space. The sensor can work as independently, and as a part of group (zoning of the parking). The group of ultrasonic sensors is controlled the controller which mediates between the computer and sensors. Use of the controller allows to accelerate exchange with the computer program that is relevant for big parkings. The controller cyclically polls sensors of the zone, marks non-working sensors, obtains information on the free / taken places on the parking from workers and also at emergence of the new sensor includes it in the zone.

The software is developed for configuring of sensors and controllers. The Space Parking complex was developed for the management program for parkings. Integration of a device into other projects is possible. The complex completely is own development of the company.
