Automated parking systems aim to maximize available parking space by compactly storing multiple vehicles. There are several types of automated parking systems including stacker, puzzle, and lift-based designs. Key advantages are increased security, reduced space and construction needs, and higher parking efficiency. However, automated systems also have higher initial costs. Regulatory requirements address fire safety, structural integrity, and ensuring emergency vehicle access. Overall, automated parking systems can significantly boost parking capacity in limited spaces.

The automated car parking system is an idea whose time has come!
Across Indian cities and around the world, urban planners and real estate developers are increasingly turning to automated parking systems to provide more parking spaces in limited land.
While we may think automated parking systems are a modern phenomenon - it is in fact, a fairly old invention.
As urban and semi-urban centres suffer from a severe shortage of parking space compounded by sky-rocketing land prices, multilevel car parking systems are the only solution.
In large car parks, it's not always easy to find an unoccupied spot, and it takes time to park and retrieve vehicles.
Moreover, in busy towns and cities, management of parking lots poses a serious challenge.
Suitable manpower to guard, guide and manage the system is not only hard to find, but expensive.
Automatic car parking systems can counter this problem, making daily life so much easier.
Tower parking systems are the most revolutionary answer to the parking problems caused by rapid urbanization and population growth.
Studies from the experts of infrastructure development wings in developed countries have suggested tower parking as the most effective solution for the de-congestion of densely populated cities.
Tower car parking systems bring in a plethora of advantages like optimal utilization of space, lower maintenance and operational costs, centralized operation and management, computerized tracking of cars, lower construction costs for builders by saving height and depth and increased comfort for drivers.
The layout of the system is more compact, which ensures better usage of parking areas. No manual intervention means lesser breakdowns and thereby, hassle-free parking.
As India's towns and cities get more crowded and congested; as the number of vehicles grows exponentially while available parking space struggles to keep pace – weare faced with an urban crisis. Road spaces get obstructed, flow of traffic gets hampered, probability of accidents increases. Simultaneously,drivers end up wasting time, energy and fuel; pollution levels rise.
Multilevel car parking provides a feasible and effective solution.

It also leads to a waste of time, energy and fuel leading to a rise in pollution as well.
Multilevel Car Parking provides a feasible and productive solution.
What are Multilevel Parking Systems?
Multilevel car parking systems are manual or automatic facilities that make use of vertical rather than horizontal space for the parking of vehicles. These systems can house multiple cars on every level thus enabling optimum utilization of precious space.
Research suggests that a commuter in Delhi spends over 80 hours every year looking for parking space. All of us who live in India's cities face this problem on a daily basis.
Even as population and number of vehicles has grown exponentially in urban centres, parking space has remained constant or even reduced.
With land being limited and expensive, the demand for parking space is an almost unbearable burden.

It also leads to a waste of time, energy and fuel leading to a rise in pollution as well.
The impact of a multilevel parking system on the environment, including the potential for reduced carbon emissions from fewer cars on the road cannot be undermined. Multilevel car parking solutions are a godsend for commercial areas of cities
The design and functionality of diverse types of multilevel parking systems, including automated parking systems are important. The cost-effectiveness of a multilevel parking system compared to other options, such as surface parking or a standalone parking garage is evident. The convenience and accessibility of a multilevel parking system for customers and employees to park their vehicles plays a significant role in urban planning
Automated car parking systems is a trend that's here to stay. Across the world, real estate developers and municipal agencies have come to realise that scarcity of parking space is a very real problem that requires urgent consideration.
The automatic car parking system is one of the best innovations of our times.
It is a multi-level parking system in which cars are parked vertically, thereby using less ground space.
The automatic car parking system typically has horizontal pallets or carts in each level and a vertical lift that carries the cars from the drive level to and from the different floors for parking and retrieving.
The driver is removed from the parking process. The car is driven to an entry point where the driver and passengers exit the car. It is then automatically transported to its allotted space.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. INTRODUCTION
AUTOMATED PARKING SYSTEM2
The growing population of India has created many problems - one of
the challenging ones being car parking which we confront almost
every day.
Automated Car Parking is a method of automatically parking and
retrieving cars that typically use a system of pallets and lifts. The
intention is to compact more cars in the same space, reduce the
space needed to park the same number of cars. Automated car
parks can be situated above or below ground or a combination of
both.
They serve advantages like safety, saving of space, time and fuel
(since one does not have to drive around for locating space) but also
need to have an extra and a very detailed assessment of the parking
required, space availability and traffic flow.
These can be further categorized into fully automatic or semi-
automatic systems.
3. ADVANTAGES OF AUTOMATED PARKING
AUTOMATED PARKING SYSTEM3
Multi-level parking systems for sometime have provided relief since they
come with a number of advantages –
The parked cars and their contents are more secure since there is no public
access to parked cars
Only minimal ventilation and lighting systems are needed.
Lower maintenance and operational cost.
Minor parking lot damage such as scrapes and dents are eliminated.
More parking in less space.
Eliminating the need for ramps, aisles, passenger lifts & stairs.
Comfortable for the drivers & cars are more secured.
Cost saving for builders by saving height or depth.
Lower ceiling requirements
Dense depth-to-depth and bumper-to-bumper parking is possible.
4. HISTORY
Automated parking systems first appeared in Europe as early as the
1900’s and in the North America in the 1920’s. The need for
automated parking systems then is the same as it is now: maximize
the value of available land by condensing parking.
The 1950’s saw the peak of the industry in North America with a
number of high profile systems built but demand in Japan, Korea and
parts of Europe.
The technology has been around for a long time.
Widely used in the other parts of the Country and the World.

Systems (North America)
5. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AUTOMATIC AND
TRADITIONAL PARKING SYSTEM
There is a greater sense of security due to the fact that patrons do
not actually walk to and from their own space.
There is high parking efficiency .
There is no need for driving while looking for an available space.
The patrons wait for their car in a highly controlled environment.
There are less chances for vehicle vandalism.
There is a minimal staff requirement if it is used by known parkers.
There is an easier facade integration since there are no ramping
floors or openings in exterior walls.
AUTOMATIC PARKING SYSTEM:
ADVANTAGES:
6. DISADVANTAGES:
There is a greater construction cost per space (but this may be
offset by the chance for lesser land costs per space and the system
manufacturers say that the operating and maintenance cost will be
lower as compared to a conventional ramped parking structure).
Use of redundant systems will result in a greater cost.
It may be a bit confusing for unfamiliar users.
It is not recommended for high peak hour volume facilities.
There may be a fear of breakdown (How do I get my car out?).
There is an uncertain building department review and approval
process.
It requires a maintenance contract with the supplier.
7. Ease of maintenance.
Very faster communication.
No wastage of time.
Require less manpower.
Loss of driving-related jobs.
Loss of privacy.
Drivers being inexperienced if situations arose requiring
manual driving.
Software reliability & Liability for damage.
Self-driving cars could potentially be loaded with explosives
and used as bombs.
TRADITIONAL PARKING SYSTEM:
ADVANTAGES:
DISADVANTAGES:
8. FULLY AUTOMATIC PARKING SYSTEM:
Fully automated parking systems operate much like robotic valet
parking.
The driver drives the car into an APS entry (transfer) area.
The driver and all passengers exit the car.
The driver uses an automated terminal nearby for payment and
receipt of a ticket.
More sophisticated fully automated APS will obtain the
dimensions of
Carson entry in order to place them in the smallest available
parking space.
The driver retrieves a car by inserting
a
ticket or code into an automated
terminal.
The APS lifts the car from its parking
space and delivers it to an exit area.
9. SEMI-AUTOMATIC PARKING SYSTEM
Semi-automated APS also use a mechanical system of some
type to move a car to its parking space, however putting the
car into and/or the operation of the system requires some
action by an attendant or the driver.
The choice between fully and semi-automated APS is often a
matter of space and cost, however large capacity (> 100 cars)
tend to be fully automated.
