1. IEEE PROJECTS 2012-Vertical Car
Parking System for Space
Optimization
The need for parking slots in commercial areas has gone
up considerably in metros and other towns during the last few
years. The situation is only going to worsen when large number
of cars are ready to hit the roads by the near future
In order to address parking problems in residential and
commercial building spaces, we have introduce automated
Vertical car parking system
It is an automated vertical car parking system available in
modules of 20 and 40 car spaces, with 1 or 2 space per floor and
10 to 20 floors.

2. Working of the Proposed Project:
The user has to enter the floor no of where to park the car.
A Tray from that floor will come to the base and the user has
to park the car on the base. Then the system will
automatically lift the car to the specified floor.
A mechanical model is constructed of two floors for project
demonstration.
Advantages:
Space Optimization
The system occupies less than 20 percent of the conventional
parking floor area
Faster Retrieval Time

3. The design incorporates faster retrieval time to minimize the
waiting period.
Convenience
• There is no need for customers to search for parking space
or to remember location of parked vehicle.
• The access interface is simple and user-friendly. The control
software can be integrated with nearly any permit or pay
system.
• There are no damages or scratches on vehicles during
parking and retrieval.
Security
• Theft and vandalism are eliminated as no one enters the
garage area where vehicles are stored.
• Accidental damage and scratches to vehicles during parking
and retrieval are eliminated thus giving value for money.
