Picture this; you just finished a long workday and are ready to head home. You arrive at the parking garage where you parked your car for the day. You forgot to make note of what level you parked on, so you spend another 30 minutes scouring the garage to find your vehicle. For most, this situation sounds all too familiar.
Let’s face it; we’ve all been through this before. But thanks to advancements in parking technology, your days of searching for your vehicle in a sea of parked cars may be over.
Parking guidance systems with smart cameras do more than guide you to an available parking space. Now, integrations with Find-My-Car Assistance software allows us to remember where we parked in a matter of minutes.
A solution ideal for large parking facilities, smart camera-based sensors are paired with license plate recognition software that can be integrated with vehicle locator software.
When a vehicle is parked, the license plate is recorded and transmitted to a live central management system that allows customers to retrieve the location of their car by simply inputting their license plate into a parking pay station, find-my-car kiosk, or a mobile parking app. Once the license plate is entered, the location of the car is pinpointed on a digital map of the parking facility making it easy for customers to navigate to their car.
Smart parking guidance systems deliver an improved customer experience. They create seamless parking experiences from when they arrive at your facility until they leave. But it doesn’t stop there. Real-time data takes it one step further, helping operators maximize facility efficiency, take action to heighten revenue opportunities and fine-tune your day-to-day operations.
