Land transportation in India heavily relies on railway stations,yet these stations face issues with parking due to manual methods, resulting in congestion and inefficiencies. Current approaches also face difficulties such as inadequate real-time parking allocation, a deficiency in digital payment options, and issues related to user-friendliness. To address this, a cutting-edge solution is proposed which harnesses advanced technologies like image processing, Raspberry Pi, OCR for license plate recognition, and cashless transactions. Ultrasonic sensor verify vehicle presence, OCR deciphers license plates, and historical data manages parking logistics, slot detection is done using Pickle.Travelers can conveniently access parking fees on an OLED screen, receive a QR code for exiting , simplifying payments and improving safety. The project places a strong emphasis on environmental sustainability and real-time updates. It is designed with potential for expansion and integration with other station services, offering an effective, eco-conscious parking system that can adapt to evolving transportation needs.
