In many cities and shopping centers, parking is a big problem. An intelligent and effective method of automating the parking system's management that uses internet of things technology to assign a parking place efficiently. We created a smart parking system project in order to prevent that issue. The user can determine the availability of a slot by using an infrared sensor to locate the parking space that is open. The project's goal is to create a sophisticated, intelligent parking system. Vehicle presence is detected in this system using infrared obstacle sensors, which are linked to an Arduino microcontroller
