Abstract
As of recent practice, the majority of current parking systems are still implementing the same traditional method of giving entry to parking visitors which is by giving out a physical ticket. This has caused several problems for mall visitors. Therefore, it is planned to propose a system that can eliminate the problems and provide further improvement to the current systems. Our proposed system named PARKEY is a Ticket-less Parking System that has been designed to provide a new method of parking entry and exiting while implementing new features in the parking system. The objective of the project is to provide a working ticket-less entry and exit system by using a virtual ticket with the help of image recognition technology. With the proposed system being developed, it will help to solve problems that are present in the current systems and give an implementation of a parking system that is up to par with the current standard of technology. Before the system was developed, interviews, observation, and requirement reuse were used as methods to elicit requirements that will provide useful insights for the development of the system. Before the system was developed, interviews, observation, and requirement reuse were used as methods to elicit requirements that will provide useful insights for the development of the system. This includes providing questions to users, making observations to current systems deployed, and studying existing systems ranging from older systems to newer, similar systems. Using the stated elicitation techniques, some findings were gathered and are beneficial to the development of the system. The use of observation to current parking systems helps provides data that will be used as a benchmark for the proposed system to identify how quick the proposed system reaction time should be to provide an on-par performance with the current systems. Interviews with several potential users were done to gather information on their experience from the current parking systems and their opinions on what can be improved and expectations of the proposed system. Other than that, studying the currently available systems gives a better understanding of the drawbacks and limitations of the current systems and provides some functionalities from those systems that can be combined and implemented to benefit the proposed system's improvement during development. The developed proposed system applies a combined usage of a web application, license plate recognition technology, and an e-wallet based payment system to tackle current parking system problems. � Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
