        abstract = {In recent years, the rapid increase in the number of vehicles has created serious parking problems in urban areas. Drivers often spend a lot of time searching for available parking spaces, which leads to traffic congestion, fuel wastage, and frustration. Traditional parking systems are mostly manual and do not provide real-time information, making them inefficient and difficult to manage for large parking areas.
To solve these issues, this paper presents a smart parking system based on FPGA and IoT technology. In this system, IR sensors are used to detect whether a parking spot is occupied or free, and ultrasonic sensors are used to monitor vehicle entry and exit. The FPGA processes all sensor data simultaneously, which helps in achieving faster and more accurate results compared to conventional systems.
A servo motor is used to control the parking gate automatically, and an LCD display shows the number of available parking slots. An ESP32 module is used to send real-time data to the cloud, allowing users to check parking availability through a mobile or web application. The system is implemented and tested using a DE10 FPGA board.
The results show that the proposed system provides faster response, bet- ter accuracy, and improved efficiency, making it suitable for modern smart parking applications.},
