Abstract
Traffic has been a prevalent issue since the introduction of automobiles, and many countries face it; one of its root causes is car parking. Improper parking of vehicles more often than not causes traffic congestion in urban areas, as it is usually parked on sidewalks that obstruct not only pedestrian walkways but also the road that vehicles use. Parking garages should be required for every vehicle owner, whether it be a motorcycle or, most importantly, an automobile.
This research paper discusses the process and methods used to develop a motion-activated garage door system with parking detection and IoT notification, with a focus on improving convenience, safety, and accessibility in homes. The design uses an ESP32 microcontroller, an ultrasonic sensor to enable the door to respond to motion, another ultrasonic sensor to detect whether a parked car is inside the garage, a buzzer for sound cues, and a servo motor.
