I. System Positioning
Parking Lot Management System is the "smart gate post" and "parking butler" of smart parks and mixed-use complexes. Its core mission is toensure vehicles "can enter, can exit, and can park well"— Through automatic license plate recognition for seamless vehicle access, time-based billing for accurate fee collection, and parking space management with data analytics for end-to-end vehicle flow control. The system upgrades traditional manual toll collection and manual barrier lifting to "unattended operation, second-level passage, and smart operations," making it a key component of smart community and smart park development.
II. Equipment Composition and Functions
| Equipment | Core Function | Selection Key Points |
|---|---|---|
| Barrier Gate | Vehicle access gate, executing release / block actions | Straight-arm / curved-arm / barrier gate, opening and closing time ≤ 3 seconds, supports reverse-on-obstacle rebound, anti-crash protection, remote / linked control |
| License plate recognition camera | Automatically captures and recognizes license plates, serving as the system's "smart eyes" | High-definition smart camera, supports license plate recognition (blue / yellow / green / new energy plates), vehicle model recognition, and capture of unlicensed vehicles, with a recognition rate ≥99%, built-in fill light for all-weather recognition |
| Display screen | Real-time display of parking space, charging, and guidance information | Entrance and exit LED display shows license plate, remaining parking spaces, and parking fees; supports QR code payment prompts |
| Payment terminal | Executes billing and fee collection, supporting multiple payment methods | Supports WeChat / Alipay QR code payment, cash payment, ETC frictionless payment, and member stored value; supports exit / central / mobile charging modes |
III. Core Functions
Automatic vehicle recognition and passage— When a vehicle enters, the license plate recognition camera completes capture and recognition within 0.5 seconds, the barrier gate automatically lifts to release the vehicle, and registered vehicles pass through "seamlessly without sensing"; unlicensed vehicles and abnormal plates automatically prompt manual handling, delivering a smooth experience of "no stopping, no window rolling"
Timed billing management— The system automatically records vehicle entry and exit times and calculates fees automatically according to billing rules (hourly / per-entry / capped / free periods); supports WeChat and Alipay QR code payment, ETC frictionless payment, and cash payment, with real-time payment records available, eliminating "leakage and evasion"
Parking lot vehicle management— Monthly tenants, owner vehicles, visitor vehicles, and temporary vehicles are managed by category: monthly tenants receive automatic renewal reminders upon expiry, owner vehicles are automatically recognized and released, visitor vehicles are booked online and allowed limited-time access; supports blacklist interception (vehicles in arrears, abnormal vehicles), achieving "traceable sources, trackable entries and exits, and controllable status" for vehicles in the park
Parking space guidance and value-added services— Optional parking guidance screens and geomagnetic / video space detection are available, displaying real-time remaining spaces in each zone and guiding vehicles to park quickly; supports reverse car-finding queries to enhance the parking experience; parking data is automatically aggregated to provide data support for park operation decisions
IV. Solution Advantages (Based on Yunzhi Company's Practice)
Leveraging its integration capabilities in weak-current intelligent systems, Yunzhi Company can provide integrated solutions combining parking lot systems with access control, video surveillance, smart lighting, and property management platforms, delivering full-scenario smart parking services of "license plate recognition + frictionless payment + parking space guidance + energy consumption linkage". This has been implemented in large commercial and residential complex projects such as the Zixun Tianxi Smart Digital Community (covering a total area of 248 mu with a total building area of 530,000 square meters), helping parks achieve safe, efficient, and intelligent vehicle management.
