Meter Eye uses a patented infrared detection System (VDS) to monitor the availability of parking spaces within parking facilities. It provides updates to a sign guidance system that directs motorists to the nearest vacant parking bay to them It monitors their stay and signals to the control centre if the parked car has exceeded its allotted time.
The VDS units are typically mounted on the ceiling directly above the parking bay or on the floor. Each parking bay is constantly monitored by the VDS units which in turn updates the sign guidance system as to each parking bays status – vacant or occupied.
Once a parking level or parking zone is entered, a sign displays the number of parking bays available at that location. This is followed by another series of signs indicating the direction and number right down to the aisle number.
Congestion caused by cars slowing down or stopping to
search for vacant parking bays is dramatically reduced.
