Implementación de un sistema fijo mediante el uso de la visión artificial para la detección de lugares disponibles en el estacionamiento vehicular del parque central de la ciudad de Baños.

Abstract

The main aim of this research was the creation of a stationary system using artificial vision for the detection of available parking spaces for Vehicles in the parking lot located at the central park in Baños city. Different intelligent parking systems were considered in order to study their operation. Based on the analysis of hardware and software focused on the interpretation and processing of video images, we used a 1080P wifi IP camera whose function is to collect all the visual information from the outside world and a computer which was responsible for performing all the information processing using the Python programming language. The graphical interface resulting from the detection program was shown as a video transmission on the web page "webstarts.com" with free domain, concluding that the detection system has the capacity to work correctly without being affected by the weather conditions within the specific area, demonstrating an effectiveness of 96%, fulfilling all the requirements and objectives proposed. It is recommended to extend the period of testing and data collection in environments with a greater number of parking lots and vehicular affluence to evaluate the system performance in order to find possible improvements to the system.
