Parking Sensors
Occupancy detection sensor technologies for indoor and outdoor car parks: ultrasonic, camera, infrared and magnetic.
The need
Every facility is different; a single sensor type does not perform best everywhere. Choosing the right technology directly affects revenue, operations and the parking experience.
Our approach
PARKFORTE positions each sensor technology according to facility needs: ultrasonic, camera or infrared sensors indoors; magnetic or camera-based sensors outdoors. All sensors are monitored and controlled through the parking software.
Key features
- Approximately 99.8% detection reliability with ultrasonic sensors
- Colour LED indication for free/occupied/disabled spaces (green, red, dark blue); VIP/reservation modes via RGB
- Quick, easy installation; adaptable to any facility
- Central monitoring and control via parking software
Sub-technologies and components
Ultrasonic Sensor (Indoor)
Each space is tracked by high-frequency sound-wave sensors; LED lights signal status by colour. Offers roughly 99.8% detection reliability.
Camera Sensor (Indoor)
Produces occupancy data via image processing; dual-side cameras mounted mid-aisle detect up to 6 vehicles. Generates plate, circulation and duration statistics; complements CCTV systems.
Infrared Sensor (Indoor)
IR sensors at each space detect with a direct light beam at minimum 99.5% accuracy; offering multi-colour RGB LED, Bluetooth and secure API integration.
Magnetic Sensor (Outdoor)
Tracks occupancy of on-street and open parking spaces. Wireless battery design (5-7 year life), IP67 protection, -30°C/+70°C operating range and remote calibration via cloud.
