Car Detection Systems
LUMIGUIDE’s car detection systems use ultrasonic technology or cameras to detect cars in indoor and outdoor car parks.
Indoor Car Detection
In indoor parking garages, either ultrasonic sensors or camera sensors can be used.
With ultrasonic sensors, the measurement relies on the distance between the signal sent and signal received on the sensor. The signal transmitter from the ultrasonic technology is connected to LED-lights, which indicate whether space is available (green) or occupied (red). Other colours are also possible, e.g. blue to indicate handicapped parking spaces.
Camera sensors can see multiple cars at the same time, and are also connected to LED-lights to indicate availability. The camera sensors can have ANPR technology, making it possible to link it to payment systems and offer ‘find-your-car’ services.
All sensors can be integrated into a linear lighting system: contact us to learn more about this option. Additionally, LED-matrix signs (re)direct your visitors to other levels, showing the number of available spaces or information on maintenance work/closure of a specific level.
