Sarkar %J International Journal of Intelligent Systems and Applications %D 2012 %I MECS Publisher %X Smart Parking Systems obtain information about available parking spaces, process it and then place the car at a certain position. A prototype of the parking assistance system based on the proposed architecture was constructed here. The adopted hardware, software, and implementation solutions in this prototype construction are described in this paper. The effective circular design is introduced here having rack-pinion special mechanism which is used to lift and place the car in the certain position. The design of rack pinion mechanism is also simulated using AUTODESK INVENTOR and COMSOL software. %K Car Parking %K Multi-level %K Design %K Rack-pinion mechanism %K Simulation %U http://www.mecs-press.org/ijisa/ijisa-v4-n3/v4n3-6.html
