This is the project where we use vrep to simulate a parking model and make the car park in different orientations ( namely Parallel , Perpendicular and Angled(usually 45 degrees) )
We, in this project, have aimed in bringing automation in cars which is already in a developing stage all around the world (Great example is of Tesla's Self Driving Cars). Although there are many aspects related to automation but we have focused on achieving a single task (automatic parking) by integration of sensors and actuators controlled by microcontroller and strategy planning/coding and for this we have used Naked Ackermann Model which is already available in the software
We have used Coppeliasim Software for our project

How to install these softwares
- Click on the above "Coppeliasim edu latest version" that will redirect you to the downloads section of coppeliasim website and download the edu version of it.
- Click on the above "Git" that will redirect you to the website .
- Click on the above "Github for making Repositories" that will redirect you to the website of github where you to first register yourself and then make repositories
If you want to take these files from our repository to your system , Clone our Repo by writing this code given below in your git bash
git clone https://github.com/kart1802/Automated-Parking-System.git Now in coppeliasim there are main scripts and child scripts, we use child scripts which needs Lua language
You can see after the name there is document type icon which is a script
When you double click and open it you will see the code
After running the simulation if you get any error or you want to print something, you will see that in the given box below
The car detects the parking space checks if the condition is satisfied then it performs the parking function.The car parks itself without colliding with other cars or the wall with the help of sensors in the front and back as well as the sides
PERPENDICULAR PARKING :
The perpendicular parking takes only one 90° arc
PARALLEL PARKING :
The parallel parking takes two arcs as explained above for parking
EXIT FROM PARKING LOT :
- From Parallel --->
- From Perpendicular --->

-
Created a desired parking model
-
Completed with parallel as well as perpendicular parking
-
Completed the removal of a car from parking space as well
-
Need to use obstacle avoidance as well
-
Our parked car model is simply made of primitive figures and our code works based on those model, so we have try it on real car models as well

Self driving car
As we have completed the automated parking sytem of cars , so in future we wish to work on self driving car . We deeply want to study about how cars run on road without any manual input . We are desperate to know , what mechanism goes behind it or how all things works ? It is good thing on which we can make project . By this project we will be unable to know about how self driving cars works . By this project we can understand Tesla cars in detail . In this project we can also deeply understand about mechatronics . We also can understand how AI work in self driving cars . By this project we will also understand simulation software deeply . We are also curious about knowing how car overcome every barrier on road without any manual input . By this project we would also learn about mechanics in cars , how engine works . We will also get to know how machine can control speed automatically . So in brief , self driving car is really a good project to do as it consists of some wonderful and conceptual things .
- The removal of car from parallel parking space may turn the car in the direction of parked cars thus raising the chances of a crash to avoid that change value of Steering angle but to move the car in straight line you have to change the condition as for time being we have written the code that works mostly on numbers.
- Also if some sensor has nil value of distance then lua will give an error regarding that , so then added condition like if distance value is not nil something like that and also not use print statements which also give errors
