Description

Instant parking space determination system

The present invention relates to a parking space determination system, in particular to an instant parking space determination system that confirms the parking status of the parking space through images.

Everyone who drives has had the following experience: After parking in a parking lot with a large amount of traffic and parking management instructions (such as a parking lot attached to a hypermarket), when you see a vacancy light on, you will always take a shortcut and drive there as soon as possible. to use this parking space. However, many unpleasant experiences tell us that other cars will park in the empty parking space faster than us, and the space light will go off before our eyes. At this time, car owners who need to park can only drive around and try their luck to find a parking space. In this case, the function of the parking management indicating device fails to achieve the preset purpose of ensuring that vehicles have their own space.

A similar parking experience is also replicated in remote reserved parking. Some parking lots have Internet-connected parking spaces so that car owners can reserve parking within a certain period of time, or decide whether to park in a parking lot based on the remaining number of parking spaces (such as this one provided by the Taipei City Parking Information Guidance System). It is a service of Hao Parking APP). It may be because there are many vehicles that also want to park in the parking lot on the way to the parking lot, or there may be an error in parking management. After making a reservation for parking or parking in a parking lot with parking spaces, the car owner may be surprised. There are no parking spaces, so you need to wait patiently in line. This kind of emotional gap will make car owners angry.

The aforementioned two situations of insufficient parking occur due to the delayed notification of current parking space information. In other words, the real-time parking space information of the parking lot always changes with time, but the car owner The information obtained will always stay at the time when it was first notified. Although many parking lots have gradually become intelligent and rely more on data management to replace traditional manual management, the parking-related information services provided by parking lots have always lagged behind actual needs. How to solve the problem of real-time confirmation between the dynamic status of parking spaces and car owners so that car owners can park faster and more efficiently is a challenge for related industries.

In order to make the description of the disclosure more detailed and complete, an illustrative description is provided below for implementation modes and specific examples of the present invention.

Please see FIG. 1 , which illustrates the architecture of a real-time parking space determination system (hereinafter referred to as the system) according to an embodiment of the present invention. This system includes several image capture devices (in this embodiment, two image capture devices are used as an example for illustration, namely a first image capture device 310 and a second image capture device 320. Actual In practice, the number of image capture devices is not limited to 2, but may be more) and a management server 10. The types, functions of these technical components, and the operation of this system will be described in detail below.

Please see Figure 2, which shows a bird's-eye view of a parking lot where this system is applied. The aforementioned image capture device is installed in the parking lot. In Figure 2, the parking lot has 10 parking spaces, No. 3 to No. 5 Parking spaces No. 8 to 10 are open for temporary parking by outside vehicles, and the words "Temporary Parking" are painted on the parking spaces. Other parking spaces may have long-term contracts or belong to specific owners and therefore are not open for temporary parking. According to the present invention, each image capturing device can capture an image of at least one parking space in the parking lot. As shown in FIG. 2 , the first image capturing device 310 fixedly captures the image on the left including parking spaces No. 3 to No. 5, and the range is indicated by a dotted frame. The second image capturing device 320 fixedly captures the image on the right including parking spaces No. 7 to No. 10, and its range is also indicated by a dotted frame. A real-time parking space image obtained by the first image acquisition module 310 is shown in Figure 3. In Figure 3, foreign cars are parked in parking spaces No. 3 and 5, and parking space No. 4 is empty. It should be noted that the images captured by the image capture device may still include images of parking spaces that are not for temporary parking due to the set location. However, in order to be able to take into account all open parking spaces, the images captured by all image capture devices should cover all available parking spaces, that is, parking spaces No. 3 to No. 5 and No. 8 to No. 10 All images of the bits must be captured by the first image capturing device 310 and the second image capturing device 320 . In practice, the image capture device of this system is preferably a network camera, which can transmit the captured images to the management server 10 through the network through remote control. It is also possible to use the existing coaxial cable monitor in the parking lot as the image capture device, but a relay device must be set up in the computer room to transmit the image capture at a specific time or temporarily needed to the management server 10 .

The management server 10 is the core component for running the system. The management server 10 can be signal-connected to the first image capture device 310 and the second image capture device 320 and a plurality of mobile communication devices through the network 1 . For convenience of explanation, please refer to FIG. 1 . This embodiment takes a first mobile communication device 410 and a second mobile communication device 420 as an example. The mobile communication device is a tool used by the car owner to connect to the system, and its form can be, but is not limited to, a smart phone, a tablet computer, and a smart wearable device. The management server 10 includes a network communication interface 110, an image acquisition module 210, an image demand module 220, an image transmission module 230, a parking space counting module 240 and a parking space reservation module 250. The hardware architecture of the management server 10 of this system is not much different from that of a general server, and may include a central processing unit. processor, memory, storage device (such as hard disk), input/output unit, etc. Although these hardware are not shown in Figure 1, they are architectures that those skilled in the server field should understand. In addition, one of the important hardware in the management server 10 is the network communication interface 110, which connects the management server 10 and the mobile communication device through the network 1 (which can be, but is not limited to, a mobile communication network and a fixed network). The final assembly of important software and firmware (sometimes including program software running on the operating system) can include hardware such as network cards, connection cables, and wireless communication modules. Each module of the present invention introduced below is a technical requirement of the system running by utilizing or cooperating with the above-mentioned existing management server 10 equipment. Therefore, they can be software that contains specific program code and data, and runs in at least part of the hardware architecture under the operating system (for example, the program code and related data files are stored in a storage device, in the operating system's It is temporarily stored in the memory during operation, and is dynamically called and executed by the central processor). On the other hand, the modules may also be specially designed hardware, such as application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) or external cards, to perform the functions assigned by the modules. What's more, these technical requirements can be part software and part hardware, and can be effectively integrated according to the needs of product designers.

After receiving an image acquisition instruction from the image demand module 220, the image acquisition module 210 respectively requires the first image acquisition device 310 and the second image acquisition device 320 to acquire a real-time parking space image. The image request module 220 is connected to the image acquisition module 210 via signals, receives an image acquisition request from the first mobile communication device 410 or the second mobile communication device 420 and issues the corresponding image acquisition command to obtain the real-time information. Parking space images. The image transmission module 230 is connected with the image request module 220 through signals, and transmits the real-time parking space images to the first mobile communication device 410 or the second mobile communication device 420 that issues the image acquisition request, and displays them on the mobile phone in sequence. on a screen of the communication device.

In order to have a better understanding of this, please refer to FIG. 4 , which illustrates an interface displayed on the screen 410 a of the first mobile communication device 410 . The car owner's first mobile communication device 410 is installed with a mobile application program (APP). The mobile application can be used to display information transmitted by the image transmission module 230, such as text and pictures, and input by the first mobile communication device 410. message, reply Passed to the management server 10, the aforementioned interface is launched by executing the mobile application. The second mobile communication device 420 also has the same mobile application installed. When the user (car owner) wants to park, he can launch the mobile application and see relevant information about the nearby parking lot (Yonghu Huaining Station) in the interface shown in Figure 4, such as a map of the location and photos of the nearby environment. It is used to provide him with decision-making considerations on whether to park in this parking lot. The most important thing is that he needs to know if there are any vacancies. At this time, he had two options. First, he can look at the number of available vacancies (how to obtain them will be detailed below). The "number of vacancies/total number" in Figure 4 shows that the parking lot has 5 parking spaces for external vehicles, and two of them are empty. However, it will take some time to drive to the parking lot from now, and during this time, the two parking spaces may be parked by other cars. Therefore, the best way is to keep an eye on the current status of the two parking spaces on the way to the parking lot (because the calculation of the number of vacancies may not be timely, and may also be dynamically adjusted due to the entry and exit of vehicles on site). Therefore, he can click the "View Live Photos" box to instruct the first mobile communication device 410 to send an image acquisition request to the management server 10, and the image request module 220 will issue the corresponding image acquisition instruction through the image acquisition module 210. , requiring the first image capture device 310 and the second image capture device 320 to obtain real-time parking space images of two vacant spaces. Taking FIG. 3 as an example, after the current real-time parking space image is acquired by the first image capture device 310, the image transmission module 230 transmits the real-time parking space image to the first mobile communication device 410 that issued the image acquisition request. The second image capture device 320 will also capture the corresponding real-time parking space image according to the image capture instruction. Since there are two real-time parking space images, the real-time parking space images will be displayed sequentially on the screen 410a of the first mobile communication device 410. Please see FIG. 5 , which illustrates another interface displayed on the screen 410 a of the first mobile communication device 410 . This interface completely presents the real-time parking space image from the first image capture device 310 . If the car owner wants to see the real-time parking space image from the second image capture device 320, he can move his finger across the screen 410a (a touch screen in this embodiment) to jump to the next real-time parking space image. In this way, you can confirm that the available parking spaces still exist through the real-time parking space image.

It should be noted that the metadata of each real-time parking space image obtained by the image capture device may also include an image acquisition time. The screen 410a of the first mobile communication device 410 may simultaneously display each real-time parking space image as shown in Figure 5. Real-time parking space image and the time when the image was obtained, such as 2022/10/26 15:34:04. In this way, car owners can also be sure that the real-time parking space image is real and immediate.

As mentioned above, this system can provide the number of available parking spaces for car owners' reference, and the parking space counting module 240 is the technical component that performs this function. The parking space counting module 240 is connected with the image demand module 220 and the image transmission module 230 through signals, and can identify parking spaces that are not occupied by vehicles in each real-time parking space image. This function can be used to determine whether most of the area in the parking space is occupied by an object (car). Therefore, the parking space counting module 240 can accumulate the number of all parking spaces not occupied by vehicles into an available number, and display the available number on the screen of the mobile communication device through the image transmission module 230 . As shown in Figure 4, the total number "6" remains unchanged, and the number of empty digits shows the available quantity. In addition, the parking space counting module 240 can also use each image capture device to obtain a number or a symbol that includes the parking space when the parking space in the captured real-time parking space image is not occupied by a vehicle. Image of marked parking space. Please refer to Figure 3 again. The first image capturing device 310 permanently obtains the real-time parking space image of parking spaces No. 3 to 5. When there is no vehicle parked in the parking space, the number and the words "temporary parking" will be changed. Presented on the real-time parking space image. The first image capturing device 310 can obtain the serial number and the word "Stop" through optical character recognition or image recognition technology. The purpose of this approach is to determine whether the parking space is a parking space for external vehicles. As long as you obtain a parking space with a number or the word "temporary parking", it will automatically be determined as a parking space for external vehicles.

The reserved parking space module 250 is connected to the image transmission module 230 by signal, and can receive a reserved parking request from any mobile communication device including a designated parking space and a preset time period. The preset parking request is calculated from the receipt of the reserved parking request. Mark the location of the real-time parking space image where the designated parking space is located within a waiting period, and display the marked real-time parking space image on the screen of the mobile communication device through the image transmission module 230 . An example is given below. When using Second Mobile Pass When the car owner of the communication device 420 wants to park in the parking space No. 4, he can send a parking reservation request to the parking space reservation module 250 through the second mobile communication device 420, and notify the parking space reservation module 250 that he will park in 15 minutes. Arrive at the parking lot and make a reservation to park in parking space No. 4. The aforementioned 15 minutes is the default time, and parking space No. 4 is the designated parking space. After making a reservation (receiving the reserved parking demand), assuming that the reservation time is 16:10:42 on October 26, 2022, the reserved parking space module 250 will wait for 15 minutes starting from 16:10:42. That is, the waiting period is from 16:10:42 to 16:25:42, and the position in the real-time parking space image where parking space No. 4 is located is marked. An example of marking is shown in Figure 6. Parking space No. 4 in the real-time parking space image is covered by the word "reserved". The real-time parking space images obtained by the second mobile communication device 420 during the waiting period will all show the word "reserved", so that subsequent car owners will know that there may be only one parking space left (the car owner who has reserved the car may not follow the instructions). Appointment for parking). After the waiting period, the reserved parking space module 250 no longer marks the location in the real-time parking space image where the designated parking space is located. In other words, in the real-time parking space image that is transmitted again, the parking space No. 4 may have been suspended by the vehicle, or the original reserved car owner did not park as promised, and the parking space is open to other car owners.

In this embodiment, the same hardware architecture but by changing the functions of some modules can also achieve the purpose of real-time determination of parking spaces using images. The image acquisition module 210 does not need to passively request the first image capture device 310 and the second image capture device 320 to acquire the real-time parking space image after receiving the image acquisition instruction. On the contrary, the image acquisition module 210 can actively request the image acquisition devices to acquire real-time parking space images at a specific time. The specific time can be a fixed time every day, or a time point at a fixed frequency, such as once every 5 seconds. Therefore, the image request module 220 receives the image acquisition request from the mobile communication device and issues a corresponding image acquisition command to the image acquisition module 210 to obtain the latest real-time parking information obtained by the image acquisition devices. bit image. In other words, every real-time parking space image obtained by the image capture device may not necessarily be needed by car owners with mobile communication devices. It is also possible that a real-time parking space image may be sent to multiple mobile communication devices at the same time. Apart from this, other module functions remain unchanged.

The above structure of the present invention is suitable for large parking lots. For the development of abnormal ground as a parking lot for temporary parking of external vehicles, the present invention also has other designs.

Please see FIG. 7 , which is a system architecture diagram of an instant parking space determination system (hereinafter referred to as this system) according to another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the system includes a third image capturing device 330 and a management server 50 . The function and type of the third image capturing device 330 are the same as the above-mentioned first image capturing device 310 and the second image capturing device 320, and will not be described again here. However, the difference from the image capturing device in the previous embodiment is that since there are very few parking spaces in the installed parking lot, and not all parking spaces may be open for temporary parking, the third image capturing device 330 is only It is only necessary to capture an image of at least one parking space (for temporary parking) in the parking lot. Please see Figure 8, which shows a bird's-eye view of a parking lot where this system is applied. The parking lot is located in the space formed by three adjacent buildings B, and the third image capture device 330 is installed in it to obtain the real-time parking space images of the two planned temporary parking spaces (the range is represented by the dotted box express).

The management server 50 can be signal-connected to the third image capturing device 330 and a plurality of mobile communication devices through the network 1 (in this embodiment, like the previous embodiment, the first mobile communication device 410 and the second mobile communication device are used). Device 420 is used as an example for illustration). The management server 50 includes a network communication interface 510, an image acquisition module 610, an image demand module 620, an image transmission module 630, a parking space counting module 640 and a parking space reservation module 650.

The functions of the network communication interface 510 and the network communication interface 110 are the same and will not be described again. After receiving an image acquisition instruction, the image acquisition module 610 may request the third image acquisition device 330 to acquire a real-time parking space image. The image request module 620 is connected to the image acquisition module 610 via signals, receives an image acquisition request from the first mobile communication device 410 or the second mobile communication device 420 and issues the corresponding image acquisition command to obtain the instant parking. bit image. Image transmission module 630 and image demand module 620 signal connection, the real-time parking space image obtained by the image demand module 620 can be sent to the first mobile communication device 410 or the second mobile communication device 420, and displayed on the first mobile communication device 410 or the second mobile communication device 420. on a screen for car owners’ reference. Please see FIG. 9 , which illustrates an interface displayed on the screen 410a of the first mobile communication device 410. As explained in the previous embodiment, both the first mobile communication device 410 and the second mobile communication device 420 are installed with a mobile application for displaying the information sent by the image transmission module 630, and can be used by the first mobile communication device 410 and the second mobile communication device 420, the information input is returned to the management server 50.

Compared with the previous embodiment, this embodiment is a relatively streamlined version, requiring only one image capture device to capture a small number of real-time parking space images. A fundamental difference is that car owners can only obtain a fixed parking lot image. The only difference between different times is that the parked vehicles are different. Of course, in this embodiment, the metadata of each real-time parking space image may also include an image acquisition time, and each real-time parking space image will be displayed simultaneously on the screens of the first mobile communication device 410 and the second mobile communication device 420 and the time at which the image was acquired.

The parking space counting module 640 is connected with the image demand module 620 and the image transmission module 630 through signals, and can identify the parking spaces not occupied by vehicles in each real-time parking space image, and the cumulative number of all parking spaces not occupied by vehicles is An available quantity, and the available quantity is displayed on the screens of the first mobile communication device 410 and the second mobile communication device 420 through the image transmission module 630. Similarly, the parking space counting module 640 can also use the third image capture device 330 to obtain a number or number containing the parking space when the parking space in the captured real-time parking space image is not occupied by a vehicle. A symbolic parking space image used to identify parking spaces available for temporary parking. However, due to the small number of parking spaces, parking lot operators do not need to make numbering or symbolic signs, and only need to clearly draw the boundaries of the parking spaces.

The parking space reservation module 650 is connected to the image transmission module 630 via a signal, and receives a parking reservation request including a designated parking space and a preset time period from the first mobile communication device 410 and the second mobile communication device 420. After receiving the Within a waiting period of the preset duration starting from the reserved parking demand, the location of the real-time parking space image where the designated parking space is located is marked, and the marked real-time parking space image is displayed on the image transmission module 630 on the screens of the first mobile communication device 410 and the second mobile communication device 420 . The definition and operation methods of designated parking spaces, preset time length, reserved parking requirements and waiting periods are as described in the examples in the previous embodiment, and will not be described again here. Similarly, after the waiting period, the reserved parking space module 650 no longer marks the location in the real-time parking space image where the designated parking space is located.

Similarly, in this embodiment, the same hardware architecture but by changing the functions of some modules can also achieve the purpose of determining a parking space in real time using images. The image acquisition module 610 does not need to passively require the third image acquisition device 330 to acquire the real-time parking space image after receiving the image acquisition instruction. On the contrary, the image acquisition module 610 can actively request the third image acquisition device 330 to acquire the real-time parking space image at a specific time. The definition and examples of specific times are explained above. Therefore, the image request module 620 receives the image acquisition request from the mobile communication device and issues a corresponding image acquisition command to the image acquisition module 610 to obtain the latest real-time parking space acquired by the third image acquisition device 330 image. Apart from this, other module functions remain unchanged.

Although the present invention has been disclosed in the above embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone with ordinary knowledge in the technical field can make some modifications and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, The protection scope of the present invention shall be determined by the appended patent application scope.
