RSSThe problem of finding a parking space in the most important parking facility in the German city of Dillingen has been solved, thanks to a wireless parking sensor system developed by Dutch technology company 3838 Nedap.

The car park, with both private and public spaces, is located in an inner courtyard and not visible from the main access road, resulting in visitors continuously searching for a free parking space.

Installed by the company’s partner 7412 Cur-Systemtechnik, Nedap’s Sensit real-time guidance system detects vehicle occupancy at every parking space.  The system has been installed along the street to inform motorists of the number of parking spaces available. Real-time parking information can be used to guide traffic effectively, to improve the utilisation of parking capacity and to manage parking enforcement more efficiently.
