Tinynode’s wireless vehicle detection systems for outdoor and on-street parking are used as part of Smart parking solutions which enable motorists to locate a free parking space.  The company says there are several million parking spaces in Europe alone that could utilise the system.  The Swarco partnership means the technology can be integrated into indoor parking management systems.

“We are very proud a leader such as Swarco chose our solution”, said Pierre Castella, CEO of Tinynode. “It says a lot about the quality of our product.”

Richard Neumann, Swarco corporate communications manager, commented: “Tinynode’s plug and play approach is very efficient: installing the sensors is quick and easy and adding them to an existing system is no big deal. We now have a reliable real-time online overview about the occupancy degree of our on-street parking spaces”.
