[UKPRwire, Mon Mar 03 2008] Gavazzi has introduced an innovative new system to reduce the stress and time taken to find a vacant space in covered car parks at supermarkets, shopping centres, town centres and office buildings. This intelligent system is a cost-effective solution for providing an easy and environmentally friendly car parking experience.
The Dupline® Car Park Guidance System from Carlo Gavazzi is a reliable and easy to install solution that offers car park owners the chance to provide their customers with a more efficient service. As drivers are guided to find the nearest available parking space quicker thereby reducing the volume of toxic fumes and pollution, the amount of ventilation required and operating costs are also lowered.
The system is easily installed using a 3-wire Dupline® bus and is simple to configure. A ceiling mounted ultrasonic sensor is installed in each parking space to detect if a vehicle is present. This transmits the availability of spaces to displays situated around the area with built in LEDs to indicate how many spaces there are. A green arrow shows the location and quickest route to the next available parking space. Dedicated handicapped parking spaces are shown using a blue LED and a red cross indicates that there are no spaces free within that section.
Used in larger car parks the Dupline® Car Park Guidance System can be interfaced to a PC for central monitoring, control and statistics of one or more facility, a stand alone solution that does not require a PC can be used in smaller car parks. As Dupline® is such a versatile product, it is possible to integrate other functions into this system including the monitoring of lighting, ventilation, CO levels, smoke and movement detectors.
