Aim
The aim of the project is to Build a system to assist drivers in parking using ultrasonic sensors
Problem statement
Design an ultrasonic parking assistant system that aids drivers in parking by providing real-time distance information between their vehicle and obstacles. The system should use ultrasonic sensors to accurately measure distances and provide audio or visual cues to assist drivers in parking safely. Consider challenges such as sensor placement, interference, and user interface design to create an effective and user-friendly solution. Additionally, explore the integration of features like multiple sensor zones for comprehensive coverage and adaptability to different vehicle sizes for a versatile ultrasonic parking assistant.
Material used
Input: Ultrasonic Sensor
Brain: TinkerSpace Brain Board

Battery: 5V Lithium-ion rechargeable battery
Component description
Ultrasonic Sensor
The function of the ultrasonic Sensor is to detect the vehicle
Buzzer
Buzzer is used to make sound while there is less distance from sensor to object.
RGB LED
RGB LED is used to indicate the driver to park the car
TinkerSpace Brain Board
TinkerSpace board acts as brain of this project, its function is to monitor ultrasonic sensor and control the Buzzer and RGB LED
Battery
5V Lithium-Ion battery is used to power-up this project
Working description
Case 1: When the Ultrasonic Distance is less than 20cm, the brain board sends the signal to turn on RGB LED to RED and Buzzer to 100%.
Case 2: When the Ultrasonic Distance is 20cm to 40cm, the brain board sends the signal to turn on RGB LED to YELLOW and Buzzer to 50%.
Case 3: When the Ultrasonic Distance is more than 40cm, the brain board sends the signal to turn on RGB LED to GREEN and Buzzer to 0%.
