332 Fastprk sensors installed in the multi-storey car park of the Dolphin Mall in Miami, FL, USA

These sensors, installed in the new multi-storey car park of the well-known Dolphin Mall, send continuous information to 2 gateways, which are connected to the Internet for real-time data transmission.

The project was completed in partnership with Smart Living Projects.

Dolphin Mall is Miami-Dade County's largest retail shopping center. Its more than 240 stores, every day attract thousands of shoppers every day and all of them need to park their cars. At peak hours, queues of cars build up as they compete to find a parking space.

Thanks to the Fastprk solution, real-time data has become available to the facilities management teams of the mall to analyze, optimize and manage the parking spaces available. The information is also provided to shoppers through electronic signage, so they can clearly see where empty parking spaces are available.

This deployment consists of 332 surface-mounted sensors. The Fastprk solutions includes magnetic sensors that accurately detect the presence of vehicles. It only takes 8 minutes to install a sensor using standard tools and glue.
