Business background

With the increasing demand for urban parking in China, parking problems are becoming more prominent. With the characteristics of high frequency and just need, it is one of the most frequent and important scenes in the car owner's car life. Smart parking not only improves people's travel efficiency, realizes reasonable allocation of parking space resources and improves parking lot revenue, it is also an important part of the development of smart cities and has good development prospects. It is reported that the scale of the global smart parking industry will break the $ 26 billion mark, and the compound growth rate of the market will reach about 18%.

Industry Status

Parking is just needed, and parking is a problem that needs to be solved urgently. On the one hand, there is a huge market demand gap. According to relevant data, the ratio of cars to parking spaces in large cities in China is currently about 1: 0.8, and in small and medium-sized cities is about 1: 0.5. It is conservatively estimated that the gap in China ’s parking spaces exceeds 50 million. The whole industry is facing several major problems: it is difficult to find parking spaces, it is difficult to find parking spaces in the yard, it is difficult to find cars after parking, it is difficult to pay for vehicles in queue, the access is slow, and smart parking is not "smart".

Applications

Apqi works with a domestic company focused on smart parking solutions to help solve parking difficulties, parking chaos and other phenomena, making smart parking more intelligent.

In the entire project business, considering the factors of high and low temperature, vibration, wireless transmission, cost, etc., the actual on-site application also puts forward requirements for the use of computers:

➤ Low power consumption fanless mode, can support windows / Linux system;

➤ Support WIFI / 3G / 4G, stable signal;

➤ Requires compact and small volume;

➤ Require anti-vibration, adapt to high temperature work;

Product application import

Apqi, as a service provider of intelligent special equipment in the industry, combined with the company's business requirements and application environment, through the modular product E5 to do application import. E5 adopts Atom J1900 processor, in the form of back-mounted heat dissipation, onboard 4G memory, equipped with full Netcom 4G module, to achieve rapid heat dissipation, wireless data transmission, and long-term stable operation. In this project:

➤ Using low-power J1900 processor, back-mounted heat dissipation, while ensuring the performance is satisfied, more resistant to high and low temperatures;

➤ Install 4G full Netcom module through Mini-pcie to realize remote transmission;

➤ E5's compact body is more suitable for installation in tight spaces;

➤ The masonry cutting process and all-aluminum alloy molds highlight the cost performance;

Application summary

In the smart parking industry, Apqi's embedded low-power modular product E5 has the advantages of high cost performance, long-term stable operation, long-distance wireless, etc., giving the parking real wisdom ability and enhancing the competitiveness of the industry.Smart parking, as a powerful solution for intelligent transportation, makes parking more convenient and faster, parking fees are more orderly, improves parking chaos, uncivilized and other phenomena, and contributes to urban development.
