Belgium company EIT Digital says its MyCarLot solution will help local governments plan parking policies and provide better services. The system is currently operating in Rennes, France, and uses real-time and forecasted parking data to address special needs like disabled parking or electric vehicles.
MyCarLot is intended to help users find available parking lots in advance based on personal preferences and using predictive algorithms and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication.
Maurizio Griva, innovation activity leader, says the technology helps drivers find, book, reach and pay for parking.
Other partners in the project include DFKI (German Research Centre for Artificial Intelligence), the University of Rennes, Centro Ricerche Fiat and Santer Reply.
