Seems a little outdated compared to this... Hikvision Parking

I am just waiting for someone to re-purpose an app like this into something nefarious. Like try to find a parking lot that has this system and look for the areas in the parking lot were the system is not working correctly. Presto you just found a gap in the security cameras and know which cars to break into.

John, I apologize for not going into more detail. I don't think this app will be practical unless it's fully integrated with google maps, apple maps and other map apps that would push recommendations automatically to your phone for parking. Lets say I'm going to NYC and search bobby flays restaurant in yelp and ask for directions, yelp then asks if I need parking and it finds me a space when I pull up. Look how uber and Lyft are integrated with Apple maps now. It's seamless.
There are a couple of companies other than hikvision working on this. I see these types of systems being more popular in big cities like NYC where parking is tight and in garages not big lots.
Both systems are likely to serve a purpose down the road, each in different markets, the app in big mall parking and robots in luxury garages. Both will require good camera systems.

Congratulations Ovidiu! Well done.

I can see value if this system automatically updated the VACANCY / NO VACANCY sign at the parking lot's entry.
I don't want to see another reason for smart phone operators to be interrupted by driving :)
