On The Way To Future
The HawkEye architecture incorporates

several technologies like image processing for determining real time slot occupancy using lowcost IPCameras, and for easy deployment and cost savings, wired and wireless cameras or wired/wireless sensors are used. The platform's USP is its proprietary technique for estimating parking occupancy using a low-cost camera, where a single camera can analyze the image of many cars parked in parking spaces. While its traditional parking system tracks vehicles with expensive cameras for Number Plate Recognition (NPR), HawkEye Platform, on the other hand, uses low cost cameras to convert images to text using its proprietary algorithms. Highlighting his future plans, Jayant Deo, JAAN COO, quotes, "Our Roadmap consists of long term plans, which would be considered on both Technology and Sales & Marketing front. On the Technology side, as per the current situation of COVID-19, we are planning to add features, assisting both parking operators and consumers. This includes, face with mask recognition, vehicle color and make & model determination and the use of drones, in place of fixed cameras. On the market expansion side, we are majorly focusing on Smart City projects and Pay & Park segments, which requires greater attention as per the increased parking concern across the globe. Working with numerous hospitals and multi speciality clinics, it will be a good idea to include Smart valet as a New automated feature in Smart Parking Application, because Smart Valet is a necessity for many parking provi ders/operators/customers."
