The core of the solution is the SP Park sensor, powered by microwave (MW) radar technology. Unlike magnetic or ultrasonic sensors, the radar unfailingly detects a vehicle’s presence even under layers of snow, ice, or dirt, while ignoring metallic debris and electromagnetic noise. The sensor is mounted directly onto or flush into the surface in minutes. There is no need to trench asphalt for cabling—the system is entirely autonomous.
Data is transmitted via the secure LoRaWAN protocol, which easily penetrates the concrete floors of multi-level parking structures. A single sensor runs on its built-in battery for up to 7 years without maintenance. This allows for the rapid digitization of both existing indoor garages and massive outdoor lots, turning "blind zones" into a fully monitored environment.
In SunPeak SmartCloud, data from every radar is transformed into a "living" map of the parking space. The system automatically streams this information to large LED displays at the entrance and key navigation points. Drivers see more than just a count of available spots—they get a clear route to the nearest open zone. This cuts search time by 40%, reduces exhaust buildup within the garage, and prevents chaotic vehicle movement inside the facility.
Dispatchers gain a powerful real-time analytics tool. Monitors display detailed statistics for every zone: occupancy turnover, average stay duration, and parking violation incidents. This enables efficient load management, identifies "abandoned" vehicles, and optimizes revenue through precise data on the demand for every single parking spot.
