Although there are several parking lot management systems in use today, we felt that the process of finding an available space could be made much easier.
Our goal was to create a system that could save people’s time and sanity by addressing the shortcomings found in currently implemented parking lot management systems.

Purpose:
Our mentor's current research topic relates to integrating automated IoT drones with human interaction. His desire is to create automated drones that assist in factory work conditions. Our idea is to maintain this concept of human-drone interaction but instead in housing conditions. A simple use case we thought of was a floating lamp that would follow the user at night.
The goal of our project is to create a spherical persistence of vision display, capable of rotating at a high speed and illuminating a strip of LEDs to draw images for the user. A microcontroller will be mounted on the rotating arm, which we will communicate with wirelessly to control the connected LEDs.
