NB-IoT communication, sophisticated product design, careful component selection and many years of experience results in a device that is capable of determining the parking space occupancy with an outstanding reliability of over 99% and with an average lifetime of over 5 years. Our NB-IoT smart parking sensors use radar or dual detection (magnetometer and radar) to monitor the occupancy of a parking space.

• Radar detection technology: In case of our default setting sensors make a detection every eight seconds and only communicate status change if new status is confirmed by 2 detections. 
• Dual detection technology: When there is a significant change in the magnetic field the magnetometer triggers the radar sensor, which can determine whether the parking space is vacant or occupied. 

Thanks to the NB-IoT communication, enabled by the embedded chip SIMs, there is no need for any additional network equipment to be installed.

The sensors work as stand-alone ones, meaning that they can determine the occupancy of a parking space by themselves, therefore there is no need for any central hub to process the sensor data, instead they can be managed and operated directly (based on a well-documented communication protocol that is provided alongside with the sensors), in consequence, after purchasing the sensors there is no service fee associated with operation.

The sensors have a double cylinder construction, meaning that there is an external cylinder that is flush mounted into the road surface, and there is an internal sealed cylinder containing electronics, antenna and battery, which gets placed into the external one, therefore the sensor is easily exchangeable (for those with the right expertise it takes only 30 seconds) in case of any malfunction.
