SC Indoor

AI-Powered Indoor Parking Guidance & Vehicle Identification

Go beyond traditional parking sensors with camera-based occupancy detection, license plate recognition and vehicle location.

SC Indoor combines parking space occupancy detection, license plate recognition, parking guidance and spot video surveillance in one intelligent camera-based sensor. Connected to BirdWatch®, it gives operators real-time visibility of individual parking spaces while helping drivers find available spaces and locate their parked vehicle.

Product Configurations

One Technology. Two Parking Layouts.

SC Indoor is available in two configurations designed to provide the same core parking guidance and vehicle identification capabilities across different parking layouts.

SC Indoor ID

SC Indoor ID

For conventional parking layouts

Provides parking guidance, spot video surveillance and license plate recognition of parked vehicles in standard parking configurations.

SC Indoor ID FB

SC Indoor ID FB

For diagonal parking layouts

Designed for parking facilities with diagonal spaces, providing parking guidance, spot video surveillance and license plate recognition.

Same Intelligence. Different Parking Layout.

Benefits

More Than Occupancy Detection

SC Indoor transforms each parking space into a source of real-time operational information. By combining occupancy detection with license plate recognition and video, operators know not only whether a space is occupied, but can also gain information about the vehicle occupying it.

Real-Time Occupancy Detection

Detect whether individual parking spaces are available or occupied and continuously update parking availability in real time.

License Plate Recognition

Recognize the license plates of parked vehicles to support vehicle location, parking management and operational control.

Intelligent Parking Guidance

Guide drivers towards available parking spaces using real-time occupancy information, reducing search time and unnecessary circulation.

Find Your Car

Help drivers locate their parked vehicle using license plate information captured by SC Indoor and managed through BirdWatch®.

Spot Video Surveillance

Provide video surveillance of monitored parking spaces to improve operational visibility and support parking security.

Irregular Parking Detection

Detect vehicles incorrectly occupying two parking spaces, helping operators identify misuse and improve parking space utilization.
