Car parking made easier
Car parking can be an extremely frustrating experience, but it doesn’t have to be – technology already exists that can remove some frequent issues.
Anyone who has ever had the frustration of wandering around a car park pressing their key fob in the hope that their car will give away its location (which they forgot to note in the rush of leaving it) would appreciate a less time-consuming alternative.
Anyone who has driven round and round a multi storey wasting time trying to find the space that the sign at the entrance assured them existed would be grateful for a bit of guidance. At best it’s a stressful experience, at worst it results in a missed appointment or abandoned trip.

Anyone who has parked in a car park, probably in a rush to catch a train or make an appointment, will appreciate a pay by phone option (who has change these days?) but know the frustration of not being able to get a signal to use the app, as will anyone trying to pay for electric vehicle (EV) charging by app.
