A common situation that we can testify every day: fossil fuel cars occupying electric cars charge only places, and handy capped reserved places, occupied with cars without the proper authorization. This is something that plagues our society, where the values and moral are forgotten, and our duties and rights are lost in the day-to-day life. There are more and more cars moving, every day, to the city center, where the lack of available parking, together with the lack of proper public transportation creates a chaotic situation. Also, the large proliferation of electric cars, that is not accompanied by a proportional availability of electric chargers, raises issues, where these cars’ drivers are not allowed to charge their vehicles, most of the times, because they are being used as abusive parking. This dissertation has the goal to identify and propose a universal solution, with low implementation and maintenance costs, that allows a fast and unambiguous validation of authorization of a user, for parking in a reserved parking space.
