Electronic Valet Parking Kiosk System and Method

摘要

An electronic valet parking system includes a plurality of portable wireless transmitters each operable to generate and transmit a uniquely-coded wireless signal. The system further includes a transceiver operable to receive the uniquely-coded wireless signal from each of the plurality of portable wireless transmitters, and a microcontroller circuit operable to communicate with the transceiver, receive an indication of the uniquely-coded wireless signal received by the transceiver, and identify a customer key associated with the uniquely-coded wireless signal. A plurality of key storage racks each in communication with the microcontroller circuit and each having a plurality of key holders and associated respective key indicators are provided. Each key holder corresponds to a unique transmitter identifier. A key visual indicator associated with a key holder corresponding to the unique transmitter identifier is activated, and a rack visual indicator of the corresponding key storage rack is also activated.
