RectArea_Parkospace

🅿 Parkospace — AI Parking Space Detector

A lightweight MobileNetV2-based keypoint detector that automatically detects the 4 corners of a parking space rectangle in a photo, estimates real-world dimensions, and calculates rental pricing. Built for the Parkospace platform.

---

🧠 What It Does

• 📸 Takes a photo of a parking space
• 🔍 Detects the 4 corner keypoints of the space (TL, TR, BR, BL)
• 📐 Estimates real-world dimensions in metres (using 2-photo perspective method)
• 💰 Calculates Hourly / Daily / Monthly pricing automatically
• ✏️ Lets users interactively adjust the rectangle (resize + move)

🚀 Quickstart

Option 1 — Google Colab (Recommended)

Open parkospace_colab.ipynb in Google Colab, switch to T4 GPU, and run all cells top to bottom. No setup needed.

Option 2 — Run Locally

1. Clone and install

git clone https://github.com/your-username/parkospace-detector
cd parkospace-detector
pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Generate synthetic training data

python generate_data.py --out data --n 5000

3. Train the model

python train.py --data data --epochs 30 --batch 32

4. Run inference on an image

python infer.py --checkpoint checkpoints/best.pt --img parking.jpg

5. Dual-image dimension estimation

python infer.py \
  --checkpoint checkpoints/best.pt \
  --length_img  photo_from_length_side.jpg \
  --breadth_img photo_from_breadth_side.jpg

🐍 Python API

from model import ParkingSpaceDetector
from infer  import load_model, detect, calculate_pricing

# Load trained model
model = load_model("checkpoints/best.pt")

# Detect parking space corners
import cv2
img = cv2.imread("parking.jpg")
det = detect(model, img)

print("Corners (pixels):", det.corners_px)
# [[x0,y0], [x1,y1], [x2,y2], [x3,y3]]  →  TL, TR, BR, BL

# Calculate pricing
pricing = calculate_pricing(area_m2=15.0)
print(pricing)
# {
#   "hourly_inr":  50.0,
#   "daily_inr":   300.0,
#   "monthly_inr": 150.0,
#   "area_m2":     15.0
# }

📐 Dual-Image Dimension Estimation

For accurate real-world measurements without any special equipment:

1. Photo 1 — Stand at the length side, photograph across the width
2. Photo 2 — Stand at the breadth side, photograph along the length

from infer import load_model, estimate_dimensions_dual
import cv2

model      = load_model("checkpoints/best.pt")
length_img  = cv2.imread("from_length_side.jpg")
breadth_img = cv2.imread("from_breadth_side.jpg")

dims = estimate_dimensions_dual(model, length_img, breadth_img)
# {
#   "length_m":  5.2,
#   "breadth_m": 2.6,
#   "area_m2":   13.52
# }

💰 Pricing Logic

All prices are configurable — pass custom values to calculate_pricing().

🔮 Roadmap

• Fine-tune on real parking space photos
• Add support for non-rectangular spaces (polygons)
• ONNX export for browser-based inference
• Integrate with Parkospace owner dashboard
• Occupied / available space detection
• Multi-space detection in a single image
