We know what drives you! And it certainly isn’t the prospect of looking for parking or being stuck in
traffic. That’s why Siemens developed a sensor-based parking system to help drivers find a parking
spot quickly and effortlessly. Featuring Intel technology, the tool reduces city traffic, as well as
pollution and parking violations.
