Urbiotica expands its range of parking spot detection sensors with the launch of U-Spot IoT for surface installation, a new version of the successful U-Spot M2M and 3.0 parking sensor, which maintains the same reliability and accuracy with a faster and simpler installation.
With this innovation, Urbiotica responds to market needs and opens new opportunities for integrators and administrations, allowing the implementation of plaza detection systems in projects where, until now, the installation of buried sensors was not viable or competitive.
📌 What changes?
U-Spot Surface offers the same technology and reliability as our underground sensor but with an optimized casing for surface installation. This solution provides:
✔ Lower installation cost: Quick installation with no major technical requirements, optimizing time and resources.
✔ Greater flexibility: Can be installed in various environments without the need for drilling.
✔ More project opportunities: Access to tenders and sectors where the installation of underground sensors was previously a limiting factor.
🛠 Fast installation adapted to every need
This new feature of U-Spot VISIO is designed to address various challenges in parking management in non-standard areas. The U-Spot Surface has been designed to adapt to different environments and installation requirements:
🔹 With screws: Urbiotica’s standard method, providing maximum stability and resistance to vandalism.
🔹 With adhesive: An ideal option for environments where drilling is not allowed, enabling installation without affecting the existing surface.
💡 When should you choose U-Spot Surface?
The surface version is the best option for environments where a faster and more cost-effective installation is required without compromising accuracy.
✅ Indoor and off-street parking lots, where an underground installation may be more expensive or unnecessary, or when the goal is to install alternatives to wired systems to eliminate electrical dependencies and reduce maintenance costs.
✅ Rooftops and modular structures, where drilling or ground modifications are not possible.
✅ Projects with installation cost restrictions, making parking space detection viable in more locations.
On the other hand, the underground version remains the best option for:
✔ Areas with a high risk of vandalism.
✔ Public spaces with specific regulations regarding surface elements.
✔ Countries with frequent snowfall, where the sensor is protected from damage caused by snowplows.
🌟 A step forward in parking digitalization
The launch of U-Spot IoT Surface reinforces Urbiotica’s commitment to innovation and continuous improvement in parking and mobility management. With this new version, we expand implementation possibilities and make the deployment of parking guidance systems easier in more environments.
