A research group from the Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona, Spain, led by Jose Lopez Vicario and Antoni Morell, took part in the development of a new system which locates unoccupied car park spaces and guides users to the nearest one. The new network of sensors for the management of public car parks and locations, which researchers have named XALOC, was developed by a consortium formed by the firm WorldSensing and the Centre for Telecommunications Technology of Catalonia.
