The Santa Monica Place shopping mall in California has cameras on each stall that can help count the lot occupancy and find lost cars. Another parking company ParkMe has used statical modelling to forecast parking occupancy in Austin Texas.

Famous quotes containing the word technology:
“Our technology forces us to live mythically, but we continue to think fragmentarily, and on single, separate planes.”
—Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
“Technology is not an image of the world but a way of operating on reality. The nihilism of technology lies not only in the fact that it is the most perfect expression of the will to power ... but also in the fact that it lacks meaning.”
—Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
