New TKH technology can vary parking charges based on vehicle size

Dutch technology company TKH has developed a new technology enabling parking garage owners to charge more for vehicles which do not fit in one parking space. Cameras at the entrance recognise car registration plates and vehicle size. Parking garage owners can then choose to charge a higher rate, or direct individual vehicles to certain parking bays. Cars which fail to follow instructions, or use two parking bays, can then be charged accordingly at the exit.
