Disclosed herein are smart locker vehicle devices and systems and methods for operating smart locker vehicle devices, and interacting with smart locker vehicle devices. In an embodiment, a system is disclosed that comprises a memory that stores computer executable components and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory, wherein the computer executable components comprise a transmission component and a locking component. In an aspect, a transmission component transmits data representing a code or identity authentication information to a set of storage compartments electrically coupled to a vehicle. In another aspect, a locking component is configured to unlock or lock one or more door associated with the set of storage compartments based on the transmitted data.

An intelligent stereo garage system based on Internet+ and a vehicle parking and pick-up method. The system includes a mobile APP (10), a cloud server (20), a computer system (30), a programmable logic controller (PLC) system (40), a stereo garage (50), and an all-in-one touch machine (60), where the all-in-one touch machine (60) is deployed next to the stereo garage (50), and the computer system (30) is deployed outside or inside the stereo garage (50). A fully-automatic parking method uses different parking and pick-up modes, which technically ensures that users can get their vehicles in time without hindering other users, and allows users to truly experience the system intelligence. This deeply embodies the smart city's idea of interconnecting everything with a mobile phone. The method largely solves problems such as parking difficulty, illegal parking, unauthorized charges, traffic jams, traffic noise, traffic accidents, and vehicle pollution.

A system and method for managing a permit-based parking environment governed by a parking program. The permit-based parking environment includes a number of parking permits each including a unique RFID tag and tag number. One or more RFID readers are used to scan the vehicles parked in the parking environment to determine if a RFID tag is associated with the parked vehicle. The results of the scan along with information related to the parked vehicle are provided to a permit management system to determine if the vehicle is parked within the scope of privileges pre-defined for that vehicle, pursuant to the parking program governing the parking environment. The permit management system stores, manages, and monitors data related to the permits controlled under the parking program.

A modular bike lock includes a locking mechanism and a securement mechanism coupled with the locking mechanism. The securement mechanism wraps around at least a portion of a bicycle and includes a locking end configured to engage with the locking mechanism to lock the bike lock. The bike lock includes a wireless communications interface and a processor that receives, using the interface, a selection from a mobile device that indicates that the mobile device has selected to use the bike lock and communicates, using the interface, a unique identifier associated with the bike lock to the mobile device, the unique identifier enabling the mobile device to unlock the bike lock. The bike lock locks automatically in response to receiving the locking end within a portion of the locking mechanism without receiving an additional input from the mobile device. The bike lock is mountable on a support structure.

This disclosure provides methods and apparatuses for vehicle passing control on a toll road. In an implementation, a method performed by a roadside apparatus comprises: sending, to a vehicle at a first power, a payment inquiry message for requesting payment voucher information of the vehicle that has completed a payment of a toll for passing through a gate without actually passing through the gate, wherein the first power is less than a second power at which a payment interaction message is sent for collecting the toll from the vehicle, receive, from the vehicle, a payment response message corresponding to the payment inquiry message, wherein the payment response message comprises the payment voucher information, and generate, based on the payment response message, a passing control signal for controlling the gate to release the vehicle.
