I accidentally many years ago fell into a job where I worked on parking automation and fee computers for parking garages, airports, cruise terminals and rental car agencies. It’s a niche but fledgling industry. Not many people know how much software runs parking garages and the like. It didn’t pay very well but the firmware was written in Turbo C and the GUI portion was written in Borland C++ Builder 5 with Delphi. There is a surprising amount of sensor integration with inductive loops and sensors from gates, etc I tried to create some modernized software at that company with a License Plate Inventory application product using C#, VB .Net, SQL Server, SQLCE (for Windows XP Embedded) and ActiveSync. We sold a hundred copies of it. |
