The brief

Security teams were issuing parking access by hand. Every ticket meant typing details off a passport or Emirates ID, and there was no live view of how full the car parks were.

What I built

Ticket creation with OCR-based auto-fill from passports and Emirates IDs through Azure OCR, badge generation exportable to Apple and Google Wallet, and a live parking availability dashboard.

A React Native scanner app validates entry and exit against the same backend, built on FastAPI and SQL.

Outcomes

ID details captured by camera instead of typed
Badges live in Apple and Google Wallet
One live view of availability for the security team

Ticket desk with OCR fields read from a specimen passport

The same parking badge in Apple Wallet and Google Wallet

Gate scanner app: scanning, entry granted and an expired badge

Entry and exit log for a night shift with flagged exceptions
