Enhancing User Acceptance of Automated Parking Systems in Thailand's Urban Low-Rise Household
Main Article Content
Abstract
Automated parking systems (APS) have the potential to offer numerous benefits for low-rise housing developments, such as optimizing space, reducing emissions, saving time, improving land use efficiency, and enhancing security and safety. However, the successful implementation of APS relies on various factors, including the selection of appropriate technological components, careful design considerations, and addressing potential challenges and limitations. This study seeks to investigate and examine the main drivers and barriers that influence user acceptance of APS in Thailand's low-rise household sector. The study employs the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model as its theoretical framework, while also incorporating additional factors specific to the context of low-rise housing and APS. The findings of this research are expected to provide valuable insights for real estate developers, policymakers, and stakeholders as they navigate the complexities and opportunities associated with integrating APS into Thailand's ever-changing real estate developments.
