Abstract—Car companies like TATA and TESLA have introduced new electric vehicles in the market, accompanied by the establishment of charging stations. However, the current charging time ranges from 15 minutes to half an hour, leading to potential delays when stations are fully occupied. To address these issues, our solution involves connecting all electric car charging stations into a unified system. Users can conveniently locate and select their preferred station, particularly beneficial for long-distance travel with electric vehicles, ultimately saving time. The system is user-friendly, allowing for slot reservation if available, and prompting users to input a new time if unavailable. A percentage of the payment is required online to confirm the booking. Additionally, our system provides the shortest route to the selected station and offers charging stations an interface to manage available and booked slots. Our Android-based system utilizes time-slot allocation techniques and leverages Google Maps API for direction sensing. Voice commands can be utilized to control the software through our chatbot system, while an online payment gateway facilitates swift transactions. By adopting our system, users can significantly save time, easily locate and book suitable charging stations.
