Get one of these and you can just steal all the cars lol
I imagine this could (at least modestly) reduce the size of new parking lots or garages and increase the capacity of existing ones if the extra room given to maneuver is no longer needed because of these robots ability to zero-turn a vehicle into or out of virtually any space.
Very modestly. Humans need the same amount of space to maneuver more or less because the size of the car is the limiting factor.
The efficiency of this can’t possibly be very good. Can it?
Better than the gas combustion engine car it’s lifting up amd carrying
Pretty neat, I wonder how it plans the movement and maksure it doesn’t clothesline the car on something. Maybe the facility would need mounted sensors like valve lighthouses? Seems hard to know that the car roof won’t scrape or anything if all the sensors are down in the skateboard
Not a bad point. Probably preconfigured limits at location, or ignored setting set by people. I.e. we know we have high enough clearance for up to this much, we won’t set it off on bigger cars. On automated car park silos probably just a bar at the entrance (like they already exists) to allow only cars below a certain height.
Yes I’m sure there will be zero edge cases that will cause someone to die from this
Most warehouses have similar, death by robot or a moron in a forklift?
Whichever gets the funnier video
Now I want these just roaming around the city moving cars to maximize parking space.
Why even have cars when these skateboards can carry a whole car on it’s back while nimbly maneuvering!?
Smoothness of the ride. Comfort, safety standards, maybe also familiarity.
PLEASE TIP VALET BOT.
