Any smart city is incomplete without having smart parking solutions. Therefore, major OEMs are regularly conducting R&D in hi-tech parking systems. Automated parking systems are in fact the need of the day, which explains why several developed countries are switching to robotic parking systems.
Will robots park your car?
Well no, it might take some more time for robots to play the valet take over your car and park it. But robotic parking systems does make the ‘gruesome’ task of parking your cars far easier and systematic. A concept which developed in the early 90’s, robotic parking technology is one of the best ways in which spaces can be used intelligently. This system is highly popular due to its potential to bring down the time wasted in looking for a parking space, reduces the carbon footprint, and most of all facilitates better security for your vehicles.
This is how robotic parking systems work
All you need to do is drive into the automated parking garage, and seek out the most convenient parking station. The automatic sensors here make it a point that your vehicle is positioned in the right manner, so that there are no chances of it getting scrapped or bumped on. This way the system offers better safety to your vehicles.
The next step is to get your parking card from the kiosk. That’s it. Your work is done! Now it is for the robotic parking systems to pick your vehicle and place it in the shelving system. On your way back, all you need to do is go to the exit terminal and get your car in less than three minutes. As you read this, we are sure you might be amazed how parking a car can get so easy. But then this is what smart technology is all about – getting work done in the most uncomplicated manner.
Technavio Advantage
Backed with years of experience and knowledge, the market analysts at Technavio predict the global market for robotic parking systems to grow significantly. The sheer inefficiency of the traditional parking spaces, along with the need for higher safety have triggered the demand for automated parking systems.
