Leave for what? We should be looking up to countries that has been doing these for years. P.S There are over 1.6 millions APS (Automated Parking Spaces) in Japan
So should a lifted International SUV attempt to park in an average height parking garage... If you have the money for a car not compatible with automated parking, valet haha
I think that's why everything seems so gentle. I'm sure the system uses audio detection to determine if a vehicle alarm starts -- Not sure what it'lldo about your annoying car though.
M0U53Y The police will probably just ignore it and complain to the owner that they were dumb enough to leave the car at the sealed robotic lot without disabling the alarm. Also parking garages have notoriously bad cell reception.
Well you either go back up and waste time wandering the garage looking for your car, or you actually enjoy life while your vehicle is brought back to retrieve your phone :)
We get it, other countries have had somewhat similar systems for some time now, this is "new" because it's more advanced using robotics and it's being used in the US, a place where even today it's not really necessary. The big difference can essentially be summed up as, in Asia or India these types of decks are built out of necessity, in the US they're built to help create density.
Lost me at 10 minutes to get your car back. It is amazing, but still needs work. Like +Antti Moillanen said, what if multiple people want their car, you would have to wait for 30 minutes. Technology is not about how difficult something is to be made, it is about how simple and practical something is regardless of how difficult it is to pull it off
won't autonomous driving do this already without the need of complicated robots? Tesla already has a "find parking mode" where you get off at the destination, then the car drives itself around looking for parking (while reading parking signs), and parks itself. Then you can summon it from your phone, and it will find you via GPS.
ASRS for cars. Seems like the line the small robots follow the yellow painted line...so if a car is leaking fluid and covers the lines or even cover the cameras on the robot that followings the line, then there will be a problem.
It would work exactly the same except you can call your car directly from an app and it'll be synced with the garage so you don't have to pick it up and it comes out by itself.
It's not like it takes forever to have everybody looking for it's ticket by the booth, searching for it's credit card that they left in their jacket in the trunk or anything like that already takes forever :D
I love that robot that picks up the vehicle. I want one for my own home garage so I can just get out of the car take out my groceries and let the car park itself inside the garage perfectly every time. Ya I'm just freakin' lazy.
so what happens if there is a big event going on, and you are there to go park your car on the machine, but the line up to the machine is 100 cars long?
sranjesuper same thing basically happens with non-robotic parking at a mall, pay parking lots, or other venue. You drive around looking for a spot for an hour, and/or wait in line for a spot. I don't get your point.
It would have been nice if they explained why this was better than what they have been doing in Japan for several decades. Because everything in 'Murica is better than anywhere else, isn't it?
So OLD, I've seen these (unused) also in parkings of Chinese shopping malls. There is a BIG practical problem with this system. When you park your car in a shopping mall for shopping you can visit your car several times to dump purchased items in your car so you don't need to carry them around. In this system that's probably not possible?
Put a hold harmless clause in the terms of use for the parking garage - such that it would not hold harmless for equipment negligence. There are probably other technicalities - but I'm not a lawyer.
Yes but there are only so many spaces that allow you to get in/out of your car. So there will surely be a queue of people waiting for their cars to come down the lift?
***** But how many can you really have? If you have like 50 (or more) then that defeats the point of this parking building taking up a smaller footprint. Secondly imagine if its the 23rd December. Lots of people will be out doing Christmas shopping, suddenly there are like 100 people wanting to get to their cars. Some of them are going to have to wait and if its 10 mins per car, then its going to take ages?
***** i actually wanted to troll you, but u seems like taking my answers seriously. Ok. Here let me tell you. We are living in capitalist world right? 1. You want priority? Pay more 2. Fast parking and collection? Pay more 3. Have multiple cars delivered to you and your scandal at the same time? Pay for more 4. Anything you want to hijack the system? Pay for more P/s: the biggest mall in my country has two or three exit for parking area. 50 shoppers still have to line up their cars and touch their parking card at the exit gate.
So...what exactly will happen if i'll stay in the car? Is there a way to trigger the exit from inside - it doesn't seem so Concept is cool but only for long term and overnight parking. Going at store I might want to leave a kid or a dog hanging in the car
there's probably a staircase somewhere to get out and some sensors on the robot just like the ones you'll have in a car when it brakes to avoid hitting pedestrians.
Except to build such a place you'd need a larger building so the car can turn around and get into/out of spots. It costs more due to more material being built as well.
Okey: now you have four robotic self park vehicles but only one space available at Walmart lot; because at the robotic park the self guided vehicle will have to download the parking's program first so it will not interferes with the valet dolly's.
Yea, but making twice as much cement and using twice as much trucks to carry cement and workers to build the damn thing will use a shit-ton of energy. Not to mention it's running on solar power and I doubt it's using all of it. Above all of that, it increases the value of buildings in the area compared to a normal car park.
It's great and all.. But it's not account for the future of self driving cars that's coming quickly. Wasted effort on solving problems for old technology.
Japan has been doing this with bicycles and cars for ages.
Just leave, dude.
Promethean Vision cv
Promethean Vision yeah super practical, just put your stupid bike in a light post
Leave for what? We should be looking up to countries that has been doing these for years.

I frequently see Range Rover stuck in those machines. (coz it's too big.
Someone should bring a slammed and stanced miata and see what happens
So should a lifted International SUV attempt to park in an average height parking garage... If you have the money for a car not compatible with automated parking, valet haha
What if a car has an alarm that goes off with movement/tilting etc.?
I think that's why everything seems so gentle. I'm sure the system uses audio detection to determine if a vehicle alarm starts -- Not sure what it'lldo about your annoying car though.
Derrick Jolicoeur Still, some cars would easily go off from that i reckon...
M0U53Y ...Than the car alarm just goes off. The robot valet won't care or hear it, and neither will the car's owner.
jonnda And if it's linked to the police...?
M0U53Y The police will probably just ignore it and complain to the owner that they were dumb enough to leave the car at the sealed robotic lot without disabling the alarm. Also parking garages have notoriously bad cell reception.
ok, so what happens when you leave your phone in the car... and realise when it's too late
it would be worse too forget the wallet and all money in the car
Human Error. How do we fix that!

you order "i am an idiot" service for $99 also use "moron" code for a 15% discount.

exactly what I thought. You'd see these in NY or LA
I want someone to try to park a 6x6 or 3 wheeler
They make it seem like a revolutionary new technology. We have already been using this in Delhi since like 2011.
Spongebob Squarepants Yup, It's in Sarojini Nagar. Maybe you can find a few videos of it on TH-cam.
Japan has had autonomous parking for many many places in their country for years and no one bats an eye. USA builds one and it's suddenly a big deal.
I'm sure the city Delhi has this kind of garage, but probably not widely used by everyone. It's not the same as widely applied usage.
Tea Sea Tokyo has this all over.
Waffle Wong Yee Ket Tokyo is Tokyo, Delhi is Delhi.
This seems like something I’d use once for the novelty but never use when I’m actually trying to get something done after needing to park...
2:24 Did he just give the universal "I'm going to pretend I understood that" head nod?
lol it was the universal "I'm a reporter going to pretend I understood that" head nod ;))

but then you still need all the extra space for the cars to drive around.
10 minutes??? When I m rushing that would make me have an aneurysm!!!!
reminds of hat scene in I'Robot where the robot just grabs will smiths car and throws it in the system
legendp2011
I was going to say that XD
Oh yeah
ASRS for cars. Seems like the line the small robots follow the yellow painted line...so if a car is leaking fluid and covers the lines or even cover the cameras on the robot that followings the line, then there will be a problem.
I want to scan the QR code but im afraid of whats behind o.o
It is just a text "Finding the music of my life."
They should make more of these for autonomous cars.
Isn't it better to make them underground?.
It would work exactly the same except you can call your car directly from an app and it'll be synced with the garage so you don't have to pick it up and it comes out by itself.
I'd hate to go to a hockey game and then at the end of it have to wait for each person who parked in there to get their vehicles out 1 at a time.
It's not like it takes forever to have everybody looking for it's ticket by the booth, searching for it's credit card that they left in their jacket in the trunk or anything like that already takes forever :D
This would be awesome for rental companies
I am imagining a very long line of cars waiting for the elevators. And a very high parking price.
I love that robot that picks up the vehicle. I want one for my own home garage so I can just get out of the car take out my groceries and let the car park itself inside the garage perfectly every time. Ya I'm just freakin' lazy.
Mike S Tesla model S does it. It even opens and closes the garage door on their own.
This stuff is a common sight around parts of Asia and Europe. America is falling behind.
Better make sure you don't forget anything in your car when you leave, then.
so what happens if there is a big event going on, and you are there to go park your car on the machine, but the line up to the machine is 100 cars long?
sranjesuper same thing basically happens with non-robotic parking at a mall, pay parking lots, or other venue. You drive around looking for a spot for an hour, and/or wait in line for a spot. I don't get your point.

One of the hotels in Manchester has it

When you park your car in a shopping mall for shopping you can visit your car several times to dump purchased items in your car so you don't need to carry them around. In this system that's probably not possible?
You'd think there would be liability issues with this. How do they make sure everyone has insured vehicles?
Put a hold harmless clause in the terms of use for the parking garage - such that it would not hold harmless for equipment negligence. There are probably other technicalities - but I'm not a lawyer.
Yea but if it stops working while your car is on the lift... Yea I'm good fuck that!
10 minutes is to long to be honest, but its a good place to start.
but when multiple people want a car
then have multiple robots. easy
Yes but there are only so many spaces that allow you to get in/out of your car. So there will surely be a queue of people waiting for their cars to come down the lift?
***** have multiple lifts. Easy.
***** But how many can you really have? If you have like 50 (or more) then that defeats the point of this parking building taking up a smaller footprint. Secondly imagine if its the 23rd December.

Anyone know the address in WeHo for this parking structure?
I wonder if they could make a residental package?
They have something like this in germany dusseldorf airport i fact i thought this piece was about that airport
And in Copenhagen, and in Aahus DK, and somewhere in NL (I do not remember where).
How much does it cost to park compared to traditional parking structures?
In Lima really need one
Does that cause indentation on tyres ??
Security must be much better too.
be gentle with my 1991 Toyota it's a real hooptie
you should do the $3 ebay turbo install
hair dryer turbo lol
this looks like its really fucking slow though, imagine if the shit breaks down how long youd have to wait
Anyone else see the one spot with a cart in it? lol..get out an move it and BAM..parking spot
Just wondering why no alarm system is going of by moving the cars :D
America is always late to the party. Every time we get some dope electronic gadget. Japan already had that tech for 10 or more years.
Very cool
That's pretty sweet,Now all we need is a true 21st century green city In the U.S
Waiting 10 minutes for your car... No way
Which company is it?
So...what exactly will happen if i'll stay in the car? Is there a way to trigger the exit from inside - it doesn't seem so
Concept is cool but only for long term and overnight parking. Going at store I might want to leave a kid or a dog hanging in the car
most people don't use parking garages for a quick trip to the store?
Joe Kent most shopping malls have parking garages
there's probably a staircase somewhere to get out and some sensors on the robot just like the ones you'll have in a car when it brakes to avoid hitting pedestrians.
This is the future!
Amazing
Damn Piers Morgan must be desperate for work
when are you coming to Europe?
Yeah but how much is it
So when the power goes out or the machine malfunctions.......
There will likely be back up systems that will be instantly activated when it happens.
it has somewhere around 50-70kw of solar power on the roof, just add a battery big enough to power it for 1 hour so everyone takes their cars out.
i think someone has been look at how disneyworld did their Indiana jones ride
真可怕的系統 取車的區塊 沒電纜連接 電力跟訊號要怎麼傳遞?
不用操作的時候可能會有無線充電呢
No more valets, drivers, programmers etc. Everything is being taken over by machines.
what if you forget to bring something from your car?
Baller
wow really amazing
I Robot remake.
damn I had this idea last week
I saw this already
Only problem is you. ant implement this on mall parkings...
I would never trust this with my car I would love to see it destroying your motors it just teaches drives to be lazy why learn to drive
Useless technology. This will soon be superseded by robotic cars where the car can park itself.
Except to build such a place you'd need a larger building so the car can turn around and get into/out of spots. It costs more due to more material being built as well.
Okey: now you have four robotic self park vehicles but only one space available at Walmart lot; because at the robotic park the self guided vehicle will have to download the parking's program first so it will not interferes with the valet dolly's.
This is not new.
what a waist of energy...
Ikr, people trying to fit more cars in a smaller space to save building materials... fucking useless right?
Theodor Butters I prefer less CO2 in the atmosfer insted of a little more cement
Yea, but making twice as much cement and using twice as much trucks to carry cement and workers to build the damn thing will use a shit-ton of energy.
