Many air travelers, whether frequent or infrequent, find that boarding, checking luggage and clearing documents at busy airports are not as stressful as one more experience—trying to find a parking space.
Congratulate a robot named Stan. Airport Technology quoted the COO of Stanley Robotics, Stéphane Evanno. "It's a machine that autonomously detects a vehicle, slides under it, lifts it gently by the wheels and moves it to a storage area."
We are not talking about a biped hero grinning at the blue Mercedes. These Stan robots are what James Vincent in The Verge described as "essentially self-driving forklifts."
Stan robots made their service debut this month at France's Lyon-Saint Exupéry airport, in an impressive show of robot valet technology at an airport.
How does the robot system work? The Verge: Customers park their cars in special hangars. The cars are scanned for make and model. Stan enters, "slides a platform underneath the vehicle, lifts it up, and carries it away and parks it."
Romain Dillet in TechCrunch said the Stan robots will make your car accessible shortly before you land.
"For the first time in the world, Stanley Robotics' outdoor automated robotic valet system, developed in partnership with Aéroports de Lyon, was presented in operation on Thursday, March 14," the French company said, in a promotional video.
These are completely autonomous robotic valets. They pick up vehicles at a drop off point and park them for passengers in an outdoor car park.
How easy is that? Airport Technology: "For many passengers, finding a parking space at the airport is the cherry atop the towering wedding cake of stress that comes with air travel." The Stanley Robotics sounds as if it will remove at least that source of stress.
For those who fly frequently, the minutes saved not having to hunt for a parking space are inviting; more minutes are freed to fulfill any other pre-boarding actions. Environmental impact? Stan gets good marks in being a "green" solution; the battery-driven robots, 100 percent electric, are polluting less than other cars moving around in search of a space.
"The setup includes four autonomous robots and 12 cabins for vehicle drop-off and collection. As the vehicles are deposited within a few centimeters of one another, the innovative system will enable more than 500 vehicles to be parked in P5+, a potential space saving of up to 50%," said Karima Kouidri in Airport Benchmarking.
