I can't tell if this is AI gen, but it looks like something that would be AI gen

The robot seems to move very jerkily, (although that could be because it's sped up)

But this seems like too much magic. There's no obvious sensors or wheels or motors to make the thing move autonomously


Edit: also that squeezing motion shouldn't work to pick up the car. The tire is made of rubber and therefore quite grippy, so the arms would have to rotate themselves (because they can't slide underneath the rubber)

As well, there doesn't appear to be any mechanism on top of the thing to hold the weight of the car. There's no way those flimsy arms, in a 3rd class lever configuration, are capable of lifting a 1 ton vehicle

Get one of these and you can just steal all the cars lol

The efficiency of this can’t possibly be very good. Can it?

[–] arin@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Better than the gas combustion engine car it's lifting up amd carrying

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.

[–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Very modestly. Humans need the same amount of space to maneuver more or less because the size of the car is the limiting factor.

Here me out : how about making smaller cars ?

[–] swicano@programming.dev 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] Im_old@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

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

[–] deHaga@feddit.uk 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Most warehouses have similar, death by robot or a moron in a forklift?

[–] Im_old@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Whichever gets the funnier video

[–] Noodle07@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

The ones where the rows of storage go domino

[–] ChonkyOwlbear@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

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!?

[–] alternategait@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Smoothness of the ride. Comfort, safety standards, maybe also familiarity.
