If worrying about your vehicle and personal possessions has always made
you hesitant about using valet parking, Honda will alleviate your fears
with a new system that replaces clumsy valet drivers with overhead tracking cameras and software smart enough to juggle an entire lot full of cars.
First and
foremost, the system does require a vehicle to be equipped with
electronics that allow it to drive itself remotely, but after that the
technology in use here is actually fairly basic. Overhead video cameras
covering the lot—like those already in use for security—can detect when
someone drops a vehicle off to be parked. And this overhead footage, in
conjunction with live feeds from a car's backup camera, allows the
system to safely maneuver it around a crowded lot and into a spot.
And because
the software that decides and keeps track of where vehicles get parked
can see everything going on in a lot at once, it's able to accurately
plot out safe routes for vehicles that eliminates the risk of
collisions. So not only is your vehicle guaranteed to be returned
without a scratch on it, there's also no one you need to tip. [DigInfo TV]
