For a long time, we have seen more or less the concept of helping to relieve the pressure on parking in crowded areas. In recent days, Volkswagen has taken another step forward in this area. Volkswagen announced this Friday that it will start German Hamburg Airport conducted an automatic parking system test.
The concept sounds a bit like the driver doesn't have to control, the meaning of auto operation. The official explained that the driver only needs to use the application to reserve a parking space at the airport, and then park the car at the entrance of the garage. After leaving the car, the vehicle will Search for free parking spaces, or charging stations for electric vehicles.
Graphic markings can guide the car to position space in its own driving mode and enter the garage for automatic parking without damaging the car or its surroundings. In addition, Volkswagen's services also include the delivery of dry cleaning packages to the trunk of the vehicle. Internal dry cleaning service.
When the driver returns to the airport, he sends a brief message to the mobile app, summons the car from the parking space, and does not have to wait in line to pay for the parking fee. It can all be completed within the application.
In fact, today's tests are paving the way for major future changes. For example, self-driving cars do not require as much space as people in a parking lot. Therefore, such parking lots can be adapted to more vehicles.
But now, Volkswagen will focus on testing vehicle technology at Hamburg Airport. If all goes well, the car company hopes that the first batch of customers will have the opportunity to test the system in early 2020. At the same time, Volkswagen is also working hard in 2021. Its first self-driving car pushed onto the road.
Did you remember that Mercedes-Benz also demonstrated a similar system last summer. With the prospect of more and more popular cars in the future, paying attention to the industry chain around the car is really more than just focusing on. The car itself is more valuable. And such technology really needs to be applied in China as soon as possible.
