Parallel parking can be a real nightmare, especially if you have no valet or any assistance of sorts. Would it be better if your car can park itself instead? Well, this fantasy can come true for you if you visit the newest skyscraper in Birmingham called the Cube, where cars take care of themselves to rest. Plus, the technology used is so robust that you may forget where you parked your car, but now the parking lot! Check out the video for a live demo.
Costing over £2 million to automate, the system in place at the height of 20m has been designed by Andrew Smith of WOHR Car Parking Systems. A lift system is in place to take the car to the lot to find a spot for itself. Smith says that a uniquely designated entry key ensures that the car is always found.
