Running, jumping, and flying: welcome to the future of robotics.


With the increase of electric cars on the road new inventions are being presented to accommodate those drivers. EVAR Parky is a robot that lives in parking areas, waiting to charge your electric vehicle. After parking in a designated spot and plugging in the charging dispenser Parky receives a charging request and gets to work. Autonomously the robot precisely navigates to your car while avoiding pedestrians and other vehicles. With mechanics resembling R2-D2,  Parky plugs in and begins to charge. When you return your car is fully recharged.
