…capabilities and sustainability policies. Thanks to consumer expectations and government initiatives, the future of transportation is non-reliant on fossil fuels. With conventional methods of EV charging, a charger is occupied until a driver physically removes that plug from the vehicle. The charger is then only accessible for another EV if the first vehicle has moved. However, with the right robotic parking design, many more EVs can be charged with a single charger due to the robot's ability to move EVs to and from charging positions within the RPS. If an RPS is integrated with an automated EV charging system that…
