The charging robot and the car's fsd/adas work together for charging. For this intelligent charging system, you just park your car in a normal parking spot; when the charging robot is available, it will communicate the car and the car will autonomously drive itself to the robot for charging; when charged, the car autonomously drives away and finds a new parking spot in the parking lot.
I can say with 100% confidence that the idea of having your car drive away on its own to get a charge and then return would scare the heck out of my insurance agent. If your car runs over a mum and her 4 children will that be a $500 deductible on that coverage?
I agree it sounds scary. Ive recently watched some yt videos on the latest version of tesla FSD software actually getting from A to B with the driver commenting on its performance, explaining why it changed lanes at a certain moment, comparing it to the previous version. Its incredibly sophisticated, with many cameras watching in all directions it sees better than a human driver. I think we will get to a point where insurers prefer its driving to yours. Need to see it cope with narrow old towns in the UK before I can be sure though.
At the rate humanoid robots are advancing, we could have robotic charging attendants before robotic arms. No need for any changes to existing infrastructure and it will be far cheaper as one robot can serve multiple charging piles as opposed to one robotic arm per pile. As a humanoid robot, it can also perform other human-like services car cleaning or even helping to perform simple checks and maintenance on the charging piles.
Tesla still at 400V architecture, no V2L, No V2G. Chinese are far far ahead. Xpeng got flying cars, IM does wireless charging,Nio Li Auto investing in their own chips ET9 has 900V architecture, so does Onvo
In the meantime, why not just have a service that does something similar? Call / request a driver via a trusted app, they arrive in a separate car, pick up your EV and park their car in your parking spot, drive your car to an off-peak fast charger and then return it when it reaches your requested state of charge.
@ And you trust Huawei to solve robot automatic-charging, and every EV maker to solve unsupervised FSD of fluctuating availability of street parking, for millions of apartment-dwelling EV-wanters before that would not be a "waste?"
This is fantastic news ‼️😁🙏🏽👍 Thank you for all your hard work 😓 We Tesla has another advantage, human labor in each vehicle is much lower than Chinese auto production as Tesla uses more robots and even BYD is in deep debt partly because they have big labor overhead. Thanks again ELECTRIC ⚡️ VIKING
The locking pin feature of the charging port should be banned. In this cold winter overnight charging last night, I had a struggle to unplug this morning. probably because the low freezing temperature seized the locking pin it didn't unlock until I tried 3 - 5 times.. It's nice to dream about these futuristic technologies, but there are some more low hanging fruits that can be improved.
We're getting super lazy. We can't drive...NO! That's too much to ask. We need a computer to do it for us. We can't be bothered to plug a car in....NO! Too much much work! Maybe some day I'll have an A.I. robot pre-chew my food for me. And think for me. Yay!
The future of car is bright...possibly...maybe...experts are saying so. People said i was crazy but...I'm not saying this experts are. Copy paste to every video ever and you end up with 30+ minutes of content per day with about 3 minutes of useful one
I am getting a bit tired of plugs for a particular solar panel installer. Most viewers wont believe you get no quid pro quos for your plugging them. They will say to themselves "bet he got a discount on his installation if he agreed to advertise them". I think it devalues your independence if you have such agreements with companies. I am in the UK and I know we have thousands of small firms that install panels. I have a 26 panel system myself. I would suggest you wind down your plugging of this supplier. It devalues your channel and you and makes people question your independence. I love the channel in most respects by the way, its amazing how fast this industry is changing and with your help I feel I know whats going on.
I did not mean to be so short in last post. The electric motor is superior to an internal combustion engine but there are three fundamental problems with the EV concept which will take many years to solve. As a fire engineer and applying common sense will explain. Firstly, severe lack of baseload electricity. how quickly you can in theory charge a car you will require sufficient electricity and the UK and most other countries generate no-where near enough. We can barely sustain 1 million cars due to our grid limitations, currently wind and solar are producing less than hydro with wind at just 1.8%, and solar 0.1% so you could be waiting for the wind to blow before charging! Secondly, many do not want or can afford a new electric car and cannot charge at home which is approx 50% in the UK. Thirdly, safety, the fire risk and fire loading a separate issue of a Lithium Ion battery are huge and are self combusting left right and centre in all applications all over the world and have been doing so well before EV's or battery storage came along. Even if a lithium ion battery combusts as a secondary fire started elsewhere the result is still a massive problem. As an example one of the largest battery storage units in the US has just gone up for the 4th time in 5 years. This will only increase and we just cannot have this which is unacceptable.Lithium ion batteries need to changed.
The grid has adapted over the years to all sorts of increased loads (air-con, industry, high rise buildings, electric appliances of all sorts. It will again for EV charging loads. AND, with time of use tariffs, the grid can be balanced bu=y overnight charging. AND, with V2G, all of those massive EV batteries can act as peaker plants for peak consumption periods. AND EVs are quickly becoming more efficient. STOP thinking linearly. The changes are on an exponential curve! Just look at the improvements in the past 10 years! Yes, EV fires are a problem. BUT, even today ICE vehicle fires are 10 times more frequent. AGAIN, the technology is changing rapidly and EV fires will soon be a thing of the past. Already LFP batteries are largely reducing/eliminating the risk of fires. Soon enough solid state batteries will reduce the risks further. In short, THINK AHEAD.
I am also very concerned about fires. You may want to look up lithium iron phosphate LFP batteries, which are safer. The name is so easy to confuse with lithium ion. I have LFP in my garage taking power from my solar panels. I wouldnt want lithium ion in my house, or my car. I hope solid state batteries come along and are safer still. I think the e-bike batteries that cause so many fires are lithium ion.
Now remember Sam, Lunar New Year/Spring Festival (农历新年 (Nónglì Xīnnián) - more commonly 春节 (Chūnjié) starts January 29th. So don't come with "Why are sales so low January/February?".
@@nickmcconnell1291Payment is transitory, insurance demands that fall-backs are in place are not so transitory; replaceable and robot arm charging have their place, for a while. We will, eventually, be taking taxi rides at a small fraction of the cost of owning a car.
Amazing how modern the Tesla robot arm was compared to the clunky "new" Huawei one! The Tesla one was being developed several years ago. Now Tesla has moved on to induction charging because it is now as efficient as direct connection. No one needs a robot, the car should just drive over the induction plate itself. Huawei will have a market only for older cars as soon all of the EVs will have induction pickups in them.
The Huawei's robot communicates with the car's adas/fsd to do a complete autonomous charging process. You just need to park your car in a normal parking spot and leave. When coming back, it's charged.
@ Understood. Great software but this prototype sure looks clunky. Knowing Huawei I'm sure it works great though. However, as I said above, why have robotic chargers when the industry will be moving towards inductive charging now that the efficiency is nearly identical to direct cabling? Inductive charging is easier and less maintenance is required. It might even eliminate the need for a cable port.... which should save on costs to manufacture.
Because, y'know, it's soo hard to get out of
your car and plug in a cable.
Let the self drive do it for you, stay home and have a beer watching a movie or go walk the dog. If it works, great.

The future is wireless charging. There is already high power wireless chargers.

Once the ROBOTS are in CHARGE..You won't need to worry about how fast you can charge your car...GAME OVER
No, you do not have to do it yourself and you do not need any robotic hands because battery swapping already exists and that's the solution for this.

Some people like being mean to people online because the person they’re being mean to can’t punch them in the face.

Sam... people in apartments =X were not able to charge =X because they lacked automated arms? 😂 ok ok ill buy your bridge.
Tesla is using wireless charging..scrapped the robo arm
This doesn’t seem like something that’s worth doing. We could have had robots pump gas too but we didn’t because it’s not enough of an issue.
2nd...happy with that.

No electricity no future simple wind power today in UK is just 1.6% of grid you are talking rot we are 20 years away from this!!
Wind power provided 29.4% of the UKs power in 2023. Dont have the figures yet for 2024 but it will be higher as more was installed.
Its called battery swap exist and you act like it sucks
I am curious about that tesla snake mode… but it seems to be in the middle of a mat and the cat at the door moment
My understanding is that the Tesla “snake” charging arm was seen to be “sexual” in nature and so a turn off.
Next stage will be no car, no charger, no robot. The best part is no part 😂
You are right... they will be robocabs. You won't own it and won't have to charge it at all. 😉
