SMART INFRASTRUCTURE BY BOSCH
Parking from BEDROCK
Ford Motor Company, Bedrock and Bosch are launching a demonstration project with connected Ford Escape test vehicles that can drive and park themselves inside Bedrock’s Assembly Garage in Detroit using Bosch smart infrastructure.
Using a set of infrastructure-based sensors in Bedrock‘s Assembly Garage, vehicles drive and park themselves inside the enclosed garage.
Drivers benefit from reducing the stress of looking for a parking space; garage operators and residents benefit from automated valet parking solutions that increase parking capacity.

food for thoughts ...
Is the interconnectivity between real estate and mobility necessary to provide adequate parking experience?
What are the additional services to imagine for the parking area? What about electric charging?
