Watch Ford and Bosch’s garage where the cars park themselves

Ford is testing an automated parking garage that would allow vehicles to be sent off to park themselves, potentially paving the way to ease self-driving technologies into the mainstream.

It’s not the first time we’ve seen the technology. Back in 2017, Mercedes and Bosch began installing a similar system in a parking structure in Stuttgart, Germany. Located at the Mercedes-Benz museum, it was used for demonstrations of the automaker’s take on automated driving and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications.
