With the AUTOParkit system a user can drop off their car in a fraction of that time, saving time for the more enjoyable things in life.” In a conventional garage a person could easily spend 10 to 15 minutes finding a parking space, then waiting for an elevator and then walking out of the structure. “Mobility and specifically parking are one of the latest ways automation of normal or mundane tasks can be applied. “Automation is playing a bigger role in our lives every day,” said Shawn Adam, VP of Sales and Marketing at Dasher Lawless Automation – which makes the AUTOParkit Systems. The system will provide fully automated charging stations for users with electric vehicles, and utilize advanced cameras, sensors and sophisticated programming to provide a simpler and safer parking experience – with the promises to park and retrieve a vehicle in as little as 180 seconds. The system features two street-level Load Bays, each with separate etrance and exit doors to make parking and leaving as seamless as possible. The AUTOParkit system is unique as it was designed to work within the confines of the existing Detroit Free Press basement. “By incorporating AUTOParkit’s advanced mobility technologies with our plans for renovation, we were able to add a layer of parking that would have otherwise not been possible, while simultaneously enhancing the parking process to provide an experience previously unmatched in our region.” “The project was specifically designed to maximize parking while preserving the historic Building’s distinct architecture,” said Kevin Bopp, Vice President of Parking and Mobility at Bedrock.
