Stan's getting his shot later this year at London's Gatwick airport, where he'll slide a large, slender bed underneath vehicles and transport them to available spots in the parking lot. It's a pretty ambitious experiment as Gatwick Airport is the second-largest in the UK, only second to Heathrow Airport. Gatwick will try the new robot parking system in a long-term parking lot for three months, so says an application recently submitted to the Crawley Borough Council a month ago. He recently underwent a trial run at Lyon Airport and Charles De Gaulle Airport. Gatwick says they'll also create 270 robot valet parking spots during Stan's trial run, while cutting 170 of the 2,350 spots currently available.
