Stan at Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport

Stanley Robotics' Stan is an outdoor autonomous valet-parking robot that lifts cars up to 2,600 kg by their wheels using eight sensor-guided arms and LiDAR SLAM with centimetric RTK GPS accuracy. The robot operates for up to 20 hours per charge, places approximately 100 cars per day, and can optimize parking density by up to 50% in tarmac or concrete facilities operating from -20 to +60 degrees Celsius. Stan is deployed at airports and parking facilities across Europe.

Machine-readable surfaces

Stan's first public airport trial ran at Paris-Charles de Gaulle in 2017. The driver leaves the car in a cabin and enters flight details at a terminal; the robot then slides under the vehicle, lifts it by the wheels and parks it autonomously. Each robot could manage up to 400 car spaces. This early CDG pilot preceded the Lyon flagship.
