For some time now, Hyundai Motor Group has been growing itself into as much a robotics company as an automaker. Its latest featured robot won’t scale the apocalyptic rubble of future dystopias to save/finish off humanity, but it will get people moving more conveniently.
The automatic charging robot (ACR) is designed to connect and charge electric vehicles without the driver having to so much as crack a window. After showing a CGI animation of the design in 2022, Hyundai has now videoed the working prototype in action.
