Boomerang Systems, Inc., a leading designer and manufacturer of automated robotic parking and self storage systems, is featured in the April 8, 2013 issue of Fortune Magazine in a story titled “The Robot Garage.”
The article focuses on Boomerang’s innovative RoboticValet™ technology, the history of the company and its leadership, as well as the benefits that its systems can offer for customers.
According to Fortune, “The potential market for robot garages is huge. The product should appeal to customers wherever land is at a premium such as airport car rental locations, universities, downtown apartment and retail developments, and even at transit hubs.”
The story also captures key financial benefits for the developer community specifically, noting, “Real estate developers like the system because it frees up extra floors that now can be used for condos or retail space. That potentially adds up to tens of millions in extra revenues for the developer -- way more than enough to pay for the system.”
Boomerang's RoboticValet™ is a revolutionary parking solution powered by robots that drive on concrete slab floors to transport vehicles to and from parking spaces. The technology eliminates the need for building ramps and reduces the number of drive aisles allowing the cars to fit in roughly half the space required by a conventional garage. Because cars are shut off before being parked in the garage, carbon emissions are reduced and less electricity is used for ventilation and lighting.
