Netherlands-based Rocsys makes robotic devices that allow EVs to be charged without human intervention (see the feature in our January/February 2020 issue). No special power requirements—it’s just 120 or 240 volts, so it’s really super-easy to install. That part is relatively simple. It uses computer vision.
