I can see a handful of benefits to technology like this.
You don’t need the owners keys to move the vehicle. Thus you can retrieve or even rearrange vehicles at any time.
Better for the environment. You reduce unnecessary gas usage since the bots use electricity.
Can be used indoors. No gas means no fumes which means parking garages wouldn’t need expensive ventilation systems to remove the CO2 gasses
Better mobility. These can turn on a dime and move sideways. That means a parking garage that fits more cars and takes up a smaller footprint.
Potentially safer for the cars. This one rides on them actually perfecting the technology, but the bots could eliminate the risk of car damages due to human error.
Granted, I see this less as a technology for rich snobs and more as a thing for packed cities or huge businesses.
