Remote Repositioning: A Remote “Valet”
Go Further
Ford is testing remote control repositioning technology using
vehicle-mounted cameras and real-time streaming video.
Using Georgia Tech-owned
golf carts to prove out the
technology, a person sitting
in a remote location can
access real-time video
streamed over LTE to drive
the carts
The outcome could be a
more affordable and
effective way to share or
park vehicles using a
remote “valet.”
