Bedrock Detroit’s Post

We are very excited to be here at the Detroit Smart Parking Lab to introduce our Flash Bot solution. It's able to be summoned directly to a vehicle, and it will drive autonomously to your car, where you can plug it in and charge it at DCFC fast speeds. Or the bot can be charged and docked to a hub, where it can charge up to 12 vehicles at level two speeds at any given time. The other benefits that, we see for property and business owners right now is the tremendous flexibility that our system provides. They know they need to electrify. They don't necessarily want to marry a vast number of parking spaces or a large footprint strictly to EV charging-only spaces. Our solution allows charging to happen whenever and wherever it's needed. So it's flexible. It's deployable on demand, and therefore business owners can watch and observe the asset utilization and make more well-informed decisions about how to continue to electrify into the future. one of the biggest challenges that we're seeing with business and property owners is that they know they need to electrify to meet the demands of their employees and their customers who want EV charging. However, it is very cost prohibitive with fixed charging equipment. Our solution eliminates the need for nearly all of that, and so we're able to save tens, if not hundreds of thousands dollars of upfront cost savings on the construction side. and then the bot itself is actually powered with AI software, and so it will optimize when it is cheapest to charge the battery. So Flash bot is the world's first level for autonomous driving, energy storage and charging robot. most DC FC fixed charging stations cost about 100 to $150,000 per station to install. And a lot of that has to do with the infrastructure upgrades and construction work. So the bots will charge themselves overnight. when the energy cost is low to be harvested during the day, when it's during high peak on demand hours. very versatile. It's capable of a lot, but here we are demonstrating its EV charging capabilities. So Flash Bot My name is Josh Bitterman. Josiah h b I ttr man with ion dynamics energy. Excellent. And action. so Detroit is special. Detroit is the birthplace of the automobile. It's the birthplace of the assembly line. And I think the grit and the entrepreneurial ingenuity of Detroit is what makes it so special. And this is home. It's always been home to me. And we couldn't be more proud to be part of what's happening here. I think over the last 10 or 15 years, you're seeing entrepreneurial leadership that is taking Detroit into the future and is evolving into being a major hub for tech innovation in the mobility space. So for us, you know, we couldn't think of a more perfect place to be launching our brand. It's. was doing investigation on autonomous parking came across in Detroit from our parking lab. Noticed it was local to where we live here in Detroit reached out to Loren of the DSP. We applied for the grant, received a grant within two months, and a month later, we deployed our mechanical parking system, you can take a conventional garage and reduce the size of that conventional garage by up to a half or two thirds. With the elevated pro valet software, the user can now go to a restaurant or a mall and get on their phone and with our app. The app will guide the user to the most optimal available spot which, displays how Excellent. All right, so. I guess what you said earlier, just like, like, start with, sir, you're going to introduce what Flash Bot is and then, we talk about it. Yeah. Okay. And then give that kind of almost log line, so to speak, that that sums it all up. Okay. Yeah. Get into a little bit more details. Sure. good to go. Cool.
