Revolutionizing EV Charging with Smart Camera Technology

Streamlining EV Charging Experiences

Public EV charging often involves juggling various apps and cumbersome payment processes, creating barriers to broader EV adoption. Revel is partnering with Juice to use smart cameras at EV charging sites to solve these issues. By employing computer vision, Juice can identify charging vehicles and facilitate the charging process seamlessly.

The Aim: Simplification

With the goal of easing the user experience, Revel’s COO Paul Suhey emphasizes avoiding lengthy sign-up and app-dependent processes. Juice aims to replicate the user-friendly experience enjoyed by Tesla drivers, making charging accessible to all EV owners.

Understanding the Technical Integration

• Camera Recognition: Utilizing advanced computer vision technology to identify vehicles quickly.
• QR Code Signup: Scanning a QR code leads to a web-based signup, negating the need for app downloads.
• Payment Simplification: Users can link payment options with existing mobile wallets, allowing effortless charging.

Operators like Electrify America often complicate the charging experience with app dependencies. Revel's innovative solution addresses this dilemma, aiming for a universal charging solution.

Juice uses machine learning to ensure accurate vehicle identification and initiate a charging session as soon as a car arrives at a charging stall.
