Could you build this?
No This is physical hardware and robotics engineering for autonomous vehicle depots, requiring mechatronics, embedded systems, and safety-critical industrial automation that cannot be built with software vibe coding.
What it would actually take: Involves custom industrial robotic arms, automated charging connectors, computer vision inspection rigs, and PLC/ROS2 controllers integrated with AV fleet management software. Building this requires specialized hardware prototyping, mechatronics, power electronics, and industrial safety compliance certifications.
