Zusammenfassung:An electric vehicle (EV) charging system that autonomously charges EV is provided. The method includes: capturing, by a control system and using an image capturing device, one or more first images, wherein the one or more first images indicates a position of an EV charging portal of the EV; maneuvering, by the control system, a robotic arm of the EV charging system based on the one or more first images; projecting, by the control system and using a fiducial marker device, one or more fiducial markers that are offset from the EV charging portal; capturing one or more second images using the image capturing device, wherein the one or more second images indicates a position of the one or more fiducial markers; and maneuvering, by the control system, the robotic arm of the EV charging system based on the one or more second images.
