AUTONOMOUS ENERGY TRANSFER SYSTEM

An autonomous energy transfer system includes a robotic system that includes an end effector; a slide system for moving the robotic system; a cable management system for managing energy transfer cables; an energy transfer outlet system for the energy transfer cables; a first camera system for obtaining image data associated with a receptacle access point of a work machine; a second camera system for obtaining image data associated with an access mechanism of the receptacle access point and one or more receptacles included in the receptacle access point; a door opening system for opening an access door of the receptacle access point; a door closing system for closing the access door; a connector retention system for enabling coupling between one or more plugs of the end effector and the one or more receptacles; and a connector protection system for protecting the one or more plugs.
