What a stupid idea. Just think of the cost and complex plumbing involved. Anyone that wants that type of system probably has enough money to have a crew on board. Me, I have 5 bumpers attached to my slip horizontally so I don't have to deploy fenders when I dock.
Want what there's nothing there?

Ok, I see it now...
Its a neat idea but seems like a major pain in the butt if something goes wrong... Much easier to place them yourself!

If I (or my Galley Wench) ever get to the point where we're too lazy/stupid/illiterate where we can't set the fenders on our boat, then I'm going to sell the boat and take up watching paint dry for a hobby.
That systems looks like another of those solutions to a non-existent problem, and this one sure has lots of places that it could fail.

Just something else to break and cost more money that I have in my current boat!

If you cannot climb out onto the bow of your boat and are single handling the vessel coming into a dock not your own....it is a good feature.
I'm actually considering a set of those. I single-hand more often than not and have a full camper canvas. This makes it very awkward (and dangerous) to climb up and deploy fenders. I've been poking at them through the windshield with a boat hook, but that's not much better.
Edit: I was finally able to see the video. Not what I thought. This is the set I'm looking into
