If/when H2 does become a reality, the safety of unattended (and under-maintained) complex automated filling systems should be enough to keep this sort of robotics out of commercial use. Don't get me wrong: I am a strong proponent of automation where the cost:benefit calculations are in its favor, but this looks to me like automation for automation's sake. It's also slower than all but the slowest of the gas station attendants I've encountered.
