Sep 7, 2018 at 0:20 comment added user12102 I think an answer that explains broadly how automated docking works would be great! As for "not used anymore", the shiny new digital version of Kurs is still used regularly at the ISS. See the excellent answer to Do the Soyuz spacecraft bringing astronauts and supplies to the ISS use Ukraine-built Kurs systems?

(yes, driverless cars are much further off than everyone thinks, but space docking just seemed much more controllable situation ... <UNBRIDLED_ENTHUSIASM>put QR-code-like things everywhere and sensors everywhere and do it better than manual!</UNBRIDLED_ENTHUSIASM>).
