According to the firm, as electronic and driverless vehicles get more complex, a system like this is required. The capacity to undertake low-cost and high-frequency predictive maintenance will become crucial for businesses that run fleets of these cars, it claims.
The co-founder and CEO of UVeye, Amir Hever, stated that the company’s objective is to standardize how the car industry identifies damage and mechanical problems on automobiles and to develop new quality standards. He said, “Our patent-protected technology delivers unmatched solutions for swiftly and precisely identifying vehicle problems to automakers, dealers, and fleet operators.”
