20140088819 | INSPECTION REPORTING INCLUDING A 3D VEHICLE MODEL - In one embodiment, a visual reporting system generates a 3-dimensional (3D) interactive vehicle inspection report comprising 3D model data and inspection data for a particular vehicle. The inspection data, such as recommended repair items, are associated with graphical vehicle sections in the 3D model. Further, additional inspection data, such as instructional videos or inspection photographs, can be provided to a user desiring additional detail. By providing an interactive visual representation of inspection data, the 3D inspection report provides a report that can be customized to provide different levels of detail to different users. In addition, the 3D model can provide a visually compact summary of the inspection data by marking on the 3D model the repair items for the vehicle. Use of the 3D inspection report can raise the likelihood that the vehicle owner understands the need for repair, leading to more repair orders for repair facilities. | 03-27-2014 |
20140074865 | IDENTIFYING VEHICLE SYSTEMS USING VEHICLE COMPONENTS - Embodiments of a repair correlation system are described, wherein the repair correlation system identifies related vehicle repairs based on key parts (or the most important parts) of an automotive sub-system. The repair correlation system can use a database or other data repository of matching parts to identify related automotive sub-systems (e.g., engine, transmission, etc.) by matching key parts for sub-systems across different brands and models. For example, the repair correlation system can determine that repairs for a first engine with key parts A, B, and C are applicable to a second engine with the same key parts. Thus, an engine in a Honda car and an engine in a Ford car could be identified by the system as having co-applicable repair data based at least partly on the key parts matching, even though the engines are used by different brands and models. | 03-13-2014 |
20080208609 | SMART INSPECTIONS - Systems and methods for customized vehicle inspections are provided. An inspection module is configured to receive data regarding vehicle repairs and repair recommendations from a variety of data sources. From the received data, the inspection module analyzes the repair recommendation and/or repair data indicated in the data received from the data sources in light of factors such as the vehicle repair history and/or driver's driving habits to generate customized inspection checklists for use by repair facilities. These inspection checklists may be further customized, depending on the recipient, for example, consumers, service managers, and technicians, etc), as needed. In this manner, the inspection reports provide improved information which results in better inspections, maintenance decisions, and reporting to consumers. | 08-28-2008 |
