At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), ProovStation unveils a scanner geared towards the American rental market.
ProovStation, a French company leading in AI-assisted automated vehicle valuation, unveiled an innovative AI-powered car inspection scanner at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2024 in Las Vegas. This cutting-edge technology is designed to streamline and digitize the inspection process for high-turnover vehicle rental businesses in the United States.
The scanner, a drive-through portal fitted with eight cameras, generates a 360° scan within seconds and takes 300 high-definition images when a vehicle is checked out and checked in. The scanner automatically generates a full damage report that includes vehicle information, a damage list, and tire information. All reports are timestamped, geolocated, and secure.
The AI-powered imaging and damage detection capabilities of the scanner ensure accurate identification and documentation of the vehicle's condition. This automation enables rapid and reliable inspections without human intervention, improving efficiency and consistency.
The scanner has already been in use at vehicle rental facilities at major airports and train stations in 11 European countries and the U.S. for over 5 years. ProovStation's technology has been responsible for more than 28 million scans. The company has recently opened an office in Miami to further expand its reach in the U.S.
Gabriel Tissandier, co-founder and general manager of ProovStation, stated that the AI-powered car inspection scanners aim to simplify, speed up, increase transparency, enhance security, and make the car rental experience easily accessible in the U.S.
The benefits of using ProovStation's scanner are numerous. It offers increased accuracy and objectivity in damage assessment compared to manual inspections. The scanner's AI-backed evidence of car conditions helps reduce disputes and customer service issues. The automation of the inspection process results in significant time and cost savings for companies. Furthermore, it enhances operational efficiency for rental agencies and dealerships by scaling inspections without proportional increases in labor.
ProovStation's scanner has garnered recognition in the industry, winning Fleet Europe's Car Remarketing Award in 2019. The company has also successfully partnered with major rental companies such as Sixt, indicating deployment across multiple rental lots internationally.
With over 200 units of the scanner sold worldwide, ProovStation's AI-powered car inspection scanner is poised to revolutionize the vehicle rental industry, offering efficient, reliable, and transparent assessment tools that are increasingly used globally.
The AI-powered car inspection scanner, developed by ProovStation, not only utilizes artificial intelligence for damage detection in vehicles but also integrates this technology with the emerging field of autonomous vehicles, potentially transforming the automotive industry's lifestyle by leveraging technology for smooth, efficient, and secure vehicle transactions. As more consumers gravitate towards shared mobility solutions, the adoption of ProovStation's scanners in the United States could foster an landscape that seamlessly incorporates artificial intelligence, cars, and the evolving lifestyle preferences of its users.
