AI-supported app collects tyre data in seconds

Hand scanners, callipers and even the naked eye are still the main tools that many use to assess the quality of tyres. But these approaches take too long and make human error an occupational hazard. Furthermore, these data points are often written down by hand before later being entered manually into a digital ERP system, all making room for more mistakes to creep in. To reduce the workload and ease the time pressure on staff, the Karl + Co. car dealership in Mainz, Germany has been using the TireScanMobile app from GL Technology GmbH for a year now. With the help of the menu-guided application and AI-based object recognition, it records the tyre model quickly and accurately and automatically stores all relevant information digitally.
