UVeye announced its partnership with Hypertec, with the goal of kickstarting a mass production of UVeye's inspection systems in response to a growing demand from car dealerships, car auctions, fleets, and other automotive industry players. Production is set to take place at Hypertec's facilities located in Plainfield, Indiana, and Montreal, Canada.
With their shared vision of innovation, and their global ambitions, Hypertec and UVeye work in synergy to manufacture and distribute UVeye's three main drive-through inspection systems:
- Helios: An underbody scanner equipped to detect a wide range of issues, including frame damage, missing parts, fluid leaks, and brake and exhaust system problems.
- Artemis: A tire quality inspection system that rapidly identifies tire brand, technical specifications, air pressure, tread depth, sidewall damage, tire mismatches, and alignment issues within seconds.
- Atlas and Atlas Lite: This 360-degree vehicle-exterior detection system automatically detects damages such as scratches, dents, and imperfections. It examines sheet metal and external body components like bumpers, door locks, grilles, and windows.
"Our drive-through inspection systems have consistently demonstrated exceptional performance, detecting 96 percent of existing vehicle problems within seconds, in contrast to less than 25 percent accuracy for traditional manual checks," said Amir Hever, co-founder and CEO of UVeye. "The demand for our technology has grown exponentially since its debut in North America at CES 2020... We are confident that partnering with Hypertec will propel us to the next level."
A joint team of UVeye and Hypertec engineering and technical experts will be formed to ensure smooth installation, servicing, and customer training for the new systems.
