BMW Introduces the World's First "MRI" for Cars
Car inspections are typically tedious, requiring mechanics to physically examine every component. However, a BMW center in Honolulu has revolutionized this process by introducing a system akin to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for vehicles, complete with the integration of artificial intelligence.
Car MRI
This BMW center is the world's first auto service to implement a system capable of meticulously inspecting a car without human intervention. Previously, technicians had to manually circle each vehicle with a camera to document any damage. Now, this specialized system performs a 360-degree scan in under 5 seconds.
Service employees are drawing comparisons to MRI, highlighting the system's ability to inspect even the undercarriage – an area often difficult for humans to access thoroughly.
Instantaneous Reports
Upon completion of the scan, car owners receive a comprehensive report detailing their vehicle's condition, which can be instantly sent to their smartphones.
