CARFIT detects Noise, Vibration, &amp; Harshness (NVH) signatures on the key wearing parts of cars : tires, wheels, shocks &amp; brakes. This information is sent via the smartphone app,\u00a0to the car dealer\/service company that installed CARFIT, and uploads it to the back-end NVH signature library. CARFIT engages machine learning and expert data scientists to mine the library for additional patterns and correlates them to known issues. The resulting NVH knowledge base will, for example, predict maintenance needs for each individual car owner or provide valuable insights to the CARFIT partner.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Your business model<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">We employ a B2B2C model.
