AirPro Diagnostics, the leader in remote diagnostics, scanning, programming, and cost-effective ADAS calibration solutions for the collision, glass and mechanical repair industries is excited to announce the result of yet another round of third-party testing success for the Auggie. The Auggie mobile static calibration device has now met the EURO NCAP safety standard and ensures a complete and safe
FFC ADAS recalibration.
(Euro NCAP) is a European voluntary car safety performance assessment program (i.e. a New Car Assessment Program) was originally started by the Transport Research Laboratory for the UK Department for Transport but later backed by several European governments, as well as by the European Union.
Their slogan is “For Safer Cars”.
In 2023 Auggie met both the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) standards. With the IIHS standard, Auggie earned the highest rating possible: Superior.
FT Techno of America (FTTA) an independent vehicle evaluation company performed the EURO NCAP recognized ADAS tests at the Fowlerville Proving Grounds to validate the effectiveness of an Auggie Calibration:
EURO NCAP: FTTA tested the Auto Emergency Braking (AEB) performance for Car to Car and Car to Pedestrian as well as Lane Departure Warning (LDW) performance for a total of 60 different testing scenarios. For each
of the 60 scenarios, the test vehicle calibrated with Auggie passed the test and the ADAS features performed as designed.
“With the proven success of Auggie in North America with both IIHS & NHTSA standards having already been met, we wanted to satisfy our European customers and ensure the EURO NCAP standards were followed as well”, stated Maria Charlton, Managing Director of AirPro Diagnostics Limited, UK. “These efforts confirm the work of our engineers and testing personnel who have worked tirelessly over the last 6 years to validate our patented algorithms and machine learning on thousands of vehicles to ensure the safety of our tested and proven Auggie. This result, in conjunction with the NHTSA and IIHS results, demonstrates that the Auggie is a mobile recalibration solution that calibrates the forward-facing camera in accordance with all available testing standards,” Charlton concluded.
The Fowlerville Proving Grounds, situated on 950 acres in southeast Michigan, is a world-class, independent proving ground, fully equipped with professional engineering and operations staff.
The facility boasts multiple test tracks, including a 20-acre dynamic pad, a 3-mile oval track, an ADAS
Test Facility and many more to test vehicles and equipment manufacturers’ new technologies.
Auggie is a wireless, compact solution that saves time and increases efficiency rendering the ADAS targets and lighting conditions in a theater-like environment to precisely perform forward-facing camera (FFC) recalibrations. Auggie is patented, mobile, and works with most major scan tools and is designed to serve the automotive service sectors with quick, mobile, and safe recalibrations.
