Abstract
A system for modifying process data of a car wash based on captured evaluations of vehicle washes performed on the car wash, comprising: a set of mobile terminals, each adapted to perform an algorithmic evaluation process; and a control module, implemented on the car wash, for controlling and/or regulating the car wash based on the detected feedback signals encoding evaluations of vehicle washes performed on the car wash, and in data communication with the mobile terminals via the control interface.
Claims23
A computer-implemented method for evaluating a vehicle wash performed on a car wash, comprising the following method steps, which are at least partially performed on a mobile terminal:
- providing a human-machine interface and a control interface to a control module of a washing system;
- outputting fields on the human-machine interface used to detect at least one evaluation signal to evaluate the wash;
- upon detection of a negative evaluation signal:
- reading in a generated interactive virtualized representation of the vehicle and outputting the same on the human-machine interface of the mobile terminal;
- issuing a request on human-machine interface to activate the areas to be objected in the interactive virtualized representation by means of activation signals;
- acquisition of the activation signals in the interactive virtualized representation;
- reading in an identification of the objected areas on the vehicle based on the detected activation signals;
- generating feedback signals for forwarding to the control module via the control interface, the feedback signals encoding the identified objected areas.
