Abstract
A method includes the receipt of a video stream from a mixed-media device that captures one or more components of a vehicle, the detection of one or more defects associated with the one or more components of the vehicle, the transmission of dynamic feedback to an operator of the mixed-media device from a processor, and the guidance of the operator to address the one or more defects via the mixed-media device.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a processor, a video stream from a mixed-media device that captures one or more components of a vehicle;
- detecting, by an algorithm associated with the processor, one or more defects associated with the one or more components of the vehicle in response to receiving the video stream;
- transmitting, via the mixed-media device, dynamic feedback to an operator of the mixed-media device from the processor based on the detection of the one or more defects;
- and
- guiding the operator, via the mixed-media device, to address the one or more defects based on the transmission of the dynamic feedback.
A system comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- receive a video stream from a mixed-media device that captures one or more components of a vehicle,
- detect, by an algorithm associated with the processor, one or more defects associated with the one or more components of the vehicle in response to receiving the video stream,
- transmit, via the mixed-media device, dynamic feedback to an operator of the mixed-media device from the processor based on the detection of the one or more defects, and
- guide the operator, via the mixed-media device, to address the one or more defects based on the transmission of the dynamic feedback;
- and
- the mixed-media device configured to:
- transmit the video stream,
- receive the dynamic feedback, and
- communicate the dynamic feedback to the operator, wherein the dynamic feedback is displayed on a user interface of the mixed-media device, is audibly received by the operator via one or more transducers of the mixed-media device, or a combination thereof.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing processor-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- receive, by a processor, a video stream from a mixed-media device that captures one or more components of a vehicle;
- detect, by an algorithm associated with the processor, one or more defects associated with the one or more components of the vehicle in response to receiving the video stream;
- transmit, via the mixed-media device, dynamic feedback to an operator of the mixed-media device from the processor based on the detection of the one or more defects;
- and
- guide the operator, via the mixed-media device, to address the one or more defects based on the transmission of the dynamic feedback.
