PORTLAND, Ore., Jan. 24, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- CARFIT today announced it has joined the NVIDIA Inception program, which is designed to nurture startups revolutionizing industries with advancements in AI and data sciences. AI startup in vibration-based predictive maintenance for cars, CARFIT will use NVIDIA® DRIVE series to offer a soft NVH analysis module for autonomous vehicles. CARFIT leverages NVIDIA onboard compute to run Machine Learning for real time issue detection on tires, wheels, shocks and brakes.
CARFIT's core technology uses machine learning to leverage the car vibration NVH science [Noise Vibration Harshness – the science about vibrations and noises in vehicles] to identify wear and potential failures of the wearing parts of the driving gears of a vehicle. The result is an easy-to-use software module that adds NVH computing capacities and access to a NVH knowledge base to identify abnormal vibrations.
"We are thrilled to announce that CARFIT has joined the NVIDIA Inception program, which is designed to nurture startups revolutionizing industries with advancements in AI and data sciences. The collaboration with NVIDIA gives us access to the technical knowledge and hardware that is necessary for accelerating our development of cutting-edge products based on NVH processing with high computing needs." - Henri-Nicolas OLIVIER, CEO CARFIT, adding: "Autonomous cars will need "autonomous maintenance" or predictive diagnostics to guarantee its users defined service level agreements in safety and comfort."
CARFIT started to build the technology over 2 years ago and is currently delivering the first aftermarket solution for cars in circulation.
