Project Overview

The vehicle diagnostics provider partnered with Intelvision to replace their legacy desktop software with a cross-platform mobile application that delivers real-time OBD-II and CAN bus data. The app needed to provide seamless cloud synchronization, intuitive dashboards, and support for a multilingual global user base.

Intelvision’s Talent as a Service model provided a compact, highly specialized team to deliver a robust solution tailored for both everyday drivers and professional technicians.

The application enables users to connect to their vehicles via Bluetooth-enabled OBD-II devices, stream live diagnostics data, and generate detailed service reports. Visual dashboards make it easy to understand fault codes, monitor performance metrics, and manage service logs.

The system architecture supports secure cloud storage of diagnostics history, allowing users to access their data across multiple devices. The app’s design also accommodates localized language settings to support the client’s international market expansion goals.

 

Challenges and Pains

01

Legacy Software Limitations

The client’s existing desktop diagnostics tool lacked mobile functionality and cloud integration, making it outdated and inconvenient for modern users who expected flexibility and real-time access.

02

Complex Data Interpretation

Raw diagnostics data was difficult for users to understand and export, leading to frustration among technicians and everyday drivers who needed clearer insights.

03

User Experience Demands

Customers expected a fast, intuitive interface that could deliver real-time vehicle data with minimal friction—something the old platform couldn’t provide.
