EV Shops Ditch Grease for Tablets: How Auto Repair Shops Are Transforming
Step into a modern auto shop and you'll find technicians poring over live battery data on tablets, calibrating LiDAR sensors with laser precision, and 3D-printing custom brackets on the fly. Gone are the days of grease-stained overalls and guesswork. The U.S. automotive repair and maintenance market was valued at approximately $183.5 billion in 2023, with continued growth projected through 2032. The ADAS calibration service market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.4% from 2025 to 2032, reaching $3.15 billion by 2032. Today's garages have transformed into high-tech labs. Drivers now expect advanced safety checks and electric-vehicle expertise, and the best shops deliver with cloud dashboards, rapid prototyping, and digital diagnostics that keep cars-and their owners-moving confidently into the future. Technicians plug in OEM-grade scan tools that stream ECU data to central servers. They monitor battery state-of-charge curves, voltage sag under load, or coolant-temperature trends from previous road tests. Cloud-based platforms flag anomalies before a breakdown lands a tow truck on the highway. Shops treat these logs like experimental data: they diagnose intermittent misfires by spotting patterns across dozens of vehicles. Electric-vehicle maintenance no longer revolves around oil changes. Technicians inspect battery modules with thermal imaging, verify cell balance, and test regenerative-braking systems with specialized rigs. They update battery-management software and confirm proper cooling-pump operation under simulated loads. Shops invest in insulated gloves and lockout-tagout protocols to handle high-voltage circuits safely. Nearly 98 million U.S. vehicles now feature ADAS. Every windshield replacement or suspension tweak can misalign cameras and radar. Shops deploy precise calibration rigs: optical targets, radar reflectors, and alignment platforms that position vehicles within millimeters. They run static and dynamic calibrations per OEM specs. Insert "ADAS calibration setup image" here. These procedures prevent lane-departure false alerts or misread obstacles. Technicians update calibration software regularly, ensuring each sensor array 'sees' true road geometry. Sometimes parts arrive late or not at all. Modern shops embrace desktop 3D printing for non-structural components: custom brackets, sensor mounts, or trim clips. They machine small adapters on CNC mills for aftermarket upgrades or retrofit kits. This approach speeds repairs and reduces downtime. Technicians treat CAD files like lab blueprints, tweaking dimensions to fit each model. Connected-shop management systems track work orders, parts inventory, and technician hours. IoT-enabled tool platforms report torque counts on critical fasteners, ensuring bolts meet spec. Shops segment their networks to protect vehicle data and customer information. They install secure Wi-Fi for OEM update downloads and remote diagnostics while guarding against cyber threats. When choosing a service center, ask whether their "science lab" offer: OEM-level scan tools with cloud integration for comprehensive bays equipped with insulated tools and battery-test ADAS calibration rigs meeting OEM rapid-prototyping for urgent or rare-part network practices for over-the-air updates and data privacy. Yes, today's service garage often resembles a lab more than a grease-stained bay. Yet amid diagnostic dashboards and calibration rigs, the goal remains simple: get drivers back on the road safely and confidently. Do you trust a shop that treats your car like a data set or one that still relies on guesswork? In the end, the measure of a modern garage lies in miles driven without worry-because every precise calibration and timely repair fuels the thrill of the next drive.

Jetoptera Executes FETT for FTC-250 at Paris Air Show 2025
PARIS, June 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — On the occasion of Jetoptera's debut at the Paris Air Show 2025, we are proud to announce the successful completion of the first test of the engine that will power the J-500, the 500-lb VTOL cargo unmanned aircraft system Jetoptera is developing in collaboration with Eanan Al Samma, for the United Arab Emirates (UAE) market. The First Engine To Test (FETT) was evaluated at the VAN DER LEE Turbo Systems facilities in Zaandam, The Netherlands. The 250 kW turbocompressor, that is the heart of the Fluidic Propulsive System™, is a two-shaft engine using a free turbine that is mechanically coupled to a two-stage axial compressor designed to produce the appropriate flow rates and pressure ratios required by the FPS™. 'The FETT demonstrated a very smooth startup and operability when operated in a turbofan mode. The engine was instrumented in this configuration, to monitor pressure and temperature as well as thrust produced. The next step includes the performance mapping of the turbocompressor, followed by the integration with the FPS™ onto the J-500 airframe,' said Dr Andrei Evulet, CEO/CTO of Jetoptera, Inc. The J-500 prototype is developed specifically for the UAE and MENA market and will be uniquely enabled by the FPS™ to perform unmanned cargo missions with VTOL and unmatched speed, low noise, and reliability thanks to the patented propulsion system. The modularity of the FTC-250 system allows its components to operate in turbojet, turbofan and FPS™ modes. Jetoptera and Eanan Al Samma thank Parametric Solutions, Inc. and VAN DER LEE Turbo Systems for their critical support in the design and manufacturing of the unique FTC-250 architecture in record time.

Helm.ai advances self-driving tech with new vision system
a startup backed by Honda, has unveiled a new camera-based system named Vision, designed to interpret complex urban environments for self-driving cars. collaboration with Honda will see its system featured in the 2026 Honda Zero series of electric vehicles, promising a hands-free driving experience where users can safely divert their attention away from the road. The company said, it is also negotiating with various automakers for the integration its technology into mass-market vehicles. CEO and founder Vladislav Voroninski was quoted by Reuters as saying: "We're definitely in talks with many OEMs and we're on track for deploying our technology in production. "Our business model is essentially licensing this kind of software and also Foundation model software to the automakers." The California-based company's vision-first strategy is akin to that of Tesla, which also prioritises cameras over other sensors like Lidar and radar to mitigate additional costs. Despite this, industry specialists argue that supplementary sensors are essential for safety, providing redundancy for cameras that may falter in low-visibility conditions. Companies operating robotaxis, such as Waymo and May Mobility, employ a mix of radar, lidar, and cameras to navigate their environment. which has raised $102m in funding, counts Goodyear Ventures, Sungwoo HiTech, and Amplo among its investors. Vision synthesises imagery from multiple cameras to generate a comprehensive bird's-eye view map, enhancing the vehicle's decision-making and control mechanisms. The system is tailored for compatibility with various hardware platforms from companies such as Nvidia and Qualcomm. This adaptability allows car manufacturers to seamlessly integrate Vision into their vehicles' existing systems, which are already equipped with proprietary technologies for predicting and planning vehicle movements.
