Systems and techniques for vehicle inspection and condition analysis

Abstract

Systems and techniques for inspecting vehicles, such as cars or trucks. Some embodiments provide a method for inspecting a vehicle using a vehicle inspection system. The vehicle inspection system may include a vehicle exterior inspection system having a plurality of exterior sensor arrays, the plurality of exterior sensor arrays including respective sets of sensors oriented in different directions. The vehicle inspection system may include a vehicle undercarriage inspection system having an undercarriage sensor array including cameras configured to capture images at different angles, and a sensor configured to output vehicle position/motion data. In some embodiments, the method includes: moving the vehicle and/or vehicle inspection system; triggering capture, by the exterior sensor arrays and undercarriage sensor array, of sensor data about the vehicle; capturing the sensor data; stopping capture of the sensor data; stopping movement of the vehicle and/or vehicle inspection system; and generating a vehicle condition report.
