With the EB cadian service, carmakers can gather diagnostic data from vehicles on the road to detect, analyze, and address issues. Data gathered from the car can then be sent to the service center ahead of time to help improve scheduling and provide faster, better service. Beyond that, carmakers can crowd-source information from vehicles on the road throughout their lifecycle and then apply big-data analytics.

They can use performance data to promptly identify hardware or software issues and incorporate the information in current or future fleet development. This will enable them to offer the highest-performing and most user-friendly vehicles with a shorter time-to-market.”
EB candian claims to securely store the data which the carmakers collect through surveys, in an accessible cloud environment so that the carmakers can modify it as per their needs and fleet size. This remote analytics solution uses a unique algorithm to analyze the collected data producing information that can help carmakers continuously optimize their vehicles throughout the whole product lifecycle.
The tool also helps the carmakers to understand and analyze a vehicle and choose the suitable suppliers for their products. Standardized interfaces ensure that additional applications, either from EB or the carmaker’s own solutions, can be integrated.
Rainer Holve, Head of Connected Car, Elektrobit says, “Remote analytics allow carmakers to create value out of the data from their fleet. By remotely evaluating vehicle performance, EB cadian enables them to optimize the development and customer service.”
