Did you know that more than 60 million cars are equipped with ADAS, and the number is increasing every year? Another interesting fact is that more than one-third of these vehicles need re-calibration after some common repairs like wheel alignment or windshield replacement.

In many cases, drivers are working to high-pressure efficiency targets where every second counts. Monitoring the changing needs of this segment is no easy task.
