How to Handle Failing Car Parts

February 22, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Nobody wants car parts to fail, but vehicle owners don’t always have control over what happens with their cars. They can keep the rides properly maintained to prevent some issues, but car parts can still break down.

Therefore, the question you should probably be asking yourself is, “How will you handle failing car parts when they creep into the picture?”

Unfortunately, these incidents typically happen at the most inopportune times. For instance, if you plan a road trip with your significant other, don’t be surprised if an engine component decides to go kaput. The point is that you need to try and be prepared for dilemmas, and that is where these tips can be of assistance. [Read more…] about How to Handle Failing Car Parts

Automatic Automotives: Why Newer Tech Parts Cost More to Repair and Replace

February 16, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Cars have gradually become more complex over the years. The newest models contain tech parts all over the place. Some items keep systems functioning correctly. For instance, engines/exhausts now sport sensors that relay messages to onboard computers.

They are configured to ensure the motor runs nice and smoothly. But if these pieces malfunction, you’ll probably know it. That’s because symptoms like black/white smoke escaping the exhaust, poor gas mileage, or a rough idle could present themselves.

Meanwhile, you’ll find tech parts advertising driver-assist and safety features. They tell people when to correct their driving or automatically make adjustments to prevent accidents. What about that infotainment system with the touchscreen on the dash? [Read more…] about Automatic Automotives: Why Newer Tech Parts Cost More to Repair and Replace

7 Crucial Automobile Safety Considerations for Mechanics

January 11, 2022 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

Some people want to own a car, and some want to fix it. The automobile makes our life easy, and automobile mechanics help do it. We can repair our vehicles anytime we want, and they provide the best work for our car.

Robots who goof: Can we trust them again?

August 12, 2021 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

When robots make mistakes – and they do from time to time – re-establishing trust with human co-workers depends on how the machines own up to the errors and how human-like they appear, according to University of Michigan research.

In a study that examined multiple trust repair strategies – apologies, denials, explanations or promises – the researchers found that certain approaches directed at human co-workers are better than others and often are impacted by how the robots look.

Lionel Robert (main picture), associate professor at the U-M School of Information, says: “Robots are definitely a technology but their interactions with humans are social and we must account for these social interactions if we hope to have humans comfortably trust and rely on their robot co-workers.

Inspection and Diagnostic Robots: What they Mean for Society

May 8, 2020 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Seventy percent of robots in the United States are employed in just four industries: auto-making, electronics, plastic and chemicals, and metals manufacturing.

Inspection and diagnosing play an important part in all these industries, so a variety of robots have been programmed to inspect equipment and diagnose problems as they arise.

Of course, inspection and diagnosis are not limited to manufacturing; they are the safeguards of society. AI diagnostics and autonomous inspection are helping us in more ways than we can imagine. [Read more…] about Inspection and Diagnostic Robots: What they Mean for Society
