Project Overview

The Car Wash IoT Mobile Application is an intelligent mobile solution that aims to improve conventional car wash services using IoT, iBeacons, and mobile connectivity. The application makes it possible for users to locate nearby car wash facilities, learn about available packages, and get instructions on how to go about the process of washing.

The application integrates with the BOB application to get information about car wash facilities, packages, transactions, and billing information. Through the use of iBeacons, which are installed in individual service stations, the application will be able to determine where the user is within the car wash process and provide information. The solution combines location services, IoT-enabled service management, customer engagement, and mobile management services.

Project Objectives

Digitize the existing car wash business using IoT technology.
Facilitate quick identification of the nearest car wash centers for customers.
Show available car wash packages depending on facility location.
Use iBeacon sensors for real-time guidance on services.
Increase visibility of ongoing car wash services for customers.
Offer convenient transaction and billing history information to customers.
Monitor the operation of car wash businesses remotely.
Develop a scalable mobile solution for car wash businesses.

Business Challenges

1. Poor Visibility to Available Nearby Car Wash Facilities

In order to know where to go and which service packages are available, customers have to look for it themselves.

2. No Visibility into the Current Service Stage

It is hard for customers to track in real time which stage of service they are at the moment – washing, cleaning, drying, moving to the next station, etc.

3. No Automation in Service Process Guidance

In the absence of a system that can guide customers in the service process, customers have to rely on personnel to provide the necessary information about the service.

4. Poor Visibility to Billing and Transaction Information

It is important for the customers to have access to their billing and transaction information, but in traditional systems, this information is scattered across several different resources.

5. Poor Visibility into Business Operations

Car wash owners and managers require visibility to their business operations and activities remotely from the facility.

Our Solutions

In response to these problems, we have designed an IoT-enabled Car Wash Mobile App that allows the connection between customers, car wash centers, and service stations through the use of mobile technologies and iBeacons. Our solution integrates geolocation features, iBeacon-enabled service tracking, facility finding, package details, transaction records, and remote management functionalities into one mobile experience. In this way, the car wash providers are able to provide their customers with a more transparent and convenient user journey.

Location-Based Car Wash Discovery

With the help of geolocation technologies, the app is able to identify the nearby car wash facilities and display them to the customer. It becomes easy for customers to see available locations and relevant facility/service details right on their smartphones.

iBeacon Enabled Service Tracking

The iBeacons that are set up at each particular service station detect the customers’ location in the car wash facility. Depending on which service station was detected by the system, the mobile application shows relevant information/images on the service the customer is currently receiving.

Digital Package & Service Details

When arriving at the car wash center, customers can get the details about the available packages and services without additional manual assistance.
