'No-brainer'
Bowsher says he learned of UVeye from his
son who saw a presentation at a Digital Dealer
conference. He says the technology will be installed
at the Carl Black dealership in Kennesaw,
Ga., as well as stores in Nashville and Orlando
during the next several months.
Bowsher says it takes roughly a week
for the overall scanner system to be fully
operational, with about a day and a
half devoted to the installation and another
two days to fi ne-tune the cameras
and measure and tweak the scans.
Bowsher says that after he saw the
UVeye tech operational at his Roswell,
Ga., dealership, he told GM executives
the technology was " a winner and a
no-brainer. " He says that in late June, about 30

agreement, and each manufacturer
program varies signifi cantly.
Th e three basic systems are :
1. Helios: An underbody scanner that detects
problems including frame damage, missing
parts and fl uid leaks, as well as brake and exhaust
system issues.
2. Artemis: A tire scanner that within
seconds identifi es tire brand, technical
specs, air pressure, tread depth, sidewall
damage, alignment issues and whether
a vehicle's tires are mismatched.
3. Atlas: A 360-degree detection system
that checks sheet metal and other external
body components, such as bumpers,
door locks, grilles and windows.
Dealership cost will vary depending
on the number of systems ordered,
the number of service lanes on
which they are used and the scanning or service
lane volume required.
Hever says that UVeye systems ensure accurate
