The specialist in sharing technology, Invers, has introduced a new solution for carsharing and rental car providers. The so-called Smoke Detection provides real-time information as soon as a cigarette or a vape is smoked in a vehicle. Based on this data, carsharing providers can issue fines to deter smokers, pay for cleaning, and improve their service quality. Most carsharing conditions include a smoking ban as well as significant fines. Since operators previously had no way to reliably prove smoking violations, some customers ignored this rule. The result: poor air quality in the car and a correspondingly bad user experience for the next renter, outlines the provider of the issue.
"Carsharing operators and car rental companies want to offer their customers a perfect user experience," says Alexander Kirn, CEO of Invers. "Our goal is to technically solve as many related challenges as possible: from locating the car, accessing the vehicle, and detecting damages to ensuring clean air in the vehicle, to create the best possible rental experience. Together with operators, we want to make sharing and renting cars more convenient than owning them, to achieve a more sustainable mobility mix overall."
The system uses a small, robust sensor that continuously monitors the air in the vehicle for specific particles. The detection algorithm continuously scans this data to identify tobacco and vape smoke in real-time. Contextual vehicle information from the telematics unit additionally provides detailed insights into events such as ignition, window, and door status to increase evidence security. With comprehensive evidence and timely delivery, offenders are more likely to pay fines and refrain from disputes. In this way, operators can not only generate additional revenue from fines to cover the costs of necessary cleaning and odor elimination measures. They also ensure that the interior of their vehicles remains in good condition in the long term, which increases the resale value, the provider advertises. Furthermore, the solution improves customer retention.
