Automotive Diagnostic Tools — Remote Vehicle Testing & Collaboration
The Challenge
Automotive service centers and R&D departments use a wide range of USB-connected diagnostic tools for vehicle testing, ECU programming, and fault analysis. Traditionally, engineers or technicians must be physically present with the vehicle and tool, leading to:
- Limited collaboration between distributed teams
- High travel costs for remote technical support
- Inefficient use of USB diagnostic devices, as they cannot be shared across locationsor virtual machines
Our Solution: ChilliSky USB Server
The ChilliSky solution functions as an advanced Ethernet USB device server, enabling remote USB connectivity through USB over Ethernet and USB over IP (TCP IP) technologies. This allows diagnostic tools to be securely accessed over LAN, VPN, or the internet. Technicians can run diagnostic software on their local computer while remotely controlling the USB device plugged into another site.
