AI-Powered Predictive Maintenance

Catch the failure before it happensright at the edge.

AutoGuard reads engine temperature, vibration, and pressure signals as they're generated, scores failure risk locally on Raspberry Pi and ESP32 hardware, and tells your fleet team exactly which component to check - days before it would have failed on its own.

System Architecture

One pipeline, from raw sensor to maintenance order.

Every reading moves through the same seven stages, in order - there's no step a vehicle's data can skip on its way from raw signal to a maintenance recommendation on the dashboard.

01
Vehicle Sensors
Temperature, vibration, RPM, oil pressure, battery voltage.
02
Data Acquisition
Continuous capture from onboard sensor arrays.
03
Data Processing
Cleaning, feature engineering, signal normalization.
04
ML Engine
Random Forest, XGBoost, Isolation Forest inference.
05
Failure Prediction
Per-component failure probability scoring.
06
Recommendation Engine
Specific, actionable maintenance instructions.
07
Fleet Dashboard
Centralized view across every monitored vehicle.
The Shift

Reactive maintenance guesses. Predictive maintenance knows.

Most fleets still run on a fixed service calendar or wait for a dashboard light. Neither actually tracks the part's real condition - this does.

Reactive / Calendar-based
  • Parts replaced on a fixed schedule, worn or not
  • Failures surface as a breakdown, not a warning
  • Diagnosis starts only after the vehicle is already in the shop
  • No visibility between scheduled inspections
AutoGuard / Condition-based
  • Parts replaced when sensor data shows real wear
  • Failure risk scored continuously, days ahead of impact
  • Every alert names the component and the fix
  • Edge inference keeps monitoring even offline
Remaining Useful Life

Know how many days a part has left - not just that it will fail.

Each tracked component carries a live countdown, so maintenance gets scheduled with lead time instead of guesswork.

Built For Every Role

The same fleet, seen through four different lenses.

Each console loads scoped to what that role needs to act on - nobody wades through screens meant for someone else's job.

Vehicle Owner

Monitor your vehicle's health, get plain-language alerts, and track full maintenance history in one place.

Owner console

Fleet Manager

Oversee every vehicle at once with fleet-wide analytics, downtime reporting, and maintenance planning.

Manager console

Technician

Work an assigned inspection queue, update repair status, and view live diagnostics per vehicle.

Service Manager

Coordinate service centers, assign technicians, and track operations across every location.

Console Access

One console, scoped to what each role needs to act on.

Expected Impact

Built to move maintenance from reactive to planned.

Economic

Lower downtime losses and reduced unplanned repair spend across the fleet.

Industrial

More reliable equipment and maintenance decisions grounded in live data.

Sustainability

Parts get replaced when they're actually worn - not early, not late.

Operational

Edge inference keeps warnings flowing even when connectivity drops.

Fleet Analytics

The distributions behind every alert on the dashboard.

These are the same aggregate views a Fleet Manager sees - where risk concentrates, how it spreads across components, and what it's done to downtime since rollout.

Trusted In The Field

Fleet teams don't adopt a dashboard - they adopt fewer surprises.

These accounts describe the kind of operational shift AutoGuard is designed to deliver for commercial and passenger fleets.

"We used to find out about a bearing failure when the driver called from the roadside. Now the alert lands two weeks earlier, with a part number attached."

"Edge inference matters more than we expected. Our depots sit in low-signal zones, and the risk scores keep updating even when the network drops out."

"Technicians stopped guessing which part to pull first. The queue is already ranked by remaining useful life, so triage takes minutes, not a full inspection."

Runs on the vehicle, not the cloud

Inference happens on Raspberry Pi and ESP32 hardware onboard, so warnings keep flowing even with no signal.

Trained on real degradation cycles

Models are built on the NASA CMAPSS turbofan dataset's run-to-failure trajectories, not synthetic labels.

Every alert ships with an action

No raw scores without context - each flag arrives with the specific inspection or part to check.

Know Your Vehicle

Small habits that add days back to a part's remaining life.

AutoGuard flags the failure - these are the everyday habits that slow the wear down in the first place. Swipe through, or let it play.

Tyres

Check pressure monthly, not just at inspection

Under-inflated tyres run hotter and wear the shoulders unevenly, which quietly shortens tread life and skews vibration readings.

Engine

Stick to the oil-change interval, even on light use

Oil degrades on a clock as much as a mileage counter - short trips in stop-start traffic age it faster than a highway run.

Brakes

Listen for the first squeal, don't wait for grinding

A squeal is the wear indicator doing its job. Grinding means the pad is gone and the rotor is already paying for it.

Battery

Terminals corrode faster in heat and humidity

A quick wipe-down of the terminals every service cuts resistance build-up that otherwise masquerades as a weak battery.

Cooling

Coolant loses its properties long before it looks dirty

Old coolant stops protecting against corrosion even when it's still the right colour - follow the interval, not the appearance.

Air Intake

A clogged air filter shows up as poor mileage first

Restricted airflow forces a richer fuel mix, so a fuel-economy dip is often the earliest sign, well before performance drops.

Suspension

New vibration on a familiar road is worth a look

Bushings and shocks degrade gradually, so drivers adapt without noticing - a sudden change is the more reliable signal.

Dashboard

A dashboard light rarely means "ignore me"

Amber usually means schedule a check soon; red usually means stop safely and check now. Treat the colour as the priority level.

Duty Cycle

Heavy loads and dusty routes shrink service intervals

Manufacturer intervals assume average conditions - fleets running heavier loads or dustier roads should service sooner, not later.
