Can ADAS Calibration Be Done Mobile?

So the right question is not “mobile or static?” but “can this vehicle's procedure be done properly at this location?”

Each manufacturer sets its own conditions, and they vary by vehicle and system. Typical requirements include:

• Enough clear space around the vehicle for the target to be placed where the procedure says.
• A floor that is level, or within the tolerance the procedure allows.
• Lighting that is even and free of glare, and a background without clutter or reflective objects behind the target.
• Vehicle preparation the procedure lists, such as specific loading or tire conditions.

Dynamic procedures are completed on the road, so they depend on conditions such as clearly marked lanes, suitable traffic and acceptable weather. The specifics come from the procedure. Rain, faded markings or heavy congestion can delay or prevent completion, which is why a dynamic job may need to be rescheduled.

We may recommend bringing the vehicle to our Garland location when the static procedure needs more controlled space, lighting or floor conditions than the site offers, or when several systems need to be done together. This is a recommendation about meeting the procedure's conditions, not a claim that every static procedure must be done in our bay.

1. The VIN and the systems or repairs involved.
2. The vehicle's location.
3. What work has been performed, and whether the vehicle is mechanically ready.
4. Photos of the available workspace, if we ask for them.

We confirm whether the job can be done mobile before booking. Not every vehicle or site will be suitable.
