  • Publication number: 20210090461
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating repair procedures, which are displayed on a client computing device as a series of repair steps based on a determined order. A user may be directed to capture an image that includes vehicle identifying information or license plate number using a computer wearable device. The damage information, repair estimate information, and repair procedure information may be obtained based on the damaged vehicle information. Individual repair procedures and their order are determined by analyzing the damage information, repair estimate information, repair procedure information, diagnostic codes, and historical repair data. The user may use the system in a handsfree manner by viewing the repair procedures in a display of a computer wearable device which allows the user to view the repair information while performing the repairs. Additionally, the user may use voice commands or gesture to control the display of particular repair procedures.
