How do you respond to a bad customer experience?

Some of us would write a review, or vent about it to our friends and family. But not Slawek Potasz. He’d design a robot to fix the problem. And that’s exactly what he did when he created CarScanner, a photographic robot that replaces a photo booth. From Poland to Canada to Syracuse, NY, Slawek shares his outside perspective on America and the automotive industry.

What we talk about in this episode:0:00 Intro with Michael Cirillo, Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier.

4:50 Somewhat ironically, CarScanner and Slawek have a presence in Syracuse, NY, where ASOTU is headquartered. Syracuse hosts a Genius Accelerator for robotic tech companies, and CarScanner is a part of that accelerator.

6:40 The idea for CarScanner started because of a poor car rental experience in Tel Aviv where Slawek was accused of damages to his rental. And so he said, “Shouldn’t there be a better way to do car inspections than with a pen and paper?”

9:12 Slawek is from Poland and he compares the automotive industry between America and his home country.

19:53 CarScanner is a robot that’s deployable in 5 minutes that will do a 360 capture of any vehicle in two and a half minutes, with background removal. It removes the need for a dealership to have a photo booth or a trained employee.
