CAPTUR VEHICLE · PILOT CONCEPT
A map for the walk back. An arrow when you’re nearby. Your parking details, all in one place.
Preview a simpler way to find your vehicle, with direction and distance on compatible hardware.
In development. Device, phone compatibility and indoor performance still need testing.
to your right
Example direct distance and bearing
You: Level 2 · Car: Level 3
Demo inputs: saved parking floor and a selected current floor.
Example note saved by the driver. The proposed app would also keep a bay photo here.
LESS TO THINK ABOUT
The proposed app keeps the everyday actions close, with a separate recovery workflow when needed.
Save the available parking position when the trip ends. Add a floor, row or bay photo.
Walk to the saved pin, then use nearby direction and distance where your phone and tracker support them.
Check the latest available report and prepare a recovery case for the appropriate responders.
CLEAR GUIDANCE, WITH CONTEXT
GPS alone cannot reliably identify a parking floor. The preview combines a saved parking floor with a selected current floor. Automatic floor guidance would need a validated indoor positioning system or a shared floor reference. Otherwise the app would say “Floor not confirmed”.
An arrow needs a reliable direction reading as well as distance. Compatible UWB or other validated nearby hardware could support this. Ordinary Bluetooth signal strength cannot provide that arrow, and Bluetooth Channel Sounding alone measures distance. When direction is unavailable, the app would show distance or the saved position instead.
The nearby view shows a direct distance and bearing. A walking route is a separate map view. Turn-by-turn guidance inside a car park would also need suitable indoor maps and positioning.
A saved parking pin shows where a position was recorded. Fresh vehicle reports would require a powered tracker, cellular coverage and a connectivity plan. The app would show the source and time of each available report.
We’re interested in insurer-funded pilots and annual vehicle memberships. Any insurance cover would need a licensed insurance partner and separate policy terms. No insurer partnership, premium discount or tracker approval is currently claimed.
WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MISSING
The proposed recovery case would bring together vehicle details, available location reports and their timestamps for controlled sharing.
See the recovery conceptConcept only. Direct police APIs would require a formal agreement and integration.
Captur does not currently provide live tracking, a police dispatch service or guaranteed recovery. Report a suspected theft through the appropriate police process and leave recovery to authorised responders.
FOR HARDWARE AND CONNECTIVITY PARTNERS
We’re selecting a device manufacturer and managed IoT connectivity provider for the first Captur Vehicle pilot.
Vehicle power and backup battery, GNSS, cellular connectivity, an embedded eSIM option and a validated path to nearby finding.
Provisioned SIMs or eSIMs, supported roaming, activation and usage APIs, and a data plan matched to the reporting schedule.
