Like the rest of the world, the electronic component within vehicles in Tanzania is increasing, a skill that is lacking at VTC. Zuragon and Kvaser teamed up to provide a laptop vehicle diagnostic system consisting of ViCANdo software and a Kvaser Memorator Pro 2xHS v2 interface. With it the students will learn to diagnose issues by installing a Memorator in a vehicle and capturing drive data for post-analysis by ViCANdo. Initially the data will be off-loaded by SD card with the expectation that Tanzania’s 3G network can be used for remote vehicle diagnostics in the future.
The students come from impoverished backgrounds, hoping to learn a trade that will improve their income and lives, as electronics skills are highly valued by future employers.
