Custom solution for remote support of USB and serial port devices

Our unique solution will help your company maintain and repair customers' devices over the Internet

Get access to client's remote USB or COM port equipment over the network

There are a variety of diagnostic tools that help collect and analyze data about how a device (vehicle) is performing and if repairs are needed. These include OBD devices, programming units, ebike diagnostic tools, and more. To perform their function, such devices need to be connected directly to a malfunctioning device via its USB or serial port. In case the direct connection is not possible or is conjugated with high logistics costs and substantial expenditure in terms of time, the most efficient solution will be remote access to a USB/COM port of a faulty equipment or vehicle.
HelpWire offers the unique technology that allows accessing USB and COM port devices over the network. The solution eliminates the need to transport customer equipment to a specialist or send technicians to the client location.

Let's see how it works with an OBD tool

All that is required is a simple installation of HelpWire on a client computer and a hardware module on the specialist's side.
  • A car owner installs HelpWire on their computer and connects their car to the PC over a USB port.
  • The software shares the USB port over the Internet.
  • On the other side, a technician uses a hardware module running Linux or Android with HelpWire embedded in it to access the shared USB port of the remote car. Connected over the Internet, the module emulates the remote port.
  • Now, the specialist can attach the hardware module directly to the OBD tool just as if they were connecting the remote client's car.
This way, the diagnostics of the car is carried out remotely, which allows saving considerable time and money.
