Abstract

Disclosed is a vehicle detection system including the processing device, the bi-stable display connected to the processing device and the detector connected to the processing device. The detector detects the status information of the vehicle to be processed by the processing device, and then the processed status information is displayed on the bi-stable display. The processed status information can be displayed for a long time without power consumption. In addition, the upkeep/repair records and the status information further can be stored in the memory device, and the user is reminded to proceed the upkeep/repair and the to replace the vehicle'"'"'s components.

Claims
