VIN Capture For Every An inspection record is only as useful as its connection to the correct vehicle. PRISM KIOSK captures VIN data wherever no existing vehicle identification mechanism exists. Get Started Now arrow_right_alt Inspection Point

Every inspection record PRISM creates has one requirement that has nothing to do with inspection: it must be tied to the correct vehicle. If the inspection record cannot be reliably matched to the right VIN, the record is not complete. The dispute resolution value disappears. The damage accountability chain breaks.

Most PRISM deployment environments already have a mechanism that handles VIN identification: a gate system, a yard management platform, a scanning station, or an existing barcode process. KIOSK is built for the environments that do not. Wherever vehicles arrive at an inspection point without an existing identification mechanism, KIOSK captures the VIN before the inspection begins and ties every subsequent record to the correct vehicle automatically.

Identification Gap

Three environments where vehicle identification breaks down before inspection can begin.

The Entry Gap

Vehicles arrive at yards, compounds, and VDCs from multiple origins, across multiple transport modes, without a standardized identification process at the point of entry. The yard management system may know a vehicle is expected. It may not know which specific vehicle just arrived.

The Handoff Gap

Vehicles change hands between carriers, between sites, and between logistics operators at transfer points where no gate system, no scanner, and no existing identification mechanism is in place. The handoff happens. The vehicle moves. The identification record does not.

The Scan Point Gap

Mobile inspection via PRISM Scan can happen anywhere in the logistics chain. The further from fixed infrastructure the inspection occurs, the less likely an existing VIN identification mechanism is available at the point of capture.

PRISM KIOSK

KIOSK is a vehicle identification module. It captures VIN data at the point where a vehicle enters an inspection workflow, before the inspection begins, and ties that VIN to every subsequent inspection record the PRISM footprint creates for that vehicle. One identification event. One correct record. Every time.

One Identification. One Record. One Source of Truth.

Every inspection record is only as reliable as its connection to the correct vehicle. KIOSK removes every reason that connection could fail.

What KIOSK Is Not

KIOSK does not capture damage. It does not detect surface conditions. It does not produce an inspection record. It does not replace or supplement the inspection capability of any PRISM footprint. Its sole function is vehicle identification: capturing the VIN that ties every subsequent inspection record to the correct vehicle.

If your operation needs additional inspection coverage, undercarriage documentation, panel alignment measurement, or structural dent detection, those requirements are addressed by the PRISM inspection add-ons: the Underbody Scanner, the Gap and Flush Scanner, and the Dent Arch.

KIOSK is in a separate category from those add-ons because it performs a separate function. The distinction matters because an inspection record tied to the wrong vehicle is not an inspection record. It is a liability.

Where KIOSK Is Deployed

KIOSK is deployed wherever vehicles arrive at an inspection point without an existing identification mechanism.

Dispatch Yards and VDCs

Vehicle distribution centres and dispatch yards where inbound vehicles arrive from multiple transport modes and multiple origin points, without a standardized VIN identification process at the gate or yard entry.

Compound Entry Points

OEM compounds, dealer compounds, and logistics compounds where vehicles enter from carriers and transporters without a gate system that reliably captures VIN at the point of entry.

Port and Terminal Gates

Port terminals and rail ramps where inbound vehicles arrive from vessel or rail without a VIN identification mechanism at the point of offload or gate entry.

Logistics Handoff Points

Transfer points in the logistics chain where carriers, haulers, and operators hand vehicles off between each other without a gate system or existing identification infrastructure in place.

KIOSK Integrates With Your PRISM FootPrint

KIOSK is not a standalone product. It is a PRISM add-on that works within the context of an existing PRISM deployment. Here is how the integration works.

Positioning

Positioning

KIOSK is positioned at the identification points your footprint cannot cover alone — gates, yards, compounds, and handoffs — so VIN capture happens before inspection begins.

Data Pipeline

Data Pipeline

VIN KIOSK captures flows directly into the PRISM data pipeline, where it is associated with every inspection record the footprint subsequently creates for that vehicle. No manual data entry. No secondary reconciliation step. No post-inspection VIN lookup.

Passport Anchoring

Passport Anchoring

Every VIN KIOSK captures becomes the anchor for the Total Vehicle Passport — so POD, TUNL, ARCH, and PRISM Scan records attach to the correct vehicle from the first event forward.

Deployment

Deployment

KIOSK is configured as part of your PRISM deployment — not a separate system. It scales with your footprint across sites and lanes without creating parallel workflows or duplicate records.

Compatible Footprints

Add-ons work alongside every PRISM footprint.

PRISM add-ons are designed to integrate with every fixed footprint in the PRISM family. The Underbody Scanner, Gap and Flush Scanner, and Dent Arch all work with POD, TUNL, and ARCH. KIOSK works with all fixed footprints and with PRISM Scan for mobile handoff identification.
