What does it take to build a successful mobile ADAS calibration business?

For the team at Road Ready Auto Techs, it started with recognizing where the industry was headed, choosing the right equipment, getting hands-on training, and building strong relationships with local collision shops.

Today, Road Ready performs approximately 30–35 calibrations per month using their Autel IA700, with plans to continue expanding their business across Massachusetts.

Read their story and see how Tyler Lu, Kevin Nuñez, and Dennis Mezquita turned an opportunity in ADAS calibration into a growing mobile business.

A successful ADAS Calibration begins before the calibration routine starts. It begins with accurate target placement. The MA800 combines broad vehicle coverage and laser-guided target positioning with integrated validation to simplify setup and deliver accurate, repeatable calibrations in the shop or on the road—all in a lightweight, portable system.

Every once in a while, we get to put together a “best in class” guide, and this is definitely one of those times.

If you’re handling ADAS calibrations in your shop, you already know the technical work is only part of the challenge. The rest is making sure required procedures are identified early, properly documented, and built into the repair workflow.

In our latest deep dive, we break down how shops can leverage Revv ADAS to identify hidden gaps in their calibration process, streamline documentation, and build a more reliable, profitable ADAS workflow.

Whether you’re already using Revv or exploring ways to optimize your calibration operations, there’s something in here for your shop.

The B target (also commonly called the generic radar target, radar reflector, or radar cone) works for most manufacturers, but Mazda is the exception.
In this Calibration Corner Quick Tip, Rob explains why Mazda requires the factory target, why the generic B target won't calibrate, and how using the correct target can save you from chasing a problem that isn't really there.
Choosing the right ADAS calibration target is a small step that can save a lot of time.

Hunter or Autel? It’s the question we answer every day at Applied Automotive Technology. 🛠️

Both systems perform accurate calibrations, but they take very different paths to get there—one starting from mechanical alignment, the other from deep electronic diagnostics.

We just published a major refresh of our Hunter or Autel Comparison Guide, adding brand-new insights on pricing, shop space flexibility, and how to keep more calibrations in-house without over-investing.

If you’re evaluating ADAS equipment for your collision center, glass shop, or repair facility, take 4 minutes to check out the revised breakdown. 👇

Good calibration documentation does more than complete the repair file. It helps your shop support insurance reimbursement, reduce liability exposure, answer questions more easily and maintain a consistent, well-controlled ADAS workflow from intake through final verification.
