Rear View Mirror has video camera built in
by James in Audio/Video Gadgets, Automotive GadgetsOften times, automobile accidents boil down to either one man’s word against another or some arbitrary rule that the one driving behind is automatically at fault. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to have video proof of who’s at fault? Well, only if it’s the other guy, that is! But that’s the idea behind this Rear View Mirror Car Camera Recorder.
Check out the video of it recording an accident here.
The video camera is mounted in the rear view mirror and it functions as a blind spot reduction, backup camera, and a DVR. It records to SD card and records not only the video image, but equally important is the time and date. And with SD cards, removal of the video clips to play on your PC is extremely simple. And what’s really cool is that the Rear View Mirror Car Camera Recorder works with your existing rear view mirror as an overlay, so there’s no expensive and time consuming installation process to replace the stock mirror. It just slips right over it.
Other features include 2.5” LCD screen, adjustable lens, recording that automatically begins when you start the car, and auxiliary camera port for optional rear view camera – which is a great idea, especially if you’re driving an RV or pulling a large trailer like a boat or camper.
Cost is about $400, but is currently on sale for $50 off with a 1GB SD card included at Brickhouse Security.

April 16th, 2009 at 11:59 pmGood Day,
I represent the TCB Publishing Group. We are the publishers of Vita Nova, a monthly luxury lifestyle magazine distributed to 10,000 Medical professionals in South Africa. The 100-page magazine is published in a large A4-plus size, printed on environmentally friendly matt paper, and finished with foiling and spot UV varnish on the cover.
We would be very interested to receive more information on Rear view mirror with camera, which we hope to feature in the next edition of Vita Nova, in a section titled “Tech Talk”.
I would appreciate it greatly if you can forward me a press release and some high-resolution images on the above mentioned.
If you can add me to your mailing list for future product releases, or simply for products you which to promote, I will make sure that you get regular exposure in Vita Nova magazine, and depending on the product, perhaps also in some of the other titles in our portfolio.
The TCB Group currently publishes 14 titles, including 3 in-flight magazines and the official guest magazine for The Blue Train, South Africa’s iconic and luxurious train that runs between Pretoria and Cape Town.
Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions.
I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Kind Regards
Herman

My name is Randy Park from 3rdeyecam Company,
We provides Drive Camera safety device that can use for any vehicles for recording inside, outside and audio.
The cameras use motion-sensor technology to record and save footage of accidents and other traffic incidents. The devices are programmed to save recorded data when prompted by an unusual or sudden movement of the bus or driver.
When a driver brakes hard, for example, the system instantly saves a recording that starts eight seconds before and runs four seconds after the incident.
The technology can sense when a bus swerves, when it rolls through a stop sign without halting sufficiently, or when it is struck by another vehicle.
The camera/video will permanently and automatically be recorded. But also it records 24/7, it recycles the recording over and over until if in event occurs.
It also records the time, date, speed and location of the event, where it took place through GPS google map.
We provide the lowest price and our quality is the best compare to other expensive products out there at this moment.
The product name is Janus Drive Camera V2, Which has two cameras, infrared for the nights and audio component. It also has emergency button to be use incase

July 21st, 2009 at 2:45 pmVery cool product–and easy to install too! We just started carrying one w/ two cameras: one on the mirror and a remote one, so a driver can record video in front, turn the camera to keep an eye on passengers, and use the other camera for backing up or keeping an eye on a trailer, etc. No more guessing who’s at fault!
