    Thats absolutely false; most manufacturers use the same short-wave blind spot monitoring frequencies; it just so happens some have a “long throw” opposed to a “short”but the govt has limited this in newer vehicles due to inference with police radars; not necessarily the type of vehicle, but the year, and the “on detection pop “ radar detectors are a lot more effective and is what you’re looking for. Remember you get what you pay far😉

    Got a question, new to this, and recently bought a cheap 30$ 3ch setup. Yeah I know, but I don't have a lot of extra cash so el cheapo we go. My question is: Why has no one made a dash cam with Starvis 2 for the front, Starvis 1 (or similar but cheaper) with a super wide or 360 for internal (similar build like the N4's) with options for a similar second module for the rear? 3 to 4 cameras, in two simple modules, less cables, less mess, and surprisingly decent coverage. If a third module with a 360 lens, that could be mounted in the middle of ceiling for those extra tricky angles. With some clever software it could have buffering and segment video into 2 or 3 decent combined footage clips. one for each of the front and rear and a clever way to combine the front and rear internal to the 360 center (or not if it's not there.)I trying to think what would take the least amount of processing power, several videos or one big 4K or 8K clip baking all the cameras in. Either way, any solutions like that? Or coming?

      @@VortexRadar Yeah... I haven't slept... Sorry. Anyone that makes/or are planning to make a cheaper dashcam, that uses starvis 2 for its from and rear cameras, while using fisheye or 360 lenses on the interior lens? Q2: With some simple programming there should be an easy way to record all cameras to a single 4K or 8K file, but I dot know which one would be less taxing on the system, spilt video files for each camera, or one single file (4K or 8K) with all the videos baked into one file. What is your take on this as well? Q3: Watching you recaps of dashcams for 2024, what would you say/want in a ultimate dashcam? I postulated a 3 or 4 camera setup with a front and rear starvis sensors( normal lenses), one fisheye or 360 lens for the interior and maybe a fisheye in the ceiling placed in the middle of the car (or over the passenger seats) to help with viewing angles out on the sides. Your takes on this to mitigate cable spaghetti and not warrant a huge premium on device CPU cost? Hope this clears things up.

  • @prestonm.64
    @prestonm.64 День тому

    5:28 those “weird lines” are either the defroster or an antenna on the back glass. You can tell the lines curve with the rear glass which makes it very improbable that it would be a hardware/software issue. In the next shot, when you compare it to the Viofo, you can still see those lines (proving it’s not the fake 8k dashcam), but they are blurry; this is because the Viofo is an actual good dashcam that doesn’t focus on foreground elements.

    • @VortexRadar
      @VortexRadar День тому

      Sigh. I didn’t do a good job of pointing them out. I am NOT talking about the defroster lines. I noticed they’re less obvious, and if you’re watching on a phone, it can be harder to see them come and go real quick and all you’ll notice are the defroster lines. Next time I’ll do a better job of pointing them out because you’re not the first person to misunderstand what I was referring to.

I hope that for their sake they do something about it because news spreads fast,they just might be digging their own grave and pushing customers away from all corners of the world with their careless actions…
