Features and Benefits of Rear-View Camera Systems
- Rear-View Camera aids in reducing the risk of backup accidents, especially for vehicles with limited rear visibility and adds the convenience associated with hooking up to boats, RVs and utility trailers.
- Rear-View Mirror Display - major safety and convenience feature developed by Gentex is a video display located inside the auto-dimming rear-view mirror. When paired with a backup camera, the display shows a real-time view of the rear of the vehicle. The display appears through the mirror glass automatically when the vehicle is shifted into "reverse" and disappears when the vehicle is shifted into any other gear. In addition to automatically detecting and eliminating dangerous headlamp glare from rearward approaching vehicles, the auto-dimming mirror makes backing up safer and easier. The LCD display is driven by a camera located at the rear of the vehicle, and is displayed on the left side of the mirror.
- Alternatively, a dash-mounted LCD monitor can be used to display images from the back-up camera. The monitor will turn on when the vehicle is shifted into reverse.
- A variety of aftermarket in-dash car stereo head-units feature a rear-view camera input and provide a larger display.
- In some instances, rear-view camera can be integrated into the OEM radio display. Give us a call to check compatibility.
