Reversing cameras are simply called reversing cameras

The reversing safety camera offers reversing assistance and usually requires a screen, so we recommend that you take a look at the range of reversing camera kits.

The rear view camera is a special type of video security camera designed specifically to be mounted on the rear of the vehicle to assist in turning a car, motorhome, tractor, truck, excavator, combine harvester and other working machinery. With the rear view camera we avoid obstacles, blind spots, points when driving backwards. We accept the image from the camera on the screen, usually wired and recently also wireless, although some advise against it, there are many pluses of easy installation of a wireless reverse camera.

The design of the rear camera differs from other surveillance cameras in that the image is horizontally inverted, in other words mirrored. This is necessary because the camera and the driver are in opposite directions, and without it, the image would be displayed on the driver's left and vice versa. The mirror image allows the vehicle to be oriented. A security camera typically uses a wide-angle lens. While such a lens reveals the camera’s ability to see distant objects, it allows it to see a continuous horizontal path from one rear corner to another. The rear view camera is usually directed downwards to see any obstacles on the ground, as well as the position of the approaching walls and docks, instead of straight back.

Safety reversing cameras are becoming more common in vehicles towing trailers, such as motorhomes. Recently, with the increasing popularity of DVD players and GPS navigation systems to help justify the cost of adding a color LCD to the driver's seat, they have become much more common, often available as factory accessories on standard coaches and sports cars. as well as accessories. Inside the vehicle, the display is usually wired to automatically detect when the transmission is set in the opposite direction, display the safety view, while while driving it shows a map, driving direction (or other content).

Reverse cameras, also known as backup cameras or parking cameras, are devices that are installed on the rear of a vehicle and used to enhance safety and facilitate maneuvering during reverse driving or parking.

 

The main purpose of reverse cameras is to provide drivers with better visibility of the area behind the vehicle, which is typically a blind spot when relying solely on rearview mirrors. Reverse cameras are equipped with a small camera mounted on the rear of the vehicle and a display screen, typically located on the dashboard or rearview mirror.

 

The advantages of using reverse cameras include:

 

Enhanced Safety: Reverse cameras provide drivers with improved visibility of the surroundings of the vehicle during reverse driving. This reduces the risk of collisions with pedestrians, other vehicles, bicycles, or other obstacles that may be in the path.

 

Easier Parking: Reverse cameras greatly facilitate the parking process. With the display on the screen, drivers can accurately determine the distance from obstacles and avoid potential damage to the vehicle or other objects while maneuvering in tight parking spaces.

 

Smoother Maneuvering: During reverse driving or maneuvering in tight spaces, such as narrow alleyways or complex parking lots, reverse cameras help drivers in better estimating distances and providing better guidance in executing maneuvers.

 

Obstacle Detection Assistance: Reverse cameras often include additional features such as audible warnings or visual distance displays. This helps drivers in detecting approaching obstacles and reduces the possibility of accidents.

 

When choosing a reverse camera, several factors should be considered, such as:

 

Image Quality: Select a camera with high resolution, good color reproduction, and good visibility even in low light conditions.

Field of View: Cameras with a wide field of view provide a broader perspective of the vehicle's surroundings and facilitate distance estimation and maneuvering.

Installation and Connectivity: Check if the camera is easy to install and if it is compatible with the existing vehicle system.

Waterproofing: To ensure durability and reliable operation, choose a camera that is waterproof and weather-resistant.

Reverse cameras have become popular aftermarket accessories in vehicles, as they improve safety and facilitate maneuvering during reverse driving. With the proper selection and installation of a reverse camera, drivers can take advantage of the numerous benefits they offer.
