5.3 G-Sensor and Loop Recording

• G-Sensor: The adjustable G-Sensor automatically detects sudden impacts or collisions. When triggered, it locks and saves the current video segment to prevent it from being overwritten, providing crucial evidence in case of an accident.
• Loop Recording: This feature ensures continuous recording by automatically overwriting the oldest unlocked video files when the MicroSD card reaches its capacity. This optimizes storage space and eliminates the need for manual deletion.

With the optional hardwire kit (not included), the dashcam can provide 24/7 parking monitoring. When the vehicle is parked, the camera detects vibrations and automatically turns on to record and save footage until the event concludes, protecting your vehicle even when you are away.

Note: The hardwire kit is required for this function. Please contact support if you need to purchase one.

5.5 Night Vision and WDR Technology

The dashcam is equipped with a large F1.8 aperture and Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) technology. These features optimize light intake and balance exposure, providing clear and stable images even in low-light conditions, tunnels, or at night.
