Reversing Camera Kit
Car Reversing Cameras
Today, reversing no longer has to be a painstakingly slow process. With as little as $250, you can up your reversing game and navigate your way out of tight parking situations. Wondering how? This is largely due to a piece of technology that is slowly but surely becoming the norm in Australian vehicles: car reversing cameras.
Types of Car Reversing Camera
There are different types of reversing cameras. Whereas the installation of some car reversing camera systems is quite easy and can be done by the driver, others will require professional installation.
1.Wireless reversing cameras
These reverse camera kits consist of only two parts; a camera and a monitor. The camera sends the image wirelessly to the monitor. Since they do not involve connecting wires, they are the simplest car reverse camera systems to install and are therefore popular among DIY enthusiasts.
2.Mountable screen systems
Mountable screen systems have large screen sizes, and the monitor of such a reverse camera kit is mounted on the dash or sun visor. The only challenge of having a mountable screen system is that the size of the screen may impede your vision or access to the car’s controls.
3.Rear view mirror systems
This system is usually mounted on the rear view mirror where an integrated screen replaces the existing mirror. Nonetheless, the small size of the monitor can be challenging for some users.
4.Integrated units
These are common in vehicles that come with a pre-installed reverse camera kit. They are integrated into the vehicle navigation or entertainment system with the screen on the dash or console.See more at Reverse Camera
Wireless Reversing Camera More Information
These are the four types of car reversing cameras. Although they will mostly do the job, they are sometimes used together with reversing sensors and reverse warning alerts. Reversing sensors use warning tones to alert the driver on objects on the vehicle’s path. On the other hand, reverse warning alerts emit an audible warning to alert other people that the car is about to reverse.
How do Car Reversing Cameras Work?
A car reversing camera system largely consists of two parts, a camera(s) mounted at the rear and a display on the dashboard. Behind the system is a simple idea: When you change into reverse gear, the camera(s) automatically turn on and send an image to the LCD monitor to show you what is behind your vehicle.
As simple as this idea sounds, it is executed in a sophisticated manner. Usually, a typical camera captures a reversed image; the left is captured as right and the right as left. Therefore, rather than feed you a direct image, the camera sends a mirror image to the display monitor to give you the correct orientation.
Where are Reversing Cameras Mounted?
These cameras are normally installed where they can provide the best view of the area immediately behind your car. They are usually hidden, downfacing, and you can find them in the following areas depending on the type of vehicle;
·Near the license plate
·Bumper
·Rear trim pieces
·Boot lid
·Tailgate.
