How to choose the installation location of the driving recorder lens?
As an important piece of equipment for vehicle safety, the driving recorder lens's installation position is crucial to the shooting effect and field of view.
The location of the dash cam lens plays an important role in recording accidents, capturing evidence, and providing driver assistance functions. Proper mounting position ensures full field of view coverage and avoids blocking the driver's view. Here are some suggestions for choosing where to mount your dash cam lens:
1. Above the rearview mirror: This is one of the most common installation locations. Mounting the dash cam lens above the rearview mirror provides a wide field of view, covering the rear and sides of the vehicle. This mounting position also reduces interference with the driver's line of sight and provides clear rear video.
2. Center of windshield: Mounting the dash cam lens in the center of the windshield provides the best coverage. This mounting position captures the front and rear of the vehicle without blocking the driver's view. However, it is important to note that when installing, make sure there is enough clearance between the lens and the windshield to avoid damaging the device in the event of a collision.
3. Above the license plate: Mounting the dashcam dual-lenses above the license plate can provide better coverage, especially at night or in bad weather conditions. This mounting position avoids blocking the license plate and ensures that both the front and rear are captured. However, it should be noted that local traffic regulations must be observed during installation to avoid violating relevant regulations.
4. Center of the roof: Mounting the dashboard camera lens in the center of the roof provides the widest field of view coverage without blocking the driver's view. This installation position is suitable for scenes that require panoramic recording, such as when reversing or passing through narrow roads. However, it is important to note that the device must be stable during installation and avoid falling during driving.
