It has been almost a year since we paid attention to "Mijia Interactive" products. I remember that at this time last year, there was no grand ceremony for the "Mi Family Interaction", and the industry leader Xiaomi did not share a pot of millet porridge. Instead, we will leave the first product (500 MC2 honorary internal tests) to those who like the brand, and let them "comment" on what kind of Internet new generation enterprise "Mijia Interaction" is. This review will introduce you to Meihang's new generation of products with "appearance", "installation", "software" and "live photos".

Unpacking

MC6, as the first product of Mijia Interactive, the new brand of "Meihang", continues the brilliant industrial design of the previous MC2, taking the principle of simplicity and practicality. With a 270 degree rotating lens, it instantly records everything outside and inside the car. From the release of spy photos to the flow of live photos, everyone is excited. Although friends have also launched the same product, the popularity of MC6 is high, The staff of Meihang were surprised!

As a freshman, I will definitely not miss such exquisite IT products. Before zero o'clock on the crowdfunding day, I will not care about the fatigue of colds. I will put paper towels in my nose and wait in front of the computer. I remember that at the moment of zero o'clock, the system had not been sold yet. I was very worried. After about a minute, we waited for many days to complete the record of the first order of crowdfunding and the first payment; Maybe in the eyes of others, it is impossible to deliver and receive the goods first. Maybe there is something unexpected. This kind of first is not advisable.

During the crowdfunding period, I paid attention to Meihang's official QQ group (116705784) every day to see the progress of the project and communicate with the manufacturer's R&D personnel. I hope that after the crowdfunding is completed, the delivery can be faster and smoother. Finally, when the crowdfunding ended, the first delivery information came out, which was not expected by me. After understanding the reason, we know that it is caused by the factory's mass production. All the time, up to now, I think beautiful things need to wait.

It has become a habit to wait anxiously. One day, the unit dispatcher informed me that there was a express delivery. I know my artistic conception blue MC6 is coming

Mijia Interactive Imperial Express - Yunda, violence level, moderate, article stress condition: intact!

This is today's corner, as well as my childlike fellows.

Simple packaging, simple atmosphere

The artistic conception is blue, not ordinary eye-catching

The whole range of accessories reveals different delicacy (newly added cable clamps, saying goodbye to laziness from the beginning, and small crowbars make installation easier)

Message from the interaction of Mi Family to youth - indulge the most beautiful yearning

Precision mold opening is an aesthetic display

Small and delicate (only 9cm upright), as light as a swallow (74g)

Get together and prepare for evaluation

Here are some cute pictures

Because it is small, it can be completely hidden in the rearview mirror

The delicate charging head has dual independent output of 1.0A 2.4A. The recorder can be started as long as 1.0A. The high voltage value is reserved for mobile phones, which are big power consumers.

On the side is the TF card slot and power interface, which can support a maximum 128G card (it needs to be formatted once with APP). Below is the place where light sense and voice double take photos. After the voice "Mijia take photos, Mijia eggplant" is issued, the photographing function can be easily activated, and the wonderful painting surface can be recorded safely and efficiently during the journey. At the same time, it is about 10cm away from the host, and you can also record the wonderful key moment images by waving your hand.

There is "Meihang" MC6 on the way, which will give you a wonderful journey and give you a truth in case of emergency.

Installation

As the saying goes, a good horse needs to be equipped with a saddle so that it can play its best role. The harness of Meihang MC6 is an integrated GPS module+power supply part. I have compared the original harness of the DASH CAM I have seen used; The harness of MC6 is made of thick material with thick diameter and good tensile strength.

This is an important supporting role today. The power cord with GPS module

After the MC6 main engine is connected, the thread head passes through the rearview mirror, goes right along the ceiling to the upper right corner of the front windshield (annual inspection sticker).

Fix the GPS module here, and you can quickly locate without interference.

Carefully pull open the A-pillar trim panel (please note if there is an airbag, and you can also route the line along the door sealing strip), plug the line in and approach the glove box along the A-pillar to the central control edge

After the glove box is disassembled, the thread head passes through the hinge of the glove box from right to left and is fixed inside, and the other end also comes out through the hinge.

Directly into the box of the cigarette lighter, try to fix the harness along the seam to achieve a hidden effect.

Software

Meihang MC6's APP is very versatile. No matter you are a MC1 MC2 MC2P MC3 MC6 MD2 host, you can automatically identify and upgrade the corresponding firmware; Be busy without confusion.

When the MC6 power is turned on, the dynamic melody will sound in about 3 seconds. When the mobile phone WIFI button is turned on, the naming (SSID) of M-number letter combination will be searched. This (SSID) is unique to each machine, and it is needed for maintenance and other purposes. After selecting, enter the default password for the first time: 12345678. Click Connect to connect. Some people ask why they need to enter the password, which is very troublesome. In fact, as long as the connection is successful once, the next time you directly open the "Mijiakan" APP, you can directly connect without entering a password.

even Connected to host After that, the APP will display your host category and the button of live broadcast. Otherwise, please check whether your WIFI is not open.

In fact, after you received the host, Mijia Interactive may have sent the latest firmware package. When you first contact this product, you will definitely encounter the problem of firmware upgrade failure. The following is a simple tutorial for you to upgrade easily.
Connect the host for the first time and let the APP know your model - the mobile phone is disconnected from the host for a short time, open cellular data or WIFI, open the APP, click the last module (Figure 1), click the firmware version, and it will prompt if there is new firmware (Figure 2) - reconnect the host after updating, open the APP, and it will prompt that there is new firmware, After the automatic upgrade is completed, click Confirm to complete the push (Figure 3) - or you can manually upgrade the firmware, click the pinion on the live broadcast interface, enter the setting, and click the recorder version detection (Figure 4) (generally, new firmware will have a red NEW mark).

Here is a brief introduction to the setting bar. What you see is the latest APP, which has been introduced in words like a primary school Chinese teacher. Let me pick a few key points
The hard decoding in Figure 1 is aimed at the downloaded video played by Huawei. If the video is jammed, other models can be turned off by default if they play smoothly.
Figure 2 Parking monitoring This is to give the CUP a sleep command through the lens. As long as there is a dynamic object in front of it, the recording will be started. This function can only be achieved when the vehicle provides normal power. The random wiring harness does not have this function, so it is generally closed by default.
Figure 3 Gesture photography sensitivity. If the default distance is too close, you can put your hand under the host light sensor (within 10cm) to rest. After clicking this button, the system will recognize it again.
Figure 4 Memory card management. If you want to use a 128G card, you must reformat the card here, otherwise it cannot be used (only 128G cards)

Here we will focus on the highlight of APP, which is an extension of GPS module - dynamic video playback map turning function.

First, make sure that your GPS module successfully locates and generates data. The second is about where to download the offline map of your location. Finally, it is necessary to synchronize the travel information to the system (disconnect the host, connect WIFI or cellular data, and pull down the information such as mileage when returning to the travel notes). Open the downloaded video, click Play, and an interesting dual screen map like Figure 3 will be displayed dynamically in real time. Of course, the situation in Figure 4 is caused by the lack of information on the mileage of travel notes.

Real time shooting

In fact, coming to the last chapter is also the link to identify whether Meihang MC6 can work or not; True gold is not afraid of red stove fire and wine, not afraid of deep alley.

I specially selected a rainy weather. From color to sharpness to distortion, Meihang MC6 did not disappoint me. The enlarged screenshot shows that the vehicle license plate information can be identified within 10 meters, the driving scene information can be identified within 15 meters, and the 156 degree wide angle lens distortion is acceptable.

Another two live photos are compared with those of a friend. Meihang MC6 can restore color without distortion and violence.

End 

Although the above evaluation only represents my personal experience, I believe that the purchase of the DASH CAM is not for the purpose of seeing the target license plate (which is the responsibility of the traffic police), but the most important thing is to restore the truth stably and truly. In terms of the cost performance of MC6, I think Mijia Interactive is ahead of other products of the same level. It depends on sincere communication with users, and depends on the continuous support and attention of users. yes ME Only then Home Let's continue to look forward to Meihang's growth; Focus on Meihang's strongest MD2 Exchangeable camera lens The birth of the product. thank you!
