In recent years, with the continuous improvement of living standards, cars have gradually become the most important means of transportation in families, and many problems have followed. The crowded roads and the uneven level of drivers are often the cause of many traffic accidents. The determination of responsibility has always troubled many driver friends. I believe that for most car owners, In addition to the road traffic camera, the most direct evidence of accident liability is the vehicle's tachograph. It can even be said that the DASH CAM has gradually become a must for all car owners.

360 DASH CAM is an intelligent hardware launched by 360. In addition to the ordinary version of the DASH CAM, 360 has launched a rear view mirror version of the DASH CAM. Compared with ordinary tachographs, the outer package of the recorder can be expressed in terms of size. The package is made of environment-friendly kraft paper, and the overall design is very simple. The front side is the model of the product, and the back side is the basic technical parameters and other information.

Although I had known in advance that the DASH CAM was a rearview mirror version, the moment I opened the package, I was still shocked by the huge appearance of the DASH CAM. In addition to the recorder, the on-board power supply and data cable for power supply are also provided for fixing the rubber strap.

The installation of the tachograph can be easily realized through simple operating instructions.

The DASH CAM provides a long enough data line, which can be installed directly from the power supply through the side baffle through the top, and the length of the wire can fully meet the use needs.

In terms of power supply, the common input voltage of DC12V and DC24V is adopted, which can be used not only for household cars, but also for freight cars. However, the author was slightly surprised that the vehicle power supply provided by 360 Company had only one USB port output. After occupying the vehicle power output port, it would be impossible to supply power to other devices. Therefore, the author had to give up this vehicle power supply in the actual use process.

In order to facilitate the installation of data cable, the product provides a special cable management skid, through which the data cable can be conveniently arranged.

Before removing the protective film, the rearview mirror version of 360 DASH CAM is an enlarged rearview mirror. The product adopts the black frame design commonly used in rear-view mirror products.

Some precautions of the product are printed on the protective film.

The left side of the recorder is the gesture photographing sensing area, which can easily capture pictures through gestures.

The input and other interfaces of the product are located at the top. In addition to the MicroUSB for power supply, the TF card slot and the EXT input interface are also provided. At present, the official instructions for this function expansion interface are not provided. We look forward to the update of firmware or related accessories in the future.

The power supply and function keys are located below the recorder, which is convenient for the driver to operate manually during daily use.

The back of the tachograph is the fixed position of the product and the camera position.

The 360 mark is below the center of the rear side, and the outer frame of the mark is the style of the tachograph.

The camera adopts five high-definition spherical lenses and night vision imaging technology, which can clearly record driving routes even at night. At the same time, since the rear-view mirror needs to be adjusted according to the driver's own requirements, in order to obtain a better angle, the spherical design is adopted at the camera, and the best shooting angle and shooting effect can be obtained by rotating the camera.

The reset button of the product is located at the top of the rear side. In practical experience, it is not convenient to use RESET at this position after installation. I hope the manufacturer can consider setting RESET on the front panel later.

The tachograph is very convenient to fix. Instead of pasting or removing the original rearview mirror, it is installed in the form of a strap. The way to complete the removal and installation is face to face. Any driver can easily complete the installation process.

Through the tool, it is very convenient to install the power supply line inside, avoiding the open line and realizing the hidden installation of the power supply line.

The size comparison between the original Toyota Weichi rear-view mirror and the 360 recorder shows that the rear-view mirror is more than one circle larger than the original rear-view mirror.

The installation of rear-view mirror can be easily realized through the strap.

The actual effect picture after installation shows that the rearview mirror has a larger visual area and wider vision than the original rearview mirror.

During daily driving, the recorder's image is turned off by default, which can be awakened by the power button below and other relevant function settings or emergency video shooting can be achieved by pressing the button.

When the protective film is removed from the rear-view mirror, the actual experience effect is very good. The mirror surface is flat. When the LCD display is turned off, the overall consistency is very good, and the rear-view mirror function is good. Whether observing the interior or exterior, the effect is amazing.

The installation process of the recorder can be completed by starting the machine and following the guidance.

The 360 recorder provides a five inch full-color display screen in the middle. Although the resolution is only 854 * 480, it is enough for the recorder. The tachograph can be set by pressing the buttons at the bottom of the display screen, and can also be connected to the mobile phone APP through WiFi. Follow the prompts on the display screen and the mobile phone APP to realize the foolproof connection process. In order to record data safely, you need to set the password of the recorder and other related information.

The design of the DASH CAM APP page is very simple. The upper part is the display screen of the DASH CAM, the lower part is for recording short videos and taking pictures, and the middle part is for selecting videos and pictures. The video is divided into daily recording video and emergency video. The dash cam has collision detection function, including parking monitoring or accidental collision and other videos will be recorded in the emergency video. Photos are displayed through local pictures and recorder pictures, and the download speed of pictures and videos is very powerful.

The recorder's APP has the video clip sharing function. In addition to the sharing of accidental collisions, if you encounter beautiful scenery, you can also choose to share pictures or videos to everyone.

In terms of taking pictures, the DASH CAM provides a very convenient gesture shooting function, which can be achieved by gently brushing. However, the product does not provide voice shooting function. The author personally likes the voice shooting function of Meihang DASH CAM, and hopes to consider adding this function in the late 360.

As a tachograph, the most important aspect is naturally the recording condition during driving. The daytime video picture recording in sunny days can not explain the problem too much.

The city where the author is located is a place with relatively serious pollution. The dust generated by a large number of surrounding coal mines and a large number of emissions of vehicle exhaust make the weather often gray. In the gray and cloudy afternoon, the DASH CAM is very good at photographing the vehicle conditions on both sides. Basically, the license plate and other information in the three lanes of one to two parking spaces can be clearly photographed.

The tachograph is equipped with 500mAh lithium battery, which can monitor the vehicle when parking. When the tachograph detects collision or other abnormal vibration of the vehicle body, it will automatically open the emergency video recording function, which is convenient for users to access.

The shooting effect of the DASH CAM at night is also very powerful. The license plate numbers on both sides and in front can be clearly seen.

The video above is the driving video shooting effect of the DASH CAM in the daytime and at night. Except for combining the daytime and nighttime records into one video, no other processing is carried out. The tachograph generates a recording video every minute. By default, the recording file is slightly larger than 80MB. Therefore, even an 8GB memory card is sufficient for the use of the tachograph in general driving. Of course, it is better to use a large capacity. After all, the video can be retrieved for a longer time.

Summary

360 DASH CAM rear-view mirror version adopts a strap installation method, which can achieve integrated installation without removing the original rear-view mirror. The installation is very convenient. The combination of the DASH CAM and rear-view mirror is better for daily use. At the same time, its oversized rear-view mirror design is clearer than the original rear-view mirror, with larger visual field and higher safety factor, With WiFi, you can easily connect with your mobile phone and share. However, the author regrets that this version does not have the GPS function, and hopes that future versions can provide the electronic dog and voice navigation functions.
