Professional car camera with 4K recording and parking sensor
This is one of BlackVue's top cameras. The front camera records in Ultra HD and will automatically start recording in a parking lot if something hits your car.
Records in high quality
The camera mounted at the front records in Ultra HD (4K) and the one mounted on the rear window records in Full HD. The front camera has a built-in Sony STARVIS 2 image sensor, developed specifically for surveillance and automotive cameras. The technology lets the camera perform well in low light.
- 4K Ultra HD front (8.4 MP)
- Full HD rear (2.1 MP)
- Front camera: Sony STARVIS 2 image sensor
- Rear camera: Sony STARVIS image sensor
Built-in GPS and Wi‑Fi
The camera has built-in GPS and Wi‑Fi, making it easier for you to access recordings.
The Wi‑Fi connection lets you access the camera wirelessly from an app on your phone or via a computer. From there you can view live footage, download videos, or change settings without removing the SD card from the camera.
The built-in GPS logs your route and speed, so you can easily see where an incident happened.
Parking surveillance
The camera can monitor the car while it's parked. If it detects movement or an impact, it will start recording automatically.
This happens either via the vehicle's ignition signal (ACC) or via the built-in G-sensor — depending on how the camera is connected.
A hardwire cable is included so you can use parking mode without buying extra accessories. If there has been activity around the car while it was off, you'll get a voice notification when you start the car again.
Easy to operate
The camera has a touch sensor that makes it simple for you to start a manual recording if you see something you want to save quickly. There is also a dedicated button to format the SD card directly on the unit.
You’ll be warned if it stops recording
The system monitors the SD card and will alert you if an error occurs. It can also restart itself automatically at intervals to keep things stable. Important recordings are protected from being overwritten.
Power and connections
The camera connects via three wires: GND (ground), B+ (constant power) and ACC (ignition). It supports both 12V and 24V, so it can be used in cars and vans.
Power consumption is approx. 480mA during normal driving and 370mA in parking mode.
Built-in Cloud
With BlackVue Cloud you can access the camera live, receive incident alerts and watch recordings directly on your phone. The feature requires that you purchase and connect a separate LTE module.
App and software
You can use the BlackVue app for both Android and iOS to watch live, download recordings and change settings. It can also be done from a PC or a Mac.
The software supports both Chrome and Safari.
