Thread: Rear View Camera

Well me driving a mid size SUV, I have blind spots too. I decided to go 100% digital with my setup, meaning no mirrors at all. The side mirrors will replaced with custom cameras that make the truck more aero dynamic. My setup is complicated so I dont know if it will work for you. I have 2 screens, one screen replaces the rear view mirror, its a 10.2 rear view screen. Connected to that I have whats called a digital quad processor, which is used for security cameras to show multiple images on a screen. I then set it to split screen and have the right show up on the right side and the left on the left side. The quad processor also has a feature to do trio mode..... were it can show the rear camera in the mainscreen, then 2 little windows pop up on the left and right and show the left and right cameras (Picture in picture). I was originally going to go that route, but then I would have to sit there and switch between PC and cameras to see the left and right, also the smaller the screen the harder it is to see the 2 little windows when using trio mode..... If you go on Ebay you will find alot of Quad Processors, your going to want to go for the smallest one... 4 ports. Pay attention to the pictures that have the remote in the picture also, this will give you an idea on size. The remotes are tiny, if the box is small like the remote, then your good to go. The one I bought is the size of a USB external sound card... Most are 12VDC so it will work in a car application. Only draw back is that 99.9% of the QPs use those weird connections in the back to hook up the cam.... you have to buy adapters (which are cheap) but it adds alot of length to the setup..... Hope this helps in some way.
