Super Night Vision 3.0
Record night-time drives with true colours and minimal noise thanks to Thinkware’s latest advancements in low-light recording technology that surpasses its predecessors’ nighttime performance. The dash cam uses a combination of Digital Overlap High Dynamic Range (DOL HDR) and Noise Reduction technology to effectively reduce noise and lens flare effects that typically affect nighttime footage.
PARKING SURVEILLANCE MODE
Parking mode is a feature of dash cams that are either hardwired or use the OBD2 Connector. This allows them to continue recording while your car is parked and turned off. All Thinkware dashcams continuously monitor the health of the vehicle’s battery and will shut down if it detects any issues.
Please note: A hardwire or OBDII cable installation is required for Parking Mode functionality
Motion Detection
Monitor and capture any motion around the vehicle for potential vandalism attempts.
Impact Detection
Monitor any impact to the vehicle while it is parked to catch any hit-and-run driver in the act while you are away.
TIME LAPSE PARKING MODE
Catch any potential bumps, scrapes and other incidents by recording footage from your vehicle when you are not nearby. Timelapse mode records at 2 frames per second (FPS) to reduce the size of the video file. This allows the dash cam to record longer than other dash cams whilst in parking mode.
ENERGY SAVING MODE 2.0
The improved energy mode further reduces power consumption and provides even longer video recording than our original energy-saving and parking modes. When you are away from your car for an extended period of time, energy-saving parking recording is a recommended solution.
When in use, the device will go to sleep and after an impact has been detected by the built-in G-sensor, it will wake up within a second and start recording for the next 20 seconds.
THINKWARE RADAR
Add the optional radar to access even more from your camera’s parking mode. With energy-saving mode, the dashcam will enter sleep mode when in parking mode. When the radar detects motion, the dashcam will power back up. If an impact is then detected, the camera will then save a 20-second clip (10 seconds before impact and 10 seconds after impact) and store this for viewing. If no impact is detected the unit will simply power back down to save your vehicle’s battery.
GPS MAPPING
With GPS, all Thinkware dash cams can record the vehicle’s driving speed and provide its precise location and routes identification on the map. The GPS Tracker helps you to accurately assess the details of the surrounding area. The PC/Mac viewer can then provide you with the vehicle speed and the time of a collision, and the severity of any impacts.
PC / MAC VIEWER
The intuitive and simple-to-use interface of Thinkware Dash Cam allows you easy and convenient viewing of your recorded videos. Through the PC or Mac viewer, you can playback and download recorded videos. You can also change the dash cam settings, format the memory card, or install updates with just a few clicks on the viewer.
High Dynamic Range
Discern even more details whether it’s dusk or dawn thanks to the U1000 PLUS’s HDR technology, which enhances contrast and improves the clarity of all recorded front-view videos. Experience Digital Overlap High Dynamic Range (DOL HDR) and Noise Reduction Technology to effectively minimize noise and mitigate lens flare effects that typically impact nighttime footage.
FORMAT FREE TECHNOLOGY
Avoid corrupt memory cards and the slow process of having to reformat your SD Cards with the free flowing recording system.
One of the most common issues with a Dash cam’s reliability is the SD card, these cards are continuously overwritten and often become corrupt if not formatted often. This normally means that you have to remove the SD card and put it into a computer to reformat it. Thinkware has overcome this vulnerability by making the dashcam pre-allocate the memory, avoiding the need to format the SD card on a regular basis and making the footage easily viewable on our Thinkware viewer software.
HIGH-TEMPERATURE PROTECTION SYSTEM
Protects your dashboard camera from overheating and causing potentially irreversible damage to it or its data.
The specially designed heat discharge construction and the built-in thermal sensor of the dash cam protects the device and its data against intense heat by automatically turning it off to prevent overheating. All Thinkware cameras use a Super Capacitor, designed with Temperature Protection, for an emergency power source in the event of a crash or sudden power loss, allowing the unit to save the last 10 seconds of an incident.
REAR CAMERA (OPTIONAL)
Designed to be mounted inside the vehicle on the rear window facing out. A 156° wide-angle lens captures all footage from behind the vehicle in 2K QHD detail. A great enhancement to parking mode.
