Unfortunately, I don't have any more information of a launch date, pricing, or what smartphone platforms will be supported, but know that we'll be keeping our eyes peeled here at Car Tech for the deets as soon as they surface.ĬNET Roadside Assistance is a reader Q&A column where I, Car Tech editor Antuan Goodwin, answer your automotive and car technology-related questions. Valeo's system could work essentially in the same way, only launching automatically when the reverse signal is received from your car. That camera was able to broadcast its video signal to iPhones via an app and to any other smartphone via a browser hack.
I saw a similar technology firsthand when I tested the Ion Air Pro Wifi sports camera earlier this summer. However, instead of sending a video signal via cables to a dashboard display or transmitting a proprietary RF signal to a wireless receiver, the Vue sends a video signal over Wi-Fi that can be received by an app on a smartphone and displayed on the handset's LCD - essentially, that's exactly what you're asking for in your e-mail. This tiny camera installs on a vehicle much like any other rear camera would. Well, Miguel, although there are now plenty of smartphones on the market that will output video (either via Micro-HDMI, MHL, or plain analog video), there aren't any that I'm aware of that can actually accept a video input without significant hackery.Įarlier this year, automotive parts supplier Valeo debuted its Valeo Wireless Vue Wi-Fi Rear Camera at Auto Expo in Delhi.

As many readers will be quick to point out, the other side of this double-edged sword is that the phone can also be a huge distraction itself. Your average smartphone can juggle turn-by-turn directions, audio directions, voice commands, reading text messages aloud, and a host of other entertainment functions, all within the confines of its palm-sized screen.
Many drivers chose to do this by using one of the best multitasking tools known to man: the humble smartphone. Sometimes, it's good to simplify and consolidate these screens down to a more manageable number. Lots of screens demanding more and more of the driver's visual attention. You've got the display for the audio system, sometimes a color screen for navigation, the occasional standalone climate-control display, the monochromatic trip computer/vehicle settings LCD in the instrument cluster, and sometimes the instrument cluster itself is just one big LCD.
Settling into the driver's seat of a modern, 2012 model year automobile means that you'll be facing quite a few LCD screens.
