THINKWARE - Radar Module - Black

About this product

Pair the Radar Module with a compatible Thinkware dash cam to extend its parking surveillance duration while reducing power consumption when set to Energy Saving Mode. The Radar will detect motion and allow the dash cam to prepare to save an event clip. If an impact is detected, a 20 second video (10 seconds before and 10 seconds after the impact) is saved in a dedicated folder on the MicroSD card. When no impacts are detected, the dash cam does not save the footage and resumes Energy Saving Mode.

Features

  • Moon detection

    Adding the optional Radar Module enables the dash cam to detect movement and record events leading to an impact while remaining in Energy Saving mode, so you have video evidence of the whole incident with footage of before and after the impact.

  • Detection distance range

    Approximately 7m (23ft)

  • Thinkware Cloud

    Thinkware Cloud Features are not available while the Dash Cam is in Energy Saving Mode

  • Disclaimer

    The Radar Module does not detect motion smaller than a vehicle. Not every object is assured to be detected.

  • Disclaimer

    Metal Objects may cause the radar to not detect properly. Install Radar Module as far away as possible from metal parts of the rear view mirror/ADAS sensors.

  • Compatibility

    U1000, X1000, Q1000 Dash Cams

    Extra Detection for Thinkware Dashcam

    The additional radar module helps the existing Thinkware dash camera detect movement for parking recordings, and as I can tell, it works well. It basically results in recording events leading up to an "incident" as told by the dash camera's app. It was compatible with my dash camera so I wanted to add it to my installation.
