Accident-Sensing Dashboard Cameras

The Vava Dash Camera Automatically Saves Important Footage

— January 19, 2017 — Autos
The Vava Dash is a new dashboard camera that's versatile enough to help drivers with both safety and social sharing. The camera is mounted on a 360-degree, swiveling mount, allowing consumers to film either the road or the car's occupants as they see fit.

In terms of safety, the Vava Dash uses impressive tech to beat many competing devices. It films in 1080p with a 140-degree field of vision, meaning that no detail of an accident or encounter will be missed. It also comes with a built-in G-sensor that will activate if the vehicle gets into an accident, automatically saving the footage before and after the impact.

The Vava Dash also has fun features aside from its serious safety. Spinning the camera onto the car's interior, users can make driving videos and send them directly to social media via the connected app.
Trend Themes
1. Accident-sensing Dashboard Cameras - Opportunity for dashboard camera manufacturers to integrate G-sensors that activate in case of accidents to automatically save footage before and after the impact.
2. 360-degree Swiveling Camera Mounts - Opportunity for manufacturers of camera accessories to create more versatile mounts that allow consumers to film either the road or the car's occupants.
3. Social Media Integration for Dash Cams - Opportunity for camera manufacturers to add fun features and social media sharing to their products, making them more appealing to younger generations.
Industry Implications
1. Automotive Technology - Opportunity for companies in the automotive technology industry to create and integrate camera systems that increase safety and provide entertainment for drivers.
2. Consumer Electronics - Opportunity for companies in the consumer electronics industry to create innovative dashboard camera systems that integrate advanced features like G-sensors and social media sharing.
3. Social Media Platforms - Opportunity for social media platforms to integrate with dash cams and allow users to upload driving footage, creating a new content stream for the platform.
