Front Camera On at Speed (CanOpener)

[ridl3y]

Does anyone know if this thing works to keep the front camera on when driving faster than 15mph? I've searched everywhere with no luck.

I’ve never seen anyone post about it here or any other forum. They have a 30-day return though so you could try it and send it back if it doesn’t work. Seems expensive just to have the camera on at increased speeds.

I found this a bit confusing …

------DO NOT ORDER THIS IF YOU HAVE THE 360 SYSTEM------

Are they saying a 360 degree camera or the copilot 360 system that we have. I assumed the former but you know what they say about assuming.

But my real question is, what’s the benefit (especially for that price tag)? I mean, if you’re going over 15, you’re looking ahead out the window and not at that small camera, I would think.

edit: and I agree 100% with @Jmuns in next post

This is exactly why it disables itself. They don't want someone trying to drive watching the camera and not the road. It's meant as a tool for off-roading but used in every day life as a parking tool lol.

I read it as 360 cameras.

I wish there was a way to have both cameras record to an SD card while driving, instead of having a dashcam.

I have had this exact idea for years - why this isn't happening is beyond me....

That, and I'd like to remote-into my cameras from the FordPass app on my phone. That would be pretty darn cool if it was like a rolling Ring doorbell camera.

Sounds like a cool hybrid or electric car feature in that case...
