Best of all, it provides peace of mind that you have video evidence in the event of a collision—especially if you’re not at fault.

Designed to enhance road visibility

Gentex created this smart car gadget to improve your vision when you’re on the road, and that includes keeping tabs on passengers. Instead of a dashcam impeding your view with a large design, the Rearview doesn’t block your forward visibility. And it doesn’t have any cords that can get in the way, either.

Record accidents with audio recording capability

Gentex Rearview can capture traffic accidents, and it can shoot videos of a vehicle and even behind your car. This allows you to protect yourself if you’re blamed for an accident that wasn’t your fault. Furthermore, this car gadget has an internal shock sensor. This means it’ll automatically start recording if someone bumps into your car. Therefore, you can obtain the perpetrator’s plate number.

And in the event of a collision, you can download files from the DVR through an internal SD card or smartphone app.
