Aside from the debut of Sentry Mode and also Dog Mode, Tesla’s newest software upgrade also contained a welcome improvement to the company’s built-in dashcam attribute, permitting vehicles to capture videos from their unwanted cameras. This can be a noteworthy update over the feature’s first iterations, which depended upon the video feed in the Tesla Model S, X, and Model 3’s narrow forward-facing camera.

The current update to Tesla’s dashcam function reinforces the security capabilities of their vehicle maker’s vehicles. With records from the side cameras, Tesla owners would have the ability to have records of events that occur in their vehicles areas. In instances where a Tesla gets involved with a accident the video recordings from the cars’ side cameras would prove invaluable.

Tesla’s launch notes for its dashcam improvements clarify the new attribute as follows.

“Dashcam can now record and save video footage s facet cameras in addition to the camera that is narrow. As usual, the Dashcam icon will be displayed with a red dot. Tap the icon to save video clips that are 10-minute or press and hold to pause recording. ”

Along with side camera capabilities, Tesla’s dashcam has grown into one of those systems available on the marketplace, considering that unmanned systems typically record videos in front and rear of a car. Some are inclined to lean on the side that is unwieldy, which makes the cabin seem a bit cluttered when they are set up, although Negative cameras are available from aftermarket dashcam manufacturers. In contrast, Tesla’s facet camera recording attributes blend in perfectly with the automobile itself, considering the cameras used for the machine are built-in to the cars’ outside.  

It must be mentioned that Tesla’s dashcam system is going to be improved further later on. It might not be too long before the company’s electric cars are able to capture videos also. This type of assumption appears to be likely, considering the newly released Sentry Mode already records videos from each one of the electric cars’ external cameras when empowered. When this happens, Tesla’s electric cars will roll off the factory floor equipped with among the best surround dashcam solutions.

Tesla’s dashcam has proven helpful in a number of circumstances. Last October, a Model 3 proprietor was able to make use of footage from his automobile to prove he was not at fault following a nasty road accident. More recently, a Tesla proprietor was able to use video records from his electric vehicle ’s built-in dashcam to help spot a man who attacked him following a road rage incident.

Tesla’s newest software upgrade appears to be rolling out to members of their company’s early access program. With this in mind, Tesla owners can expect the firmware upgrade to be released to their own vehicles.
