    Sharing my next project. Already got myself Front View CCD Camera and 5" Color TFT LCD monitor. Testing the two items together.



    Front View CCD Camera displays normal image and without parking lines. This is opposite of Rear View Camera which displays mirrored (reversed) image and with parking lines. CCD sensor provides better image that CMOS sensor. Camera is waterproof and has IR night vision as well.



    The 5" Color TFT LCD monitor has a resolution of 800 x 480 pixels. Other monitors on the market only have 480 x 240 pixels so be aware when buying. The monitor has MENU, + and - buttons at the back. Brightness, Contrast, Color, Aspect Ratio (4:3 or Wide), and Language can be changed or adjusted.





    The monitor has dual AV (RCA) inputs so you can connect 2 cameras. AV1 is the default input. The unit will Auto Power On when video signal is detected and Auto Power Off when no video signal is detected.



    My rear camera is already connected to my Pioneer Head Unit so will just connect front camera to the LCD monitor for now. Maybe later, I might add a side view camera.

    Been also thinking about this.

    Aside from rear camera input, my stone-age XAV-63 has an extra video input, I suppose that can accept feed from a front camera? How can you tell the IR works? My rear camera is *apparently* CCD as I've seen in its label but since it's chinese I'm not sure. It has always been reliable but since I have reverse lights (stock, filament ones), I never wanted any more clarity from the video feed.

    Also, aren't the guide lines integrated to the stereo and not the camera? coz I can adjust my lines within the AV setup.

    The parking lines is integrated with my rear camera. I connected it to my TV and it shows the parking lines.

    My Pioneer HU also has another AV input. But I would need to switch between front and rear video feeds if I connect front camera to the HU. Also, music playback will stop if I switch to AV input.

    sorry but what is the reason for installing a front camera if it is not for recording like a dashcam? i get it for rear cameras because it helps when backing up. pero going forward?

    for one, when parking in tight situations!
    when was the last time we saw our front bumpers while inching forward toward a concrete garage wall?

    If your head unit supports DVR recording via camera input, then yes. Pwede ka magrecord.

    Any shop that installs rear camera can install front camera.
