In today's society, using a DVR has become as natural a process as washing your face in the morning and brushing your teeth. "Karkam M1" is often purchased by motorists.
Registrar culture
Cities are so overloaded with cars that the likelihood of an accident is very high.
It is sometimes difficult for a driver to prove his case, especially when the culprit fled the scene. The presence of video recording helps to reproduce the details of the accident.
A little description
The video recorder "Karkam M1" has a strict design and functionality, including the most popular options for the driver. The core is the popular Ambarella A5 processor in such devices, which allows you to make high-quality video recordings at any time of the day. The wide-angle lens facilitates shooting with a 140-degree field of view. And thanks to WDR technology, it captures car numbers at night without much difficulty. Adjustments are made across the entire width of the movie by lightening the dark areas and darkening the brightest areas. This method allowsshoot video at any time of the day, regardless of the degree of illumination of the site.
The Karkam M1 device has a function that warns about the presence of cameras on the road. There is also the possibility of fixing new areas that were not previously marked on the gadget map. There is also an anti-sleep function used by truckers on long-haul flights.
Excellent appearance (thanks to which the Karkam M1 DVR fits perfectly into the car interior) is far from the only highlight: a 2.7-inch screen allows you to view the captured videos, set the settings in the menu, and thanks to the compact bracket, the product can be installed behind the rearview mirror so as not to interfere with the view.
Reviews of the Karkam M1 video recorder indicate that many motorists are attracted by such features as “turn to the inspector”, a “date and time” stamp, as well as a GLONASS and GPS module, thanks to which the location of the car is tracked.
Cost
Varies in the range from 8 to 10 thousand rubles. For example, Yandex. Market puts this model up for sale for 7,990 rubles, while the price for Karkam M1 in the TechnoSonic store is 10,190 rubles. However, according to search engines, the average cost of a product as of January 1, 2018 is 9999 rubles.
Features

- Anti-radar - the driver is alerted by a signal about approaching speed limits.
- Movement control - functionality that monitors the distance to the dividing strip both on the right and on the left. Warns the motorist if the car is approaching the markings. A very popular setting among truckers, as it prevents falling asleep while driving. However, it often turns off in urban areas due to the presence of a lot of interference (for example, trees), leading to false alarms.
- Compactness is an indisputable advantage of the "Karkam M1" video recorder. Often purchased by owners of economy class cars. These are small in size, because a bulky gadget would obscure the view on the windshield.
- Convenient bracket allows you to rotate the device 360 degrees to capture what is happening in the cabin. For example, communication with a passenger. Often used by taxi drivers to record a conflict situation.
- Removable GPS module - allows you to mark the current coordinate and track the route. It can be very useful for identifying the causes of a traffic accident and determining the degree of guilt of the driver.
- G-sensor - a module that fixes the minute of the accident.
Electronic accelerometer
It is necessary to tell in more detail about how exactly the moment in time when the traffic accident occurred is determined. If the car is in motion, the G-sensor mentioned above captures the time of a sharp increaseload and instantaneous speed reduction. If the vehicle was standing still and a car crashed into it, the accident sensor records the moment of increasing load and speed.
This automatically turns on file protection against overwriting or erasing. The video material itself is moved to a specially allocated memory area. According to reviews of the Karkam M1 DVR, motorists appreciate the presence of an electronic accelerometer.
Pros
The product is very popular. According to reviews of "Karkam M1", the optimal ratio of price and quality ensures a high demand for goods. The positive aspects include (primarily) the design. Presentable appearance is the first sign that the gadget will attract the attention of the buyer.
Car owners note that the advantage is a friendly interface and functionality, which includes only important features. In third place in popularity is the quality of video recording, which is produced without all sorts of freezes and failures, as well as ease of installation in the cabin.
Cons
Alas, no matter how good a device is, there is always a flaw. Most of the reviews about the Karkam M1 are extremely positive, but among the minuses there is a discrepancy between the video recording and the declared Full HD. However, the quality is up to the mark.
Some owners focus on the rapid overheating of the gadget. But there are very few such reviews, perhaps an isolated case or operation in conditionshigh temperature. In the end, the windshield plays the role of a lens, and the black color quickly heats up in the sun, which is why the behavior of the product.
Two or three customers reported that the screen was out of focus when the light went from dark to bright or vice versa. The comment is also single, therefore, when choosing this product, it is better to ask an employee to turn it on and check it.
In conclusion
It should be said that DVRs are in great demand among urban residents. Motorists from rural areas rarely install them due to the low traffic on the roads and, as a result, the low probability of an accident.
The resident of the city prefers to play it safe. In the end, the recording contributes to the rapid establishment of the culprit of the incident, especially if the latter completely denies everything (or completely disappeared in an unknown direction).
Earlier, during the trial of the accident, the video was not evidence and was not considered. Now (after the amendment of May 7, 2016) the material is attached to the file. However, it can be rejected if traces of explicit video editing are detected. Which is also punishable as it is tampering with evidence.
So that the driver is not accused of anything like this, you should remove the flash card and hand it over to the traffic police officer, sealing it in an envelope before that.
The materials of the registrar are also used in unraveling complex criminal cases. For example, a recording from a car parked in a parking lot that recorded riots inparking, will help to restore the details of the incident. In this case, Karkam M1 will become an indispensable assistant.
Reviews of the owners, of course, will help restore the picture as a whole, but in any case, you should be careful and careful on the roads so as not to become a participant in a traffic accident, and even more so an injured person. After all, no decision on compensation for damage from the accident can restore human life.
