A backup camera is a special type of video camera, which is produced specifically for the purpose of being attached to the rear of a vehicle to aid in backing up, and it is alternatively known as "reversing cameras"or "rear view cameras". The design of a backup camera is distinct from other cameras in that the image is horizontally flipped so that the output is a mirror image. This is necessary because the camera and the driver face opposite directions, and without it, the camera's right would be on the driver's left and vice versa.
What can the backup camera help you? A backup camera typically sports a wide-angle or fisheye lens. While such a lens spoils the camera's ability to see faraway objects, it allows the camera to see an uninterrupted horizontal path from one rear corner to the other. The camera is typically pointed on a downward angle, to view potential obstacles on the ground as well as the position of approaching walls, rather than straight back.In a word, the car backup camera is used to detect activity behind the car and prevent the occurrence of collision.
