To answer this demand, VIOFO has released T130 3CH, A139 PRO 3CH, WM1 in past two years and today they're introducing the most innovative dashcam design, VS1, as being the sleekest, the smartest dashcam packed with Sony STARVIS 2 image sensor.

This discreet appearance helps maintain the aesthetics of a car's dashboard. Say goodbye to bulky gadgets that disrupt the driving experience – VS1 hides away neatly behind rear-view mirrors, guarding the maximum safety on the road 24/7 while being a purely interference-free dashcam.

2K 1440P Video Recording

As a single channel recording dashcam, VS1 is equipped with Sony's latest STARVIS 2 IMX675 image sensor, providing clearer and more detailed footage in exceptional 2K 1440P image clarity regardless of day or night. Image clarity can be always crucial for identifying license plates, road signs, or other critical details in the recorded video. In the event of an accident or incident, high-resolution footage serves as more reliable evidence. It can provide clearer details of the event, potentially assisting insurance claims or legal proceedings.

Sony STARVIS 2 Image Sensor

The Sony STARVIS 2 tech uses unique processing technology to increase the area of the light-receiving unit despite pixel size limitations, resulting in a wide dynamic range in a 1/2.8-type 5.12 megapixels format. This design delivers a much wider dynamic range, approximately 2.5 times that of the STARVIS pixel of the same size, bringing much less noise and motion blur during day & night recording. It can record images accurately without overexposure even in situations such as nighttime roads or tunnel entrances/exits with large changes in brightness.

HDR (High Dynamic Range) technology enhances the dashcam's ability to capture clear and detailed footage in low-light or nighttime conditions, which ensures that the recorded video retains crucial details even in darkness. Built in image sensor IMX675 with larger pixels makes the HDR tech work more effectively in VS1 dashcam to balance extremely bright and dark areas so as avoiding over exposures and accurately catching license plates at night.
