A rearview camera is used to display the rear view on the infotainment screen while driving backward. While the gear shift is set to reverse, the rear view camera is automatically turned on.
The Hyundai rear view camera utilizes an optical lens to capture a wide view, meaning there is little difference between the distance on the screen and the real distance.
Unlike most backup camera setups from other manufacturers, the Hyundai rear view mirror (RVM) camera is mounted on the rear hatch or trunk and behind the badge of the vehicle. As a result, it protects the camera from outdoor elements such as rain, dust, snow, ice, and light contact.
How Do You Use the Hyundai Rear View Camera?
As mentioned, the camera is hidden behind the Hyundai badge on the rear of the vehicle. However, once the gear is shifted to R, the RVM camera immediately pops up and angles itself to provide a wide-angle display on your screen.
The angle is meant to provide the widest angle and slightly downward so that the camera can also capture any objects in the way. The image is recorded in real-time so that drivers receive instantaneous imaging from the rear view.
In fact, the RVM is slightly more complex than led on to believe. If drivers were to see the direct snapshot from the camera's perspective, the imaging would appear in reverse. The system is designed to instantly capture the rear image and send a mirror image to the display screen for drivers to depict what is behind their vehicle accurately.
Once the driver switches gears to park or forward, the RVM camera retreats back behind the Hyundai badge and shuts off. The camera works automatically without installation required and it is easy to use.
Benefits of the Rear View Camera
The main advantage to using the rear view mirror camera is that it provides drivers with visibility to the back of their car. The camera comes in handy, especially when backing out of a garage onto a street or perhaps backing into a parallel parking spot. It's dangerous to turn your head over your shoulder while driving, thus looking at the display screen to see what's behind you is an important safety feature. The RVM camera prevents nearby bystanders and vehicles from getting harmed. Compared to other rear view cameras, the Hyundai technology displays clearer and brighter pictures than other brands do.
