Car-specific Rear View Camera Models
PRESS TEXT: SHORT VERSION
Multimedia specialist ZENEC is expanding its accessories
range by 15 car-specific rear view camera models, perfectly
suited for the major European vehicles. These compact
cameras replace the factory license plate lighting unit,
and so fitting could not be easier: simply remove license
plate light unit, install camera, run cable forward into the
cockpit – finished! All cameras produce a sharp, high
resolution image, even under critical light conditions, and
therefore provide a perfect view of all obstructions to the
rear of the vehicle at all times.
ZENEC’s new car-specific cameras can be connected to all
moniceivers, naviceivers and monitors that have a rear
view camera input.

PRESS TEXT: LONG VERSION
Multimedia specialist Zenec is expanding its accessories
range by 15 car-specific rear view cameras that are perfectly
suited for the major European vehicles. The cameras
replace the factory license plate lighting unit, and can be
fitted in just a few minutes. Fitting could not be easier –
no damaging sawing or drilling: simply remove the
license plate light unit, install camera, run cable forward
to the moniceiver or naviceiver – finished! The vehicle retains
its original appearance, the installation being as inconspicuous
as possible. It certainly could not be faster
or easier to retrofit multimedia systems or monitor navigators
with a rear view camera.
Zenec’s new car-specific cameras can be connected to all
moniceivers, naviceivers and monitors that have a rear
view camera input. These fully integrated in-vehicle cameras
deliver a sharp, high resolution image, even under
critical light conditions, and therefore provide a perfect
view of all obstructions to the rear of the vehicle at all
times. As soon as reverse gear is engaged, the camera
switches on and transmits images of the situation at the
rear of the car to the moniceiver or naviceiver display.
This is an enormous help when parking or for vehicles

Zenec uses only the very best components for its cameras:
for example, a very high quality MPEG board, which
guarantees outstanding signal processing – fast and
color noise-free in dim environments.
Beside the signal processing, it is the image sensor itself
that determines the image quality of a camera. The new
Zenec cameras use CMOS sensors as they have less noise
than CCD sensors in poor light. On top of that is the significantly
higher working temperature range of CMOS
technology, which is why it generally has the edge in the
automotive sector. The CMOS sensor from Sharp used by
Zenec ensures sharp images and also works perfectly
trouble-free at very a very frosty -20° C.
With their very high photosensitivity of 0.3 Lux, the new
Zenec cameras enable an optimal view at all times, even
under poor light conditions or at night. Together with the
high resolution, a signal-to-noise ratio > 48 dB and a
wide horizontal viewing angle of 170°, you can always
be sure of an excellent view of the immediate vicinity to
the rear of the vehicle.
