Key Features
- Front camera: 4K UHD (3840×2160 @30fps) with a wide field of view (~170°)
- Rear camera: 1080p with ~120° field of view
- Power: Built-in lithium battery plus solar panel — enables long-term parking monitoring without hardwiring
- Parking mode: Extended standby (reports mention up to ~14 days depending on use and sunlight)
- Sensors & image processing: Sony Starvis sensor + HDR/night enhancements
- Connectivity: 5GHz Wi‑Fi (Wi-Fi 6 support reported) and app control

Pros & Cons
- Pros: Solar-assisted power avoids complicated installs; high-resolution front 4K footage; compact, discreet fit behind the mirror.
- Cons: Rear camera is 1080p (not 4K); real-world battery/solar performance varies by sunlight and usage; more advanced sensors may beat it in low-light.
