Carleader Expands Vehicle Safety Solutions with Compact 150° Starlight Front & Rear Camera

Carleader Expands Vehicle Safety Solutions with Compact 150° Starlight Front & Rear Camera. Not every vehicle camera installation has enough space for a conventional camera housing.  To address this requirement, Carleader developed a compact front and rear vehicle camera with a camera diameter of only 28mm. The small housing makes it easier to integrate into vehicle bumpers, body panels, and other locations where installation space is limited. 

One Camera, Multiple Vehicle Monitoring Applications

Rather than being limited to a single installation position, this camera can be configured for different vehicle monitoring tasks. Mirror and non-mirrored image options allow it to work as either a front-facing or rear-facing camera.

This makes the same camera platform suitable for:

• Front bumper camera
• Rear bumper camera
• Backup camera
• Reversing camera
• Blind spot monitoring
• Parking assistance
• Truck and bus surveillance

For installers and distributors, this flexibility makes the Starlight Front Rear Camera with 150° Wide Angle suitable for a wider range of vehicle projects.

1. See More Around the Vehicle with Up to 150° Wide-Angle Coverage

A wider viewing area can be particularly valuable when monitoring the area immediately in front of or behind a large vehicle. The camera provides 135° viewing angle with CVBS/AHD720P and up to 150° with AHD1080P, helping drivers gain broader visibility around the vehicle. The wide-angle design can be used for monitoring areas that are difficult to see from the driver's normal position, making it suitable for vehicle blind spot monitoring, bumper cameras, parking assistance, and commercial vehicle safety systems.

2. Starlight Color Night Vision for Low-Light Monitoring

Nighttime visibility is another important consideration for front and rear vehicle cameras. The camera features Starlight Night Vision with color imaging and a minimum illumination of 0.5 Lux, helping retain useful color information in low-light driving and parking environments. Instead of focusing only on infrared illumination, the starlight imaging technology is designed to provide more natural color images when ambient light is limited, making it useful for nighttime vehicle monitoring.

3. Flexible Video Options for Different Vehicle Systems

The camera supports CVBS, AHD720P, and AHD1080P configurations, allowing it to be matched with different vehicle monitors and video systems. PAL/NTSC options are also available, giving installers additional flexibility when integrating the camera into existing vehicle electronics.

4. Built for Exterior Vehicle Applications

Although the camera has a compact 28mm housing, it is designed for demanding exterior vehicle applications. Its IP69K waterproof rating provides protection against water and dust, while the operating temperature range of -20°C to +75°C supports use in different outdoor vehicle environments.

Where Can This Wide-Angle Vehicle Camera Be Used?

The compact design and flexible image configuration make the camera suitable for a variety of applications, including:

• Truck Front View — monitor areas directly in front of heavy vehicles.
• Van Rear View — provide additional visibility when reversing or parking.
• Blind Spot Monitoring — cover areas that are difficult for drivers to observe directly.
• Parking Assistance — provide a wider view around the vehicle during low-speed maneuvering.
• Fleet Vehicle Monitoring — integrate with vehicle camera systems and mobile DVR equipment.
• Commercial Vehicle Security — add additional visual coverage to transportation and logistics vehicles.

The Starlight Front Rear Camera with 150° Wide Angle is designed around a simple idea: small installation footprint without sacrificing viewing coverage. With its 28mm compact housing, up to 150° viewing angle, starlight color night vision, CVBS/AHD compatibility, mirror/non-mirror options, and IP69K protection, the camera can be configured for different vehicle safety and monitoring projects. For vehicle camera distributors, fleet solution providers, truck and bus integrators, and aftermarket installers, it offers a flexible platform that can be adapted to different front, rear, bumper, and blind-spot monitoring requirements.
