Carleader Launches Wide Angle Wing Mirror Camera for Truck Blind Spot Monitoring and Commercial Vehicle Safety

Carleader bring a Wide Angle Wing Mirror Camera for Truck Blind Spot Monitoring and Commercial Vehicle Safety. Large commercial vehicles have a visibility challenge that passenger cars do not always face. Long vehicle bodies, large side areas and complex operating environments can create additional areas that drivers need to observe when changing lanes, turning, reversing or maneuvering in confined spaces. For this reason, Truck Cameras, Side View Cameras, Blind Spot Cameras and Vehicle Monitoring Cameras are increasingly becoming important components of modern commercial vehicle safety systems. Carleader's new Wide Angle Wing Mirror Camera for Truck Blind Spot Monitoring with Day Night Vision is designed specifically for this type of application. Rather than functioning as a conventional rear camera, the CL-817 is positioned around the vehicle's wing mirror or side mirror area to provide an additional electronic view of the vehicle side and rear-side environment.

What Is a Wing Mirror Camera?

A Wing Mirror Camera is a vehicle camera designed to be installed around the wing mirror or side mirror position of a vehicle. It can provide an additional camera image alongside the conventional mirror view, helping create a wider visual monitoring system for trucks and commercial vehicles.

The Carleader CL-817 can therefore be used as a:

• Wing Mirror Camera
• Side Mirror Camera
• Truck Mirror Camera
• Vehicle Side Camera
• Truck Blind Spot Camera
• Commercial Vehicle Camera
• HD Vehicle Camera

Depending on the system configuration, the camera can be connected to an in-cab monitor, DVR, MDVR or other vehicle video monitoring equipment. This makes the product relevant not only to individual truck owners but also to fleet operators, vehicle manufacturers, aftermarket installers and commercial vehicle camera system integrators.

From Truck Cameras to Complete Vehicle Camera Systems

A single camera is rarely enough for a large commercial vehicle. A modern Truck Camera System may combine several viewing positions: Front View Camera + Wing Mirror Camera + Rear View Camera

For a larger vehicle, additional side cameras can also be added. The CL-817 is designed to work as one component within this type of Multi-Camera Vehicle System.

For example:

• Front Camera

Monitors the area ahead of the vehicle.

• Wing Mirror Camera

Provides additional side and blind-spot visibility.

• Rear View Camera

Monitors the rear area during reversing and maneuvering.

• Vehicle Monitor

Displays the camera images inside the cab.

• DVR / MDVR

Can be added when video recording or fleet monitoring is required.

This means the Truck Mirror Camera can become part of a complete Commercial Vehicle Camera System rather than being treated as an isolated accessory.

AHD1080P Brings HD Video to Commercial Vehicle Monitoring

The CL-817 supports three video formats: CVBS / AHD720P / AHD1080P. This is important because commercial vehicle fleets often contain vehicles equipped with different generations of camera equipment.

An older system may require CVBS, while a newer HD Vehicle Camera System may use AHD720P or AHD1080P. The AHD1080P version allows the CL-817 to be used as a 1080P Truck Camera, 1080P Side View Camera or 1080P Commercial Vehicle Camera when higher-resolution video is required. This compatibility also allows system integrators to match the camera with different AHD Monitors, Rear View Monitors, Vehicle DVRs and Mobile DVRs.

Day and Night Vehicle Camera for 24-Hour Operation

Commercial vehicles do not operate according to daylight hours. A logistics truck may leave before sunrise. A bus may operate late into the evening. A delivery vehicle can spend part of its working day in bright sunlight and another part in poorly illuminated loading areas. The CL-817 therefore incorporates an automatic IR-Cut day/night switching function. The camera automatically switches between day and night modes according to lighting conditions. It also provides 0.01 LUX minimum illumination with 5 LEDs, supporting low-light vehicle monitoring.

Mirror and Non-Mirrored Images for Different Installation Positions

A camera installed on the left side of a vehicle may require a different image orientation from one installed on the right side. The CL-817 supports both mirror image and non-mirrored image configurations.

This makes the camera easier to adapt to different installation positions and vehicle configurations. For installers working with different truck models, buses, vans and fleet vehicles, this provides another layer of flexibility when designing a Side View Camera System.

IP69K Protection for Exterior Vehicle Camera Applications

A Truck Side Camera is normally installed outside the vehicle, so environmental protection is an important consideration. The CL-817 features an IP69K waterproof rating, making it suitable for demanding exterior vehicle applications. The camera is designed to operate from -20°C to +75°C, with a storage temperature range of -30°C to +85°C.
