Teltonika DualCam solution is perfect for capturing videos or pictures of the events that might occur on the road, e.g. crash. Mounted on the vehicle front window, two cameras are used, front and rear, to record videos before and after the events, take photos periodically or by request and send all data to the server. Besides, the innovative solution ensures the safety of passengers as recordings are made of what is happening inside the vehicle.

Q: What is a dashcam?

A: Dashcams are small cameras on the dashboard or windshield that record while driving. Many users hope to be able to prove their innocence in the event of an accident or want to report traffic violations.
