Description

Panoramic Surround-View Monitoring System with Dual-Recording Capability
The Toyota 360° Camera + Rear Drive Recorder is an advanced, dual-purpose safety system. It integrates panoramic visual awareness with dedicated incident recording. This unique OEM solution combines a 360° surround-view camera, typically used for parking assistance, with a dedicated rear-facing dashcam recorder.

This hybrid system aids the driver in maneuvering by providing a real-time composite bird’s-eye view of the vehicle’s immediate surroundings. Additionally, it automatically records high-quality footage from behind the vehicle. It is specifically engineered to be highly effective against tailgating, rear-end collisions, and hit-and-run incidents. Thus, it offers both proactive driving assistance and robust reactive evidence collection.

Product Highlights

🔄 Dual-Function Hybrid: 360° Parking Aid + Dedicated Rear Dashcam
This system uniquely merges two critical technologies:

1. 360° Surround-View Camera: Provides a real-time, stitched top-down view of the vehicle’s perimeter on the navigation display, dramatically improving visibility for tight parking, low-speed maneuvering, and navigating complex urban environments.

2. Dedicated Rear Drive Recorder: Functions as a constant, high-fidelity dashcam focused on the rearward view. This ensures all activity behind the vehicle—especially tailgating, rear-end collisions, and parking lot incidents—is automatically and reliably recorded for evidence.

🎯 Optimized Defense Against Rear-End and Hit-and-Run Incidents
The system’s architecture is specifically tailored to address some of the most common and frustrating traffic incidents. The always-on rear recording provides unambiguous evidence in rear-end collision disputes. Meanwhile, the 360° camera's WDR-enhanced view can capture critical peripheral details. This is especially useful during side-swipe or parking lot hit-and-run scenarios. It offers a more complete picture than a simple rear-facing lens alone.

⚡ Advanced Dual-Camera Imaging: WDR for 360°, HDR for Rear
The system employs specialized imaging technology for each function:

• 360° Camera: Equipped with WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) to balance lighting across the wide, composite view, ensuring clarity in shadows and highlights for effective maneuvering.

• Rear Drive Recorder Camera: Features HDR (High Dynamic Range) to capture high-contrast scenes with exceptional detail, which is crucial for identifying license plates, vehicle models, and other evidence in varying lighting conditions behind the car.

🔧 Seamless OEM Integration for a Factory-Fitted Experience
As a genuine Toyota accessory supplied by Toyota Mobility Parts, this system is designed for seamless integration into compatible Toyota vehicles. Installation is performed by certified technicians. This ensures the multiple cameras are correctly calibrated and the software integrates with the vehicle's infotainment system. The recording function operates reliably without interfering with other vehicle electronics.

Technical Specifications & System Details

Product Name: Toyota 360° Camera + Rear Drive Recorder
System Type: OEM-Integrated Hybrid System (360° Surround-View + Dedicated Rear Dashcam)
Key Feature: Dual-Function – Real-Time 360° Parking View & Continuous Rear Incident Recording
Imaging Technology: WDR on 360° Camera, HDR on Rear Dashcam
Compatibility: Vehicle-specific installation for compatible Toyota models
Support: Manufacturer-backed via Toyota dealer network and Carmate Co., Ltd. Service Center

Installation & Performance Notes:

• Installation: Requires professional, model-specific installation and calibration for the 360° camera system to ensure accurate stitching and display.

• Parking Mode: The rear dashcam features parking surveillance. Users should manage recording duration to preserve the vehicle’s 12V battery.

• Media & Compatibility: Requires use of specified, high-endurance microSD cards. Installation avoids interference with other vehicle systems like GPS/VICS.

Safety & Utility Philosophy

Goal: To provide Toyota owners with a comprehensive visual system that enhances both active driving safety and passive security. It aims to improve situational awareness during driving and gather automatic evidence, specifically targeting vulnerabilities at the vehicle’s rear and sides.

Focus: The system delivers immediate practical utility for parking and low-speed driving via the 360° view. It ensures forensic-grade documentation of rear incidents with a dedicated HDR camera. There is seamless operation through deep vehicle integration. Furthermore, it creates a multi-layered deterrent and evidence solution.

Usage, Compatibility & Critical Considerations

⚠️ Essential Owner Guidelines:

• Vehicle Compatibility: System feasibility depends on the Toyota model and its existing audio/navigation unit. A dealer consultation is essential.

• Battery Management: Responsible use of parking recording mode is required to avoid a depleted battery.

• Designated Components: Must use the specified microSD card type for reliable dashcam operation.

• System Limitations: The 360° view is an aid for maneuvering. The recording function is for evidence. Neither is a substitute for attentive driving or an autonomous accident prevention system.

🎯 Primary Safety & Ownership Benefits:

• Proactive Parking & Maneuvering Confidence: Drastically reduce stress and risk when parking in tight spaces or navigating complex environments.

• Targeted Rear Incident Evidence: Automatically capture clear, HDR footage of tailgating, rear-end collisions, and parking lot incidents.

• Enhanced Peripheral Awareness: The 360° view can help identify risks from the sides during low-speed driving.

• Integrated, Factory-Supported Solution: Enjoy the reliability and clean functionality of a system designed and installed within the Toyota ecosystem.

Strategic Advantages & Intelligent Hybrid Design

📈 Two Solutions in One, Maximizing Value
This hybrid system offers compelling value by addressing two distinct customer needs—easier parking and dashcam security—in a single, integrated package, appealing to owners seeking comprehensive vehicle enhancement.

🔥 A Strategic Focus on the Vehicle’s Most Vulnerable Area
By pairing a general 360° awareness system with a dedicated rear recorder, Toyota intelligently focuses technological resources on the vehicle’s most frequently impacted zone, providing layered coverage where it is statistically most needed.

🔄 Bridging Active Safety and Passive Security
This system uniquely occupies the space between active driving aids (like parking sensors) and passive security tools (like dashcams). It creates a more holistic product that is useful every day and protective in a crisis.
