From what I've read the Blackvue product has a more mature and/or reliable cloud service than Thinkware. I was originally more attracted to the U1000 for image quality reasons but am concerned about Thinkware's software quality, particularly for getting stored and live video from the device. My aim is to be able to add access to the videos and live feed to my own custom web dashboard that runs in my van to control electric, solar, heating, water, etc. I'd like to be able to interface directly to avoid reliability issues with a particular cloud service and to unify my vehicle's various functions.
Blackvue seems to have a lot of folks writing custom integrations and APIs to interface with the camera directly via WIFI as well as via the cloud service here on Github, whereas a similar search for Thinkware doesn't come up with anything relevant. Additionally in a live chat with Thinkware the support individual I spoke with didn't have any information on APIs or custom access.
Does anyone have experience with grabbing camera feeds or files from their camera setup with any manufacturer? Any recommendations on going about this?
Thanks!
