Hi. I recently damaged my neck fairly badly with subsequent restricted ability to turn right. Most inconvenient at obtuse intersections.
I have rigged up a 19mm OD (3/4") Car Front View Camera with Universal High definition CMOS Non-mirror Image Without Distance Scale Line
combined with an Apexel HD Camera Lens 2x Telephoto Lens.
I use a 4.3 Inch TFT LCD Rearview Monitor Vehicle Dashboard Monitor,
all on a FLOVEME Car Phone Holder with a Long Arm Gooseneck Adjustable Car Phone Mount.
The camera has at least 140 degree FOV which in reality is too much.
Does anyone have an idea where I could get reduced FOV camera (say 90° - 100°) to give me better focus distance so I can safely see what is coming? This will also give me a more realistic estimation of distance as well. Apparently Car SOS rigged up a kit for a guy who had lost the use of his left eye but I cannot find a copy of this. (Car SOS series 9 episode 3.)
If anyone has any better ideas of what I could do I would really appreciate it. I need one for each of 4 different vehicles including a motorhome and an MGF!
Big thanks in advance for any feedback. Tim.
