The VUEROiD S1 4K Infinite Has Arrived

Image of where I have the S1-4K mounted and the Interior cam mounted. The Interior cam gets moved around for testing. I prefer it here because it offers a clear view of the driver's side, including the windshield area and cabin. The front image is just that; it was a cloudy and rainy morning.

That is a fantastic placement I would do to monitor the side. Now I wish there are two of this to place on each size. Is it possible? How?
 
Is there a way to connect the S1 to a battery pack and the battery pack connect to a cig lighter so there is parking mode for the purpose of transferring to another vehicle.

If the battery pack is a dedicated dashcam battery designed for dashcam use, then you will be able to use all functions of the Vueroid S1 4K, including parking mode, with the setup you described.
The automatic switching between driving mode and parking mode is triggered by the ignition-off signal, so the battery pack must be able to generate this trigger signal. This is why a general-purpose battery pack will not work — you need a battery pack specifically made for dashcams.
When the ignition is turned off, power from the cigarette lighter socket is cut, and the battery pack detects that the ignition has been turned off. It then sends the trigger signal to the dashcam. The dashcam switches to parking mode, and the internal cells of the battery pack will continue to supply power to the dashcam.

Instead of connecting the Vueroid S1 4K’s included H/W cable (3-line cable) to the vehicle’s fuse box, you can connect it directly to the battery pack.
If you contact us through the Support page on the Vueroid website and share a photo of the battery pack’s terminals, we can guide you more precisely on how to connect it.

Of course, for Ben from Safe Drive Solutions, this will be a piece of cake. 😉

By the way, what does that mean, "the purpose of transferring to another vehicle"?

The current system doesn’t support using the two in-cabin cameras in place of the rear camera. Starting from the next model, the configuration you’re expecting may be possible.
Have a great day!

Thanks for the reply. I will be changing vehicle in a few years. It will be easiler to just unplug everything from the cig lighter than removing from the fuse box.

That will be great and make it a 4-channel system.

To protect your vehicle’s battery, using an external battery pack is the best option. Otherwise, if you prefer a simple way to switch the system to another vehicle, using the OBD cable that @Karagandinez mentioned is the easiest way.

Have a good day~
 
That is on the list. We have one, but we will release it after the upgrade.
hmm.. that makes me interested and might wait a bit longer.. can you elaborate more? When is the estimated release date? Don't want to wait forever though.

You have a 4-channel but not released yet? What upgrade are you referring to?

I would love to have a 4-channel dashcam where there is the usual front and rear, and then 2 interior to install in whatever way the user desires.. I think the current dimension and adjustability of the interior cam is perfect.

Hope the resolution stays the same for the front and maybe 4K for the rear also and 1080P for the interior.

This was the one that used FHD cameras.
I can’t confirm when we’ll be able to do this, nor what the final resolution configuration will be after upgrade.
We need initial planning based on market trends, and the specifications should align with the majority of user requirements.
It may be a long wait.

Have a good day~

Side cameras you really need to have right there on a side glass, this can often be a fixed glass on rear doors.
I had such a setup a while back using a regular ´F&R system. and then a dual remote system with very small camera units on the fixed glass on my rear doors.
Was not bad, but a few " issues"
1: The 2 different systems had different boot times so footage was not in sync as is, but this can be remedied in post production and should not matter much in a case you need it as evidence.

2: The side cameras had regular dashcam field of view lenses, so the overlap of them and the F&R cameras was some distance from the car, i feel such side cameras should have a extra wide lens close to 180 deg FOV.

THis was back in the 1080p days.

 
I am thinking it would sort of be nicer if the side cameras was a separate system you could just " pair " with your F&R system, there should then be some sort of handshake / sync feature so the 2 systems started at the same time and so was in sync all the time.

I have long argued for something like that just with a hidden main unit, with some kind of bus, you could add more cameras for instance, alarm - 4G option and so on.
So people can go as crazy as they like but one small step at a time, so you don't have to spend say 800 dollars on some huge monolithic system.
The restraint i assume would then be the speed of the bus, CUZ say you have put 6 - 8 cameras / 3 - 4 dual modules in your car, and they all need to save to a central storage device, that would need some bandwidth to do.
 
The VS1 seem to be small alright, but not as small as the K2S remote cameras i used for side cameras.
These was so small the lenses was actually 8 mm fine thread where the norm in dash and action cameras are 12 mm fine thread lenses.


You could probably also use some dual remote motorcycle cameras for the same job.
The dual remote setup never really caught on for some reason, i personally think it give a range of improvements / possibilities if you do it right.
 
OPPO FIND X9 PRO


I have a new cell phone, the OPPO Find X9 Pro, ColorOS 16, and it is working great with HUB and the S1 4K. ColorOS 16 is from the Android family, and in general, anything you find in the Google Playstore should work on the OPPO line of dashcams. The OPPO Find X9 Pro I have is the Global version and is being used in the U.S. on Mint (T-Mobile).

If you have an OPPO cell phone with ColorOS, installing and using HUB with the S1 4K should be no problem at all.
 
A new version of HUB has been released.

Version 1.4.04[129] is available for Android / ColorOS

Version 1.4.0(149) is available for Apple iOS and iPadOS


S1 4K – Firmware v1.3.11 Update Notes​


  • Updated menu icons (Up/Down → Back / Up & Down)
  • Revised Stamp settings menu (Brand model, firmware version, date & time, channel, voltage, video GPS speed, GPS coordinates, enhancement, frame rate, watermark, color — 4 options)
  • Added DC Off function via long press of the OK button during parking mode transition
  • Added Time Zone support
  • Added GPS disconnected icon
  • Improved VOD playback speed when using 2.4G Wi-Fi
  • Enhanced video image quality (Linear, HDR + IPC)
  • Enabled interior camera motion detection
  • Enhanced GPS zone setting accuracy and advanced Hub UI
  • Improved overall system stability

There is more that I need to look at.

I updated HUB and it immediately downloaded a new firmware version, V1.3.11.

Thanks, Tony, that is good to know. I have been on firmware 1.3.11 for a while, so the new FW was not offered to me. I am a little surprised, though, because I had been told that firmware 1.4.x was the next public release. Matters not really, I think users will like the new releases of HUB and the firmware.

Where did you get firmware version 1.3.11?
If it's not a secret...

Here @TonyM is using firmware version 1.3.9

I am still testing firmware, so it can be side-loaded with a copy provided to me.

The Premium Night Vision photos look pretty good. The important aspect of PNV is that it does not work in total darkness or near total darkness; it was not designed for that. However, it works great with just a bit of ambient light. One of my early posts shows the PNV and non-PNV images, and they are similar to what Tony has posted. PNV works pretty darn well.

Some users were provided with test firmware version 1.39.
That's why I asked where you got the firmware version 1.3.11.
Perhaps Vueroid distributed different versions of test firmware to users...
