Vueroid Meetup - March 2025

[VUEROiD]

The file system that you're patenting would it be similar to the file method that g-net uses?

The concept could be similar, but the systems are different. GNet's file system requires a dedicated PC viewer to play the recorded videos.

 

[VUEROiD]

@Vueroid

That gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling about your file system. If you are reworking a system that is a derivative of the NVME protocol that is acceptable, to me anyway. 🙂

One request though, please design and release a Telephoto lens that can be used in place of the Interior or Rear camera.

Now, I just wish you guys would hurry up and release the S1, I have money to give you!!

Ohh~~ I will definitely take this up and check what I can do...
Appreciate that.

I would love to talk a bit more about this with you through DM.

Q: Does the S1 4K Infinite support Loop Record setting 1 / 2 / 3 / 5 / 10 Minutes?
Or does it ONLY have 1 Minute Loop Record?

The official version of the firmware has a 1-minute loop recording.
In some cases, like B to B, we modified it for 5 to 10 minutes at their specific request for the unique application.

 

[VUEROiD]

Why do most companies sell rear and front cameras together and not offer the option to purchase only a front camera? So if we want we can use a 4K separate dashcam instead.

You will have options 1ch, 2ch, and 3ch.

Q:
There are five Vueroid APPs in the iOS APP Store;
1.) Vueroid
2.) Vueroid Edge
3.) Vueroid BSD
4.) Vueroid Cloud
5.) Vueroid CV
Which APP is for the S1 4K?
Will there be a 6th iOS APP for AI License Plate Restoration, (Vueroid HUB)?

None among them is for S1 4K. Vueroid HUB with AI LP Restoration button will be there soon.

@Vueroid

Are the final specs set in stone yet?

1. Have you determined the parking Mode Options (Low Bitrate, Motion Detection, Buffered Parking Mode)?

2. What frame rate will low bitrate use?

3. Will there by a 3 wire hardwire kit? OBD II Adapter?

4. What is the viewing angle of the front lens?

Let me please share the final specifications at the time of launch.
People who care about Vueroid advise against revealing too much before it is publicly available.
Of course, some reviewers will have all the information at the time of the final sample dispatch.
Please understand my points.

What I can say now is "Yes, I heard the requests at DCT and implemented some of the features from them."
A few that are reasonable enough will be updated through a firmware upgrade not long after the launch.

We do not have much time right now, focusing on validation and double-checking reliability.
It always takes more time for testing and validation than for adding a new feature or implementation.

Appreciate your interest. 😉

Is the timeframe for release still mid-year?

We are trying but you will see when will be...
The market volatility is too high...

I have to say it again.
I absolutely appreciate it that you care so much about what the people here have to say and try to implement it if it's reasonable.
Much respect for it!

I understand the need to wait. Please do let us know when the official launch happens and the specs are available for public knowledge.

I commend you for listening to people's feedback and suggestions on dash Cam talk and hope these will be useful to your consumers upon launch

I'm sure this has been mentioned and I apologize for asking out of convenience, but what in country are dash Vueroid Cams manufactured? Is it made in Korea or China? You refer to market volatility. I just wondered how market volatility is going to impact production and release

Vueroid are a south Korean company. Somewhat related but an article here about potential effects: https://www.reuters.com/business/au...s-auto-industry-hit-by-us-tariffs-2025-04-08/

Elsewhere there's articles coming out about how Chinese sellers are either raising prices heaps on Amazon or pulling out altogether out of Amazon, was an article about Anker (yes, Chinese I know) - but the dominoes are starting to fall.

It appears it will have effects on the brands we know and love here on DCT, like viofo, 70mai, Vantrue etc. Who might have a better time having correspondence and doing business in regions distant from USA such as Europe or Asia or Oceania...

Thank you very much for the article. I wonder if this will still be a problem now that the tariffs were paused for 90 days?

I think China is going to get the brunt with 145% tariffs as well as the USA facing reciprocal 125% tariffs. I can Only imagine that you are 100% right with Chinese brands pulling out of Amazon.

I would love to know what countries are the top importers and purchasers of dash cameras. I wonder if the US is a major client or if sales are minimal comparative to other countries around the world.

I like the picture of the South Korean cars on the dock ready for shipping 🤣

The ship is not labeled Kia or Hyundai, it is labeled SAIC, which is China's largest Automotive Manufacturer, and runs it's own shipping company. So how much are the tariffs on those South Korean cars shipped in to the USA by the Chinese?

As you say, it is only a pause, and 90 days is long enough to put a lot of small USA businesses out of business before they know what they need to do - they can't order stock, because the price may double during transit, and then might drop again after they have paid but before they can sell! Those businesses can often only buy from one country, but China sells to many countries, so who gets hit worst? That will be the country that fails.

It started off with Russia, but I doubt they are buying many these days, unless they are repurposing them!
USA doesn't buy many dashcams per person, but there are a lot of people there, and sales were increasing before the current problems.
Europe buys a lot, more in the parts with the worst driving, UK has around 10 million on the roads, then many of the big cities in Eastern Asia have a lot, including in South Korea, although they are often a different specification to "Western" markets, they are not so interested in image quality, not requiring 4K resolution. Australia must have quite a lot per person.

I would like to know those numbers, do you have them by chance?

There is no doubt, the dash cam market in regards to number of sales and usage is far behind the rest of the world. As it is, @Vueroid is poised to make a large dent in this growing market, I have no doubt of that.

The market should not be looked at as number of dash cams across the population but the number of legally registered drivers that are using dash cams. This is a more relevant number as a family of 6 may only have two drivers if all children are under aged. Here is a reasonably done survey, by a lawyer, that shows %16 of American drivers use a dash cam.

Marc Brown - Statistics

In the U.S. there are approximately 242 million licensed drivers

Hedges and Company

By those number there is roughly 38,700,000 dash cams installed in vehicles. Those numbers as far as I know, are non-commercial cases, add in the commercial use and the dash cam usage goes up.

the funny thing about the statistics listed by mark brown is 67% consider never getting a dash camera, , 18 percent said they don't have a dash camera but considered getting one, and 16% of respondents said they had a dash camera.

Those numbers total 101%......LOL

Anyway, taking the statistics at face value that only 16% of respondents have dashed cameras in the United states, that means 84% do not drive with one.

While there are 242,112,000 licensed drivers in the United states, we do not know how many of these drivers are in the same household or share a vehicle. Likewise, if there are multiple vehicles in a household, do all the vehicles have dash cameras installed?

We do know 298.7 million registered cars exist in the united.

https://hedgescompany.com/automotive-market-research-statistics/auto-mailing-lists-and-marketing/

Even if took the best case scenario and based the 16% of cars with dashcams off the 298.7 million figure, you'd get 47.79 million dashcams. Clearly, this is an overestimation and is unlikely to be the true number. Ultimately, while the United states does have a sizable portion its population investing in dash cams, I am sure it constitutes only a moderate amount of global sales.

Still, the market is not negligible and will certainly be hurt by the tariffs
