I truly don’t understand how in 2023 with all the digitalization we have cars with backup cameras from at best a 2015 mid range smartphone. What’s preventing a manufacturer like bmw for an example from putting a high end sony sensor like the one on the iPhone 15 into their camera modules?

    A lot of smart camera phones are very sensitive to vibration and won’t survive for very long bolted to a car.

    You’ll kill an iPhone camera in just a few hours mounting it to a motorcycle. Cars are a little more civilized, but they’re not going to last the life of the car.

      wut? i had my iphone mounted to my motorcycle for countless hours with no issues.

      Cars are a little more civilized, but they’re not going to last the life of the car.

      my iphone sits in the cupholder of my truck every single time i drive, basically no less prone to vibration than being mounted on the back of the vehicle.
