Road Cam app

 

Videos
The front camera recorded in 1920×1080 30fps with an overall bit rate of 20.3 Mb/s. 

 

The rear camera recorded in 1920×1080 30fps with an overall bit rate of 16.6 Mb/s.

 

Final thoughts
This Mini0906 Pro is an upgraded version of the original Mini0906 with newer Sony Exmor R sensors for both front and rear cams. The recording is definitely improved from the previous Mini0906.

It now also includes a built-in wi-fi so you can use Road Cam app to connect to the Mini0906 Pro

The Road Cam app is very easy to use to stream/download the videos via wi-fi. But can’t be used to configure the settings in the Mini0906 Pro.

Do take note that this Mini0906 Pro is a beta sample before production as my unit has an issue of the date and time reset to Jan 1, 2000, every time after shutting down. But lucky the date and time will sync after the GPS gets connected to the satellites.

can you turn the rear cam so that it can capture the inside cabin? is it possible? thanks.

    Jeremy Wong · August 18, 2020 at 4:09 pm

    Yes, you can but it is very dark then the video will be very dark. As the rear cam doesn’t have infrared like those for cabin recordings.

    Mine is mostly default settings. Only with WDR turned on. Did you try to update to the latest firmware?
