Rear View Camera
The rear view camera captures areas behind the vehicle which cannot be seen directly or with the help of mirrors. Ideally, the camera should have a 100° or 120° aperture angle to facilitate the backing-up process.
Trailer Hitch Camera
A trailer hitch camera assists the driver during the trailer hitching process. The hitching process can be monitored using a 120° aperture angle.
All-around Vision Solution
The MEKRA Surround View System assists the driver perfectly in any driving situation. Due to the system’s modular design, it can be operated with up to four cameras. By connecting the system to the vehicle’s turn signals, it can be controlled fully automatically.
Work Area Camera / Loading Area Camera
Work area cameras are useful for monitoring work processes, such as loading and unloading operations. What is shown here is the field of vision provided by a work area camera (70° aperture angle) mounted to a dump truck to monitor the load distribution of bulk cargoes.
