Wifi
The Qvia AR790M WD 2CH is equipped with Wifi. This Wifi allows ‘logging in’ to the AR790M WD 2CH dashcam via smartphone or tablet. The specially designed Qvia app for iOS and Android provides seamless access to the dashcam to instantly share all recorded videos with all your acquaintances. Through the Wifi, settings of the dashcam can also be changed and saved recorded footage can be viewed. Another great advantage of the Wifi functionality in this dashcam is the automatic firmware update that can be performed.
ADAS
The ADAS system on this Qvia AR790M WD 2CH is a built-in ‘Advanced Driver Assistant System’. This system supports the driver while driving in three ways:
FCWS: ‘Forward Collision Warning System’. This system issues a warning when approaching a vehicle in front at high speed. The system alerts, for example, when there is a traffic jam in front of the car. With a good GPS signal, the current speed is known and the camera can make a good estimate of the situation around the car.
LDWS: ‘Lane Departure Warning System’. When the car is in danger of changing lanes on the motorway, the camera can give a signal.
FVSA: ‘Forward Vehicle Start Alarm’. Do you also sometimes fail to pay attention when standing at traffic lights? This system gives a warning when a vehicle ahead starts to move away, for example at a traffic light or in a traffic jam.
*The ADAS system works better in some locations than others depending on the type of (highway) road. On narrow roads, for example, the LDWS system can issue an alert faster than on wide roads.
Time Lapse parking mode
This Qvia AR790M WD 2CH is one of the first dashcams to have the ability to store videos in continuous parking mode through Time Lapse. Time lapse involves taking a picture every second, which can later be played back as accelerated video. The big advantage of time lapse is that a lot more data can be stored on the SD card.
5 recording modes
The AR790M WD 2CH can record images in five different ways:
Regular recording: The regular recordings made by the camera are stored on the SD card in fragments of 3 or 5 minutes. When the SD card is full, the oldest images are automatically deleted and overwritten by new fragments.
Event recording: In case of an impact, the built-in G-sensor is activated and the camera will make an event recording (indicated by a warning signal). the 10 seconds before the impact and 20 seconds after the impact are stored securely on the MicroSD and cannot be deleted by the camera.
Park recording: In parking mode, a 30-second fragment is stored on the regular SD card when a movement is detected. Again, the 10 seconds before and 20 seconds after detection are stored.
Continuous parking recording: In this mode, a picture is taken every second which can later be played back as a time lapse video. In this way, about 15 hours of video can be stored with a 32gb SD card.
Emergency recording: A manual 30-second Emergency recording can be started at the touch of a button and is saved on the MicroSD card.
2CH SONY Exmor sensor

These Qvia SD cards are specially designed for use in Qvia cameras. They withstand many read and write cycles and can withstand large temperature changes. In addition, they are fast enough to handle the large amount of data from FullHD recordings.
Built-in GPS
Because of the built-in GPS in the AR790M WD 2CH, all coordinates of the locations where is stored. Also, the GPS allows the current speed to be displayed on screen.
