Hello and welcome to our moving dashcam testing laboratory performed by pnz.r00t, his Toyota LC and later Hilux in Penza, Russia. The point of our tests is to find out and to show how do dashcams work in heavy conditions in matter of image quality. In my point of view there are two main parameters to define it: Overal image quality (OIQ), that shows how well we could read small details in objects and how far Low-light image quality (LLIQ), that shows how much things we could see on dark road So the testing route have been chosen based on these criterias: It should be the night. We have to see the road without any illumination. We have to show transition from light to dark. It should be clear how well we could read major object details such as road signs, license plate numbers and any road infrastructure that contains words and digits. The real-world video is the best way to manage it. Our testing route is illuminated mostly by sodium (orange) gas discharge lighting. We have a gas station on it which called "Sunflower" (refer to google translate for russian word). It also has absolutely dark sector on which there is a road sign after turning. We took no more than 5 dashcams at a time and did as many passages as many items we had. The conditions of the route are mostly reiterateable, so we could compare items no matter if there is winter or summer. Of course, the most hard condition could be is the rain. But it would impossible to wait for the rain every time we have to perform the test even in the cloudy central Russia. It is also important to say that we tried to to keep equal conditions for every competitor as much as it possible on public road. We intentionally allow you to upload and to watch on youtube unedited videos to avoid their distortion. There are all were shot in Full-HD (1920x1080) 30fps, exept GoPro BE. And the last: We throw a car in front of us to see how could we read the licence plate. In our case we couldn't because of shoting car height, front car low hight, headlights and licence plate angle - and this is the hardest condition that you can find.
