ADSM002 Description
Core Purpose
The ADSM002 is a windshield-mounted driver monitoring camera designed for in-vehicle safety and surveillance. It captures video of the driver area to support monitoring systems that help improve driver awareness and operational safety. Its compact form allows it to be installed directly on the windshield without obstructing the driver’s view.
Video Capture and Imaging
The camera uses a 100W CMOS sensor and records video at 1280 × 720P resolution, providing clear visual monitoring of the driver area. This level of resolution allows monitoring platforms to observe driver behavior and cabin conditions in real time.
A 6 mm lens with F2.2 aperture provides a balanced field of view. The camera covers 65° diagonal, 55° horizontal, and 31° vertical viewing angles, which are suited for focusing on the driver seat area rather than the entire vehicle cabin.
Night Monitoring Capability
To support monitoring in low-light environments, the device includes 940 nm infrared illumination with an effective distance of up to 1 meter. This allows the camera to capture clear driver images even during nighttime driving or in poorly lit vehicle interiors.
The image system automatically switches between color and black-and-white mode depending on lighting conditions. This ensures the driver remains visible regardless of the surrounding environment.
Video Output and Signal
The camera outputs analog video using an AHD signal with NTSC format and a 1.0Vp-p 75Ω video interface. This allows integration with compatible vehicle monitoring recorders or telematics video systems.
Automatic image adjustments such as auto electronic shutter, automatic gain control (AGC), automatic white balance (AWB), and backlight compensation (BLC) help maintain consistent video clarity while driving conditions change.
Power and Environmental Operation
The device operates using 12V DC power (±20%) and typically draws 80 mA current, with a power consumption of about 0.6 W. These low power requirements make it suitable for continuous operation within vehicle electrical systems.
It is designed for vehicle environments, supporting operating temperatures from −20°C to +70°C, with storage tolerance down to −25°C and up to +80°C.
Physical Installation
The ADSM002 is designed as a compact windshield-mounted camera. The unit measures 28 × 34 × 50 mm (without bracket) and includes a 2-meter connection cable with BMW port interface, allowing straightforward installation into compatible in-vehicle monitoring systems.
