On hot summer days its manual recommends plain Collision Detection over AOV, and turning the camera off if the cabin reaches 60°C.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Does AOV Parking Mode Catch What Other Modes Miss?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAOV parking mode records without waiting for a trigger. A normal parking mode only saves footage when something crosses a threshold: motion detection needs a person close enough to the lens, and impact detection needs a knock hard enough for the G-sensor. That works for a solid hit. Plenty of car park damage is slow, though, like a trolley rolling into a door or a car creeping back until it touches your bumper. If nothing clears the threshold, there is no clip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Vantrue E1 Pro S takes the threshold away. In AOV mode it keeps capturing one frame a second (or one every two seconds) for as long as it has power, so the footage exists whether or not anything triggered it. AOV Collision Detection adds a locked clip when the G-sensor feels a bump. The trade-off is honest enough: AOV is a time lapse, not real-time video, and at the default setting 30 seconds of parking plays back in one. It is built to show you what happened, and when.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is Different From the Vantrue E1 Pro?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Vantrue E1 Pro S keeps the E1 Pro's sensor, screen and size, and changes how it starts and how it parks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto;\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eVantrue E1 Pro S\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eVantrue E1 Pro\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSensor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSony STARVIS 2 IMX678\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSony STARVIS 2 IMX678\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProcessor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNew generation Novatek\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePrevious generation Novatek\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAOV parking mode\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTurboBoot fast start\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes, about 1 second\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWi-Fi\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWi-Fi 6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDual-band Wi-Fi 5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eField of view\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e155°\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e158°\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCPL filter in the box\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTop Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eParked cover without a trigger:\u003c\/strong\u003e AOV keeps a low-power recording running, so there is no sensor threshold to clear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReadable plates:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4K on the STARVIS 2 IMX678 sensor, with PlatePix after dark, gives each plate more pixels before you zoom in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRolling sooner:\u003c\/strong\u003e TurboBoot has the camera recording about a second after power on, so short trips are covered from the first metre.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNothing on show:\u003c\/strong\u003e The cube-shaped body hides behind the mirror.
