Features

Overview: The Cobra SC 220C dash and interior camera provides a continuous recording of the road ahead and can even warn you of upcoming red light cameras, speed cameras, and police enforcement locations via the Drive Smarter app. The dash camera also includes an interior-facing camera with IR LEDs, providing a clear view of your vehicle's interior. A built-in G-sensor can detect impacts and will automatically protect the footage around that time. Built-in GPS will also embed location, time and date information into the recorded video, protecting your side of the story in the event of an accident.

Front Camera: The SC 220C front-facing dash camera records video at 1440p QHD (2560x1440) resolution for crystal clear recordings. 1080p HD (1920x1080) resolution is also available for increased storage capacity. Designed for set-and-forget operation, the unit will turn on and start recording each time power is applied to it, or by pressing and holding the top-panel On/Off button. When power is removed, the dash-cam will safely stop recording and shut down.

Interior Camera & LCD Screen: The dash camera features an interior-facing camera, that records in 1080p (1920x1080) resolution, and a 3" LCD screen. The LCD screen can be used to display the interior camera, front camera, or both overlayed. The 3" LCD display can also be used for playback of recorded video, as well as menu settings and options. The interior camera includes IR (Infrared) LEDs for improved interior viewing at night and in low-light conditions.

Optional Cameras: A 2.5mm accessory port on the side of the SC 220C dash camera lets you add an optional FV-RV1 rear-view camera or FV-EV1 external camera (both sold separately).

Continuous Loop Recording: Video footage is recorded to the included 16GB micro-SD card (expandable to 512GB) in a continuous loop fashion, with the oldest footage getting overwritten when the card becomes full. Footage is stored in 1, 2, or 3 minute clips, making it easier for reviewing and transferring to a computer for editing. A built-in microphone allows the surrounding audio to be recorded along with video.

• Emergency Recordings: If an impact or collision is detected, that recorded video will be saved in the Emergency Recordings file and won't be overwritten by the Continuous Loop Recording mode.
• Action Button: An Action push-button on the camera lets you manually record and save (Lock) video that won't be overwritten by the Continuous Loop Recording feature.
• Photos: An on-screen "camera" icon lets you easily take a snap-shot of the camera's current view, which is stored in the camera's Photo Folder.

Wide View: The Cobra dash camera provides a 140° wide view of the road and peripherals, while the interior-view camera provides 120° wide view.

G-Sensor: The SC 220C features a built-in accelerometer that can sense an impact or collision, and will automatically protect video footage around the time. The G-sensor features 3 sensitivity settings, with 1 being the most sensitive and 3 the least, or it can be turned off completely.

Parking Mode & Motion Detection: The Cobra dash camera can monitor your vehicle while parked, if connected to a constant power source. The camera will monitor its surroundings, while the G-sensor can detect an impact to the vehicle. If motion or an impact is detected, the SC 220C will save 1 min video clips as long as the activity is being detected.

GPS: A GPS antenna, built into the dash camera, lets you watermark recorded video by having the date/time, speed, GPS coordinates, and the Cobra logo stamped to the camera's video footage. The GPS can also let you know the location of your vehicle, if the dash cam is connected to +12V constant power and connected to a Wi-Fi hotspot.

360 Alerts Voice Announcements: When your connected smartphone is running the Drive Smarter app, the camera can give you verbal warnings provided by the app, such as approaching red-light and speed-cameras, user-reported police and radar use in the area, accidents, and more.

Microphone: The Cobra dash-cam features a built-in microphone, allowing audio to be recorded along with video, if desired. The microphone can be easily be turned on/off from the main screen and settings.
