RYDEEN Introduces the CM-V90 AHD Digital Camera for Universal Use Including Commercial and RVs
TORRANCE, CALIFORNIA, August 21, 2024—Rydeen Mobile Electronics, a pioneer in vehicle safety and cutting-edge electronics design, is excited to unveil the latest innovation in driver assistance technology: CM-V90 AHD Digital Camera for Universal Use engineered to deliver crystal-clear imaging and advanced features, this robust camera enhances operational efficiency.
With the CM-V90 AHD, you get the best of both worlds. It offers both standard view when used in conjaction with Rydeen’s digital mirrors, and 90°down word- view providing you with the viewing needs. CM-V90 AHD Camera for Universal Use integrates with Rydeen digital mirror, such as the PV8-A, TOMBO360X, and 360VIEW-SPL.
The name "CM-V90 AHD" comes from its ability to provide a 90-degree vertical viewing angle.
The CM-V90 AHD Camera is an upgrade option for Rydeen digital mirrors for commercial vehicle fleets, RVs, even for SUVs and pasanger vehicles.
The CM-V90 AHD Camera eliminates the need to manually adjust the camera while backing up. It provides a clear rear view just like viewing through a standard rear view mirror. As you start reversing, the camera automatically switches from a broadside view to a bumper view. The rear view of the vehicle is extremely comprehensive, offering expanded coverage on the sides, top, left, and right, allowing to see approaching vehicles quickly. In addition to these features, the CM-V90 AHD upgrade boasts a wider range of vertical and diagonal views and the ability to show the bumper while driving, making it particularly beneficial for owners of vans or larger vehicles.
CM-V90 AHD cameras utilizing the SONY IMX 307 Image Sensor. The CM-V90 AHD features a side spherical view similar with a GoPro® Lens, which is curved, while the stock camera produces an almost flat image. The CM-V90's lens construction includes six layers of glass and one infrared filter, including an infrared filter.
The CM-V90 AHD Camera with a 30-feet Extension Cable. The super-wide viewing angle allows for a streaming and top-down view with just one camera. The digital AHD signal enables sharp and high-resolution 1080P picture quality. It offers high-definition clarity, enhanced low-light performance, and an expansive viewing angle. It is rugged and weatherproof, and the CM-V90 AHD Camera provides comprehensive features tailored to the needs.
Key Features:

• High-Resolution 1080p Recording: Captures footage in stunning clarity with a resolution of 1945×1097 pixels, ensuring you miss no details on the road.
• Durability: The IP67 waterproof rating guarantees protection against the elements, making it suitable for all weather conditions.
• Low Light Performance: With a minimum illumination rating of less than 0.1 Lux, it performs impeccably in low-light conditions, ensuring round-the-clock safety.
“Universal car cameras have become essential in modern vehicles, enhancing driver confidence during reversing and parking. With the introduction of digital mirror options by Cadillac, consumer awareness of these features has grown. At Rydeen, we responded by offering camera systems that allow customers to add this technology to their vehicles, even if it wasn't originally equipped. The CM-V90 AHD 1080P rearview camera not only provides a wider and clearer view but also builds on the standard, giving you a complete view of what is behind you and also able to face straight down for complete bumper view, offering enhanced options for everyone—from commercial vehicles to traditional family sedans," said Ruben Torres, National Sales Manager at Rydeen Mobile Electronics.

ESB Audio’s Novemila 9000 Speaker Series has won the coveted 2024-2025 EISA Award for in-car high-end component audio. This annual award celebrates new products that combine the most advanced technology, desirable features, and functional ergonomics, with best-inclass performance. EISA highlights products most likely to be appreciated by consumers seeking versatility, style, and performance. To win the EISA Award, ESB’s Novemila 9000 Series had to pass a comprehensive, multi-step judging process taking place over several months.
“We’re honored to have our new Novemila speaker line recognized with such a prestigious award”, said Chirs Bennett, ESB’s Director of US Sales. “There has been a lot of excitement from our retail partners and sound quality competitors about these speakers and this award.”
The Novemila 9000 Series consists of some of the most technologically advanced car speakers ever produced. Technology and design come together in a new and unusual aesthetic, thanks to elements like the iconic “flowers faceplate”, which is not only aesthetic, but also functions as an acoustic lens for the tweeter dome. Like the tweeter, the 165-millimeter woofer has also been designed to keep air flow under control. An oversized neodymium magnet helps to achieve perfect and homogeneous saturation of the magnetic gap for the benefit of the voice coil stroke. Always immersed in constant magnetic flux, this reduces distortion and increases dynamics. The carbon fiber membrane of the 9000 Series midranges and mid-woofer are made under vacuum in an autoclave, a high cost but efficient technology. These and many other features are an expression of ESB’s innovation and dedication to producing classleading car speakers.
ESB Audio is an Italian speaker company with over a half century of electroacoustic history. Over the last 55 years, ESB navigated the winding road of high fidelity (home and automotive) through all its evolution, acquiring a wealth of experience and knowledge that is rarely encountered elsewhere. It has been an amalgamation of talented people, hard work, significant investment, and keen insights that have brought the new Novemila 9000 Series to fruition.
EISA- the European Imaging and Sound Association - is comprised of 56 technology magazines and websites from 27 countries, representing the world’s largest independent collaboration of experts in multimedia technologies. For over 40 years, EISA has been selecting the most innovative, cutting-edge products for its EISA Awards which are internationally recognized.
The complete 9000 Series 3-way component system consists of the Novemila 9.6W woofer, Novemila 9.3M midrange, and Novemila 9.1T-28 tweeter. The set carries a retail price of $3,899.99 and is available in the US through ESB authorized installers. For specifications and more information, visit https://www.esbcar.com/9000-series
