Holly Hill, FL – October 25, 2023 –iBEAM Vehicle Safety Systems by Metra Electronics® will display new safety and surveillance solutions at the 2023 SEMA show, October 31 to November 3 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. On display will be an adjustable spare tire camera kit, a universal multi-mount camera system, and a window-mounted 2K DVR. These products are designed to increase safety for a wide assortment of vehicles. Metra's main SEMA Show booth will be #10539 in the North Hall of the LVCC, and its off-roading and powersports products will be on display at booth #60031 in the West Hall.

Adjustable Spare Tire Camera Kit

Show attendees will have the opportunity to see the new TE-ASTCAM, an adjustable spare tire camera kit designed to provide drivers with a clear view of their surroundings while parking or reversing. The kit includes a multi-adjustable bracket, high-quality camera, and wiring to ensure a hassle-free installation. The versatile bracket of the TE-ASTCAM is specifically designed to mount securely to the factory studs of the spare wheel with over 200 vehicle applications. It offers an impressive range of adjustability, allowing drivers to position the camera exactly where they need it. The bracket's camera stem can be adjusted both side-to-side and up-and-down, providing drivers with optimal flexibility and customization options. Additionally, the head of the bracket is bendable to achieve the perfect angle adjustment for each vehicle.

Equipped with high-quality metal housing, the included camera delivers durability and longevity. Its 170-degree field of diagonal view ensures a wide coverage area, minimizing blind spots and providing a comprehensive perspective of the vehicle's surroundings. The camera also features parking guidelines, enabling drivers to accurately gauge distances and maneuver their vehicle with ease. With an IP67 rating, this camera is designed to withstand inclement weather, ensuring reliable performance even in challenging environments. Additionally, the TE-ASTCAM boasts excellent low-light capabilities with its 0.6 LUX night vision, allowing drivers to navigate safely in dimly lit areas or during nighttime parking.

Universal Multi-Mount Camera System

The TE-5MSC universal multi-mount camera system allows installers to choose the most suitable camera installation method, location, and viewing angle for their vehicle. This multi-mount safety and security camera system is a high-quality eyeball camera with five mounting options: a license plate bracket, rubber mount, angle mount, square mount, and flush mount for unmatched versatility. The TE-5MSC delivers exceptional image quality with the camera's PC7070D 1/4 CMOS sensor and an impressive pixel resolution to ensure sharp visuals. This durable camera is rated IP68 to withstand harsh environments and operates reliably in a wide range of temperatures. Its DC power source features a minimum requirement of 6V and a maximum of 16V, allowing for flexible powering options and easy integration with existing systems. With conservative power consumption and a low current draw, this camera ensures minimal power usage while providing superior performance. Drivers can switch between the video image and reverse image display to adapt to different scenarios, while selectable parking lines assist with parking and maneuvering.

Window Mounted 2K DVR

iBEAM will display a new TE-DVR-30 window-mounted 2K DVR that can conveniently capture potentially vital information related to traffic collisions or other incidents. The 2K video quality ensures that a vehicle's driving history will be recorded with license plates and street signs displayed legibly. This device can help protect drivers from liability in cases where video evidence needs to be presented in a court setting or for insurance purposes. This window-mount DVR plugs into a standard 12V outlet that is universal to most vehicles and can be installed forward or rear-facing. It supports up to a 128GB micro memory card (not included) to provide ample storage capability. Once the memory card is full, this DVR is designed to loop back to the beginning of the feed and start recording over the oldest content. This prevents users from manually deleting their old content to free up space on the memory card. A built-in G-force sensor detects collisions and automatically locks the stored video to prevent recordings from being overwritten once an incident has occurred.
