“According to the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration a final ruling has been issued requiring rear visibility technology in all new vehicles by May 2018.  This new rule enhances the safety of these vehicles by significantly reducing the risk of fatalities and serious injuries caused by back over accidents.  We have been one of the first companies in the aftermarket to provide safety accessories as part of our product offerings and with even more visibility being place upon driver safety products today we remain committed to continuously growing this product category to the aftermarket,” said Aron Demers, Vice President, VOXX Electronics Corporation.

The ACA801 and ACA501 cameras offer a high performance 1089 HD CCD lens with sensors that create high output results with cleaner, higher quality images than past CMOS cameras.  These cameras feature a 180-degree wide-angle field of view offering great visibility with virtually zero blind spots and the high sensitivity optics provide excellent low-light performance for maximum visibility after dark.  Additionally, both cameras feature selectable image: normal/mirror, waterproof rating of IP68 and are compatible with PAL/NTSC systems.

License Plate Mounted Back-Up Camera (ACA801) features selectable trajectory parking grid-lines that move for distance measurement and includes a license plate bracket and butterfly mount for easy installation.
