The Garmin Dash Cam 47/57/67W is a compact in-vehicle recording device designed to enhance driving safety and provide evidence in case of incidents. It functions primarily as a dash camera, continuously recording video footage while the vehicle is in operation. Beyond basic recording, the device integrates several advanced driver awareness features and offers seamless connectivity with a smartphone for enhanced control and data management.
The core function of the Garmin Dash Cam is to record video footage of your journeys. Upon powering on, the device automatically begins recording to a memory card, capturing a continuous loop of video. This footage is crucial for documenting events on the road, such as accidents or other incidents. The camera is equipped with a sensor that detects potential incidents, automatically saving video segments 15 seconds before and after the detected event, ensuring critical moments are preserved. Users can also manually save video recordings at any time by pressing a dedicated button.
In addition to standard video recording, the device offers a "Travelapse" feature, which captures a fast-motion video of your trip, allowing for a condensed and shareable summary of your travels. Audio recording is also an integrated feature, capturing sound within the vehicle, which can be toggled on or off as needed. The device can also take still photos from the viewfinder, saving both a photo and a video clip to the memory card.
For vehicle security when parked, the "Parking Guard" feature automatically records video when an incident is detected while the vehicle is turned off. When connected to a Wi-Fi network, the camera can send notifications to your smartphone about these parked incidents. This feature can be configured to run on the camera's internal battery or an external power source, with adjustable monitoring times and the option to record before an incident is detected.
The Garmin Dash Cam also incorporates several driver awareness features and alerts designed to promote safer driving. These include a "Forward Collision Warning System" (FCWS) that alerts you if you are following too closely to the vehicle ahead, a "Lane Departure Warning System" (LDWS) that warns if you unintentionally drift out of your lane, and a "Go Alert" that notifies you when stopped traffic ahead begins to move. Furthermore, the device can alert you to upcoming red light and speed cameras, providing timely warnings to help you adhere to traffic laws.
The Garmin Dash Cam is designed for user-friendly operation, both through its on-device interface and its integration with the Garmin Drive smartphone app.
Maintaining the Garmin Dash Cam involves a few simple steps to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
