The big opening picture has a corresponding small rear quarter window. I wonder if they are indeed making a sliding door that's extra large.

And that one extra-large opening is on the driver side? That's kind of weird. I wonder if the picture is mirrored then.

I think it's a super wide angle/fisheye lens that's kind of manipulated in post to make it look larger but still square

Unless they made a longer wheelbase version I don't see how its possible, the door starts at the rear wheel in all the exterior shots with normal rear window sizes. Even correcting for a fisheye lens is just the outer edges, the whole center of the frame has been stretched

Who needs a front camera for a normal vehicle? I put one on my Jeep for rock crawling but there's zero use for one otherwise.

Isn't it useful for parking too?

It probably doesn't help much for Richmond C9's though lol~

360 camera so nice for parallel parking, can get really close to car in front to maximize the turning space

100%. Having actual cameras to see down to the millimeters of spacing between bumpers makes parallel parking so much faster.

Way more effective than w/ traditional sonar.

Yea then you scrape the shit out of the side of your car cuz you only focus on the back camera, and not look at your side mirrors, I've seen it happen irl

360º camera is such a god-send. I esp like using the top view to help me when it comes to parking.

Too bad I can't actually afford to buy any new cars that come standard with it -- and no, I won't buy a Nissan, even when many of their models come standard with 360º camera lol~

I got me tiny wife all this 360 camera / sensor / beeping / autonomous braking / etc etc etc garbage and she still drives it off curbs and scuffs wheels like Yray going offroading in his Range. I dont know why SSM CDC wants her RX. I wouldnt touch that thing with a 10 foot pole. Any female driven cars is an instant NOPE from me.

Are you saying that you managed to retrofit an aftermarket 360 degree system?

Can you recommend one? My wife is constantly driving off and into curbs and the biggest problem is that she can't comprehend how it is happening. A 360 camera would at least show her what's happening lol.

No, I am absolutely not suggesting that. It's just that I have briefly driven a few cars with 360º camera for a few days in the past, and the technology has pretty much instantly won me over the first time I used it to parallel park.

Now I hate parking my own car in any sort of remotely tricky situation bcos it is an old school zero parking camera/sensor shxtbox. Le wifey's SUV has a backup camera, and that makes parking somewhat easier. But I still hate doing it.

Atoto S8 with the 360 camera basically kinda does this, when you back up it takes the image and draws a 180 degree image.

Useful how? I've never felt the need for a camera up front because I know how to park lol. The front end is right there a couple feet from you.

Front camera is useful if you have a low car and carbon fiber lip
