I truly don’t understand how in 2023 with all the digitalization we have cars with backup cameras from at best a 2015 mid range smartphone. What’s preventing a manufacturer like bmw for an example from putting a high end sony sensor like the one on the iPhone 15 into their camera modules?

    Also these cameras are designed to stream data. For a very long time. And work in low light. If you took a raw stream from an iPhone or other modern sensor and put it in a car it probably wouldn’t look very good. Post processing really carries the image quality.

    I also feel like there would be some overheating problems if you left the car in reverse for an hour or so.
