Product Information

AI Collision Avoidance Device

The AI Collision Avoidance Device is a dash camera that uses computer vision and deep-learning technology to identify and warn drivers of potential collisions with vehicles, pedestrians, and lane lines. It is designed to increase driver awareness and promote safer driving habits.

Safety Notice

Before using the AI Collision Avoidance Dash Camera, please read the following safety notice carefully and take appropriate safety precautions:

• External matters such as stains, oil stains, water stains, dust, and fingerprints on the surfaces of the car windshield and camera may cause some anti-collision functions to fail. Keep both the windshield and camera surface clean and dry to ensure clear vision of the camera.
• Do not touch or play with the camera at will.
• Self-luminous, strongly-reflective, or high-brightness objects placed on the top of the dashboard may reflect images on the windshield, interfere with camera vision, and cause some anti-collision functions to fail.
• Some bad weather conditions, such as rain, snow, fog, haze, dust, typhoon, tornado, extreme cold and hot, may cause some anti-collision functions to fail.
• Some bad lighting conditions, such as backlighting, tunnels, culverts, forests, and scenes with insufficient lighting, and scenes with strong light such as high beam, spotlight, laser, flame, explosion, etc., may cause some anti-collision functions to fail.
• Some poor road conditions may affect the intelligent adjustment and lane departure warning device of the MINIEYE intelligent multi-function warning device.
• Some special types of vehicles may not be accurately identified by MINIEYE Intelligent Multi-Function Warning Device.
• Some people with special postures or special shaped clothes may not be accurately identified by MINIEYE Intelligent Multi-Function Warning Device.

APP Settings

In order to connect to device Wi-Fi, please list the App in your trust application list and make sure the device’s Wi-Fi is on.

Pair smart phone to UTOUR ADAS Dash Cam

1. After turning on the device. Launch UTOUR App, tap on the “device” page, then tap on “+” in the upper right corner
2. Choose your UTOUR Dash Cam from the network list(For Android systems, App will start to search Dash Cam network automatically. For iOS phone: turn on WLAN from “Settings->WLAN”). The Dash Cam’s default Wi-Fi name is “UTOURDevice ID”(Device ID can be viewed at the bottom of the package ). Enter the password, the default password is 12345678.
3. If your phone pops up a prompt box asking whether to continue using the wireless network, please select Continue.
4. When the connection is done, the device will ask for user authorization to ensure APP-to-Device communication security
5. In order to activate the collision avoidance functions successfully, please park your car on the horizontal ground (do not park on ramps or sloping roads).

APP Activation

1. The width of different car models will affect the AI anti-collision algorithm’s prediction of all collision risks. Please select your car type (for more accurate model selection, please optimize through the “anti-collision setting”).
2. The horizontal distance between the camera and the central ax is of the windshield determines the accuracy of AI anti-collision algorithm to construct ground models. Please use the scale line at the bottom of this manual for measurement.
3. The APP provides a real-time image for adjustment preview. You can confirm it according to the relevant operation guidelines, and the anti-collision functions will be activated upon completion.
4. After the anti-collision function is activated,it is required to complete more accurate adjustment calculation by collecting data on a specific road environment.Y ou need to keep the vehicle speed of more than 30km/h on a horizontal road with clear lane lines on both sides, and drive for 3-5 minutes without changing lanes. Then wait for its accurate adjustment to be completed in the following normal driving.

Important Note: If objects with strong reflection and whiter light (such as paper towels and decorations) are placed on the dashboard, they may cause interference to the algorithm in some driving scenes and affect your experience. Please be sure to avoid them.

Anti-Collision Functions Setting

Through “Device” Page – “Anti- Collision Settings”, you can enter to set various parameters of the anti-collision functions.

• Forward Collision Warning

• Ensure that the car is at a safe distance from the front car in all scenes.

• Headway Monitoring Warning

• Ensure that the car is at a safe distance from the front car in all scenes.

• Pedestrian Collision Warning

• Monitor the collision risk of urban targets such as pedestrians, bicycles and motorcycles.

• Lane Departure Warning

• Warning of dangerous lane changing behavior at high speed.

• Stop & Go

• Remind you to start when the front car leaves on a congested road.

• Harsh Acceleration/Cornering/Deceleration

• Warning of dangerous driving habits.

• Emergent Collision Warning

• Start recording when a collision is detected.

• Urban Forward Collision Warning

• Ensure that the car is at a safe distance from the front car in all scenes.

Warm Tip: In order to obtain a more accurate and safe driving e xperience, you can further improve the vehicle model data, reset the installation distance parameters, or re-adjust the image when the camera offset is too large.

Voice Command
Control the device through quick voice commands, such as: Take a picture, Turn off the recording, etc.

Preview / Playback
Connect to Dash Cam via direct Wi-Fi. Open the MINIEYE APP, tap on the “Device” page, to preview the current real-time display, and playback video in the previous 2 hours, or enter the photo album to view all driving record videos.

Warm Tip: The files saved in the device can be viewed, downloade d and shared through home page “Device “- “Device Album”.
Note: If the relevant functions of the product do not match the instructions, it is the reason for the version upgrade, and the actual version shall prevail.

3D road viewing

After the anti-collision functions work effectively, the monito r will display the road perception results analyzed by MINIEYE professional AI algorithm and display dangerous collision warnings.

• Safe distance index :This number is a time factor (seconds) obtained by calculating the absolute distance between the front car and the current speed of this car, the lo wer the number, the higher the risk of collision.
• Monitor display : With the upgrade of AI algorithm functions, the display contents will be upgraded from time to time. Please refer to the actual product.

Real-time road viewing

While the device is on, you can double-click the button on the top of the monitor to switch the 3D road viewing to a real-time viewing. At the same time, you can check the status of sound recording, mobile phone connection, memory card and GPS signal on the top bar.
