Japanese automotive dash cam technology developments

Overview

Japanese companies have introduced new dash cam technologies focused on enhanced visibility and ease of use. In September 2026, MAXWIN launched a pre-sale campaign for the MF-BDVR001-PRO, a helmet-mounted motorcycle dashcam. This device features dual wide-angle lenses for simultaneous front and rear recording and utilizes a smart sensor to automate recording based on movement.

By October 2026, the focus expanded to smart mirror-type dash cameras for vehicles. MAXWIN released the MDR-G014#X, which features an 11.26-inch IPS touchscreen and 60fps rear camera recording for smoother playback. Concurrently, Keiyo Engineering launched the AN-R138, a system incorporating a 360-degree camera for interior and exterior recording, HDR night vision, and a G-sensor-based parking monitoring system to detect impacts.
