Thinkware U3000 Pro 1CH 4K 30FPS with Hardwiring Kit

The Thinkware U3000 Pro records in true 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) at 30FPS, powered by Sony's latest STARVIS 2 IMX678 image sensor. This 8.4-megapixel sensor is specifically designed for automotive applications, offering superior performance in both bright daylight and low-light conditions. You can also switch to 2K QHD (2560 x 1440) at 60FPS if you prefer higher frame rates. The 150-degree field of view captures multiple lanes of traffic while maintaining clarity across the entire frame.

Whether you're recording license plates on the highway or navigating through city streets at night, the U3000 Pro delivers sharp, detailed footage. The combination of the STARVIS 2 sensor and improved processing ensures that critical details remain readable even in challenging conditions.

The U3000 Pro's standout feature is its dual radar-based parking surveillance that monitors your vehicle in an ultra-low-power state, instantly waking to record when motion is detected nearby. Compared to the standard U3000, the Pro features significant radar upgrades: higher frequency operation (61 Hz vs. 25 Hz), 10% lower power consumption (4.8mA vs. 7mA for even longer surveillance duration), and a larger detection area (0.1m to 10m vs. 0.8m to 5m).

The system captures 20-second buffered clips (10 seconds before and after each event) and uses significantly less power than traditional video-based motion detection, providing over 20 times longer surveillance duration, ideal for extended parking periods. Additional modes include Energy Saving (impact-only recording for maximum battery protection), Time Lapse (continuous 2fps recording for complete coverage), Motion & Impact Detection (traditional video-based monitoring for smaller movements), and Smart Parking Mode (automatic heat protection that switches to low-power impact-only recording when interior temperatures get too high).

For remote access, the optional LTE Module (sold separately) plugs into the camera to provide cellular connectivity through the THINKWARE CONNECTED app or web portal.

This allows you to receive push notifications if your parked vehicle is impacted, view live video remotely, check your vehicle's location and status, and review parking mode events from anywhere.

The service requires a subscription with potential carrier data charges, and note that the LTE Module and Interior Infrared Cabin Camera cannot be used simultaneously as they share the same expansion port.

The U3000 Pro now supports microSD cards up to 512GB, double the 256GB maximum of the standard U3000, and combined with H.265 HEVC compression, allows you to record for significantly longer periods before older footage gets overwritten.

The U3000 Pro includes an Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) with customizable audio alerts: Front Vehicle Departure Warning notifies you when the car ahead moves at stoplights, Forward Collision Warning monitors following distance at speeds above 25 mph to help prevent rear-end collisions, and Traffic Signal Alert (new in the Pro) immediately notifies you when lights change from red to green.

Built-in GPS provides real-time audio alerts for speed cameras and red-light cameras while tagging all video files with speed and location data for insurance claims or route documentation.

For durability, the camera uses supercapacitors instead of lithium-ion batteries and includes thermal sensors that safely power down the camera if temperatures exceed safe limits, then resume operation once cooled—extending the camera's lifespan in extreme climates.
