Ex-Apple engineers built an ingenious wireless backup cam for your car

Terrific idea. The company is called Pearl, and the product is a backup camera built into a license plate frame, designed to replace the license plate frame on the rear of your car.

The RearVision license plate frame features two high-quality HD cameras and is self charging via a built in solar panel. It communicates, wirelessly, to an adapter you plug into your cars OBD port.

From the site:

Through advanced image processing, it analyzes the video streams to detect obstacles in your path, providing audible alerts and sending visual alerts to your phone.

There’s also a dash mount for your iPhone. The RearVision app streams video from the camera (via the dash mount) to your iPhone.
