What is Mobile Digital Video Recorder (MDVR)?

Mobile Digital Video Recorder (MDVR)

Vehicle-mounted Hard Disk Recorder (referred to as MDVR), a mobile digital video recording solution, is mainly used to monitor and manage mobile operators. It is a key device to ensure fleet operations. As a representative product in this category, YUWEI MDVR F6 is a waterproof on-vehicle intelligent video terminal built based on industrial-grade core high-speed processing chips. Specifically designed for commercial fleets, construction machinery, ships and other special vehicles and transportation tools, it integrates multiple intelligent functions and reliable performance to provide comprehensive protection for fleet operations.

Core Advantages of MDVR

①　Safeguards the personal safety of employees and the protection of vehicle assets, avoiding operational risks through multi-dimensional monitoring.

②　Seamlessly integrates with tracking units, combining 4G broadband multimedia wireless transmission and WIFI communication to achieve efficient data linkage.

③　In-depth analysis of key events during driving, relying on functions such as ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) and DSM (Driver Status Monitoring) to accurately trace the truth of events.

④　Real-time monitors and regulates driver behavior, reducing potential safety hazards through various alarms such as fatigue driving, distraction and speeding.

⑤　Provides high-resolution video recording and playback, supporting the new generation H265 video standard to balance storage efficiency and image clarity with a user-friendly interface.

⑥　Supports professional installation and hardwired connection, with an IP67 protection rating. It can withstand complex vehicle conditions such as operating temperatures from -30℃ to 70℃, vibration and unstable voltage.

Core Functions of MDVR

①　Can connect up to 6 internal and external camera channels, paired with 2 audio inputs to achieve comprehensive audio and video intelligent monitoring.

②　Supports timely event playback, with functions such as scheduled recording, event recording and alarm recording for quick recall of key scenes.

③　Based on gravitational acceleration sensing and intelligent algorithms, it automatically captures sudden situations such as collisions, lane departures and excessively close distances to the vehicle ahead.

④　Immediately issues an alarm when tampering, accidents, triggering of the panic button or equipment failure occurs. It also supports Uninterrupted Power Recording (UPR) to ensure no loss of video data.

⑤　Synchronously views recorded video clips and corresponding map locations, relying on GPS/Beidou dual-mode positioning (optional RTK high-precision positioning) to achieve accurate positioning and trajectory tracing.

⑥　Equipped with low-voltage protection function and patented storage medium protection device to prevent arbitrary removal of SD cards, ensuring vehicle battery safety and data security.

High-Resolution Video Recording and Storage Capabilities

YUWEI MDVR F6 adopts H264/H265 video compression technology, supporting up to 6 channels of 720P analog high-definition video capture. The image resolution can be selected between 720P and D1. Compared with H264, H265 technology improves compression efficiency by 20%~50% in the same scenario, greatly saving storage space and transmission traffic while ensuring smooth playback in low-bandwidth environments.

In terms of storage, the device supports SD card storage (maximum capacity up to 2TB) and can control M.2 solid-state drives, providing stable and reliable local storage. It also comes with sufficient cloud storage space to meet long-term retention needs. Its unique streaming media file system can effectively prevent data tampering, ensuring video and data security in on-vehicle environments.

Flexible Installation Methods and Layout Requirements

①　Front-view lens (ADAS camera): Records road conditions within the driver's field of vision. Installation requires calibration, and it is recommended to be aligned with the center line of the steering wheel to ensure monitoring accuracy.

②　In-vehicle view (DSM camera): Records the interior of the cab and the driver's status. It is preferably installed on the instrument panel in front of the steering wheel, with a left-right deviation not exceeding 25° and a pitch angle controlled between 5° and 15°.

③　Multi-directional extended installation: Supports various layouts such as rearview mirror mounting, which can cover areas such as the vehicle side and carriage according to needs. Cameras are connected via M12 interfaces for stable power supply.

In addition, the device's communication antenna should be installed discreetly near the car window, away from sensitive electronic equipment and metal, with a distance of not less than 50cm from the positioning antenna. The receiving surface of the positioning antenna should face upward, ensuring a 60° sky view. It is recommended to install it under the front windshield, on the roof or other unobstructed positions to ensure accurate positioning.

Value-Added Functions and Reliable Performance

①　Intelligent assisted driving: ADAS functions can realize forward collision warning, lane departure warning, pedestrian collision warning, etc. DSM functions can identify behaviors such as fatigue driving, distraction, smoking and making phone calls, fully safeguarding driving safety.

②　Cloud and remote management: Supports "cloud guardianship" functions such as remote fault diagnosis, program maintenance and parameter configuration, improving the efficiency of equipment installation and maintenance while saving time and costs. It also has remote monitoring, intercom and TTS voice broadcast functions to facilitate real-time fleet dispatching.

③　Comprehensive vehicle monitoring: Equipped with functions such as electronic fencing, mileage statistics, blind spot reporting, driving behavior analysis (sudden acceleration, sudden deceleration, etc.) and road speed limit warning to assist in refined fleet management.

④　Stable and durable design: Adopts a highly integrated single-board design, equipped with 3 super capacitors. It can maintain power supply for 2~3 seconds after power failure to save complete video. The static current is less than 2mA, supporting zero-power sleep and ignition wake-up, balancing energy saving and reliability.
