[BlackVue Cloud] How to Use Event Live Auto-Upload

Update: July 23, 2018.

Event Live Auto-upload is a Cloud feature for the DR900S SeriesDR750S Series and DR650S Series dash​cams.

Let’s see what it is about.

The concept

When an Event is created (impact detected or Manually triggered), Event Live Auto-upload lets your Cloud-compatible BlackVue save a live video stream from a camera of your choice (front or rear/interior) to the Cloud server. 

What BlackVue Cloud already does 

With BlackVue Cloud, you can already receive Push Notifications on your phone when an impact on your parked vehicle is detected by your dashcam. You can even check right away what is going on around your car from the point of view of your front or rear camera with Remote Live View as seen in this video:

 

Why add Event Live Auto-Upload?

Depending on the area you live in, you might be more worried about dash​cam thieves than about hit-and-runs. Imagine a scenario where a thief steals your dash​cam. After breaking into your vehicle, the thief notices the camera and decides to take it to eliminate incriminating evidence. Sure enough, you might have received a notification when the gravity sensor of the BlackVue detected the break-in. You might even have checked the Remote Live View. But what if you didn’t notice the alert message or were yourself far away from your vehicle? What if you would simply rather not confront the thief alone? In most situations, with your dash​cam gone, so is the evidence. Nothing to show the police, in case you thought of alerting them.

Enter Event Live Auto-upload.

Providing evidence in case of theft

With Event Live Auto-upload, since the live stream is saved in real time in the Cloud, you could still have incriminating video proof to show the police–especially if you use an interior-facing camera.

Luckily, BlackVue dashcams are often stealthy enough to stay unnoticed by unsuspecting thieves. However, as the general public’s awareness of dashcams grows, this could unfortunately change. 

In a way, Event Live Auto-upload allows you to stay ahead of the thieves.
