The Collective – as this is the ‘temporary’ mounting, the connection bundle comprising the five flying leads from the DVR module and the incoming rear camera, GPS, RC and power supply cables all come in from their (temporary) external runs, congregating between the upper front side panel plastic and the outer shape of the left side windscreen spoiler. Video Compression Mode settings – either H.264 (Advanced Video Coding) or H.265 or High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) are selectable; both have advantages and disadvantages DVR Module/Front Lens – the front lens or camera is integrated into the front of the DVR module housing. The lens is not rotatable, but orientation can be flipped 180 degrees using the ‘Settings’ access on the INNOVV App to accommodate module placement and orientation.
There is no doubt that the K5 is innovative and it is obviously different, at least when compared to the current INNOVV K2 product, and not just because it uses a 4K front camera but also because the 4K front lens is actually integrated with the DVR module. The first question is easily answered – a product like the INNOVV K5 might wear the ‘dash cam’ label, but in reality, these systems provide an excellent return on the investment as they have so many useful (and valuable) applications whether capturing the traffic/road environment, providing a hi-resolution (almost 360) video travelogue or anything in between – “Action Cam” is a much better moniker…

Because what I found was, you know the odd bug here and there that would actually hit the lens would just kind of make a very tiny blurry spot, as the camera is focusing beyond that as opposed to the camera focusing on the bugs or having just a ton of grime right in front of that lens. Bit Rate – the (video) sampling Bit Rate (bits transmitted per second) is also selectable: Low, Normal, Height (High) and Maximum – the setting currently used. This setting has more of a resource bill, but (can) provide better overall video capture. Additional comments regarding settings and other amplifying information is also provided in the respective sections below. This grouping isn’t tidy, but it is functional and accessible. A large section of 2-inch heat shrink and a couple of zip ties keep this bundle together and secured, with the WiFi antenna housing on its short thin cable sitting by itself, nestled between the bundle and side plastic.

With the camera module facing forward and the top fitted or logo side up, the access port is on the right side; and if mounted upside down, the access port is then on the left side – this can be important depending on left or right-hand traffic, preferred installation side (road or curb) and of course, access to the port under which the micro-USB port and storage media card reside… Once the WiFi connection is made, launch the INNOVV App. Current INNOVV users will see a familiar splash screen followed by the main interface or category screen using another familiar layout. But from this point on, depending on the camera system in use, the interface and features screens will vary for the system detected; one stop shopping as they say.
Time-Lapse Video settings – if continuous recordings are desired, then this setting is set to OFF, otherwise frame intervals of 100/200/300/500ms or 1s are provided forTime Calibration = ‘Cancel’ to leave the default system (GPS) synchronization or ‘Confirm’ to have the K5 system use smart device time I pondered maybe putting Velcro on it and mounting it on top of or below the camera depending on where I ultimately mounted the camera. What I did at the end of the day is I just zip-tied it to that little bundle of wires and it has worked flawlessly. I’ve had zero issues connecting or staying connected to the INNOVV app and I’m perfectly happy with it I’m just gonna leave it right where it is. This video is saved to the DCIM/Movie Folder with the letters ‘F’ and ‘R’ used in the file name to identify front and rear media files. Media stored in this folder is not protected, meaning that the oldest files will be overwritten as space is required for ongoing video recordings. DVR Module/Front Camera – in getting early insight into the K5 form, some initial concerns over the (potential) size and weight of the DVR module with an integrated front lens were expressed, along with (potential) placement issues. But the resultant form factor is small, light, and easy to work with although it does require more real estate and a strong mounting point. Note – see Change Summary Section at end of this submission for an update on those cable lengths that have been increased or have an (additional) extension available.
