The Qubo smart dash cam has been priced at Rs. 4,290 and will be available to customers across leading online portals, as well as across offline channels through a wide network of dealer outlets.

The Qubo smart dash cam has been designed and developed in India, and comes with a user-friendly mobile app, available for both iOS and Android.

The Qubo dash cam comes with a user-friendly mobile application, available for both iOS and Android, and is equipped with 1080p@30FPS video quality for recording and live view. With a built-in 6-axis G sensor, it auto-detects a sudden shake/collision and locks the footage to "Event File" which the user can then access on the phone through the Qubo App. The Qubo smart dash cam comes with Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) technology gives it superior low light performance enabling the camera to capture details clearly in both the poorly and strongly illuminated areas in its field of view. Qubo's Dash Cam offers a wide-angle FOV to reduce blind spots and obtain more than 6 lanes wide coverage.

Qubo will also introduce portable tyre pressure inflators

Commenting on the announcement, Ujjwal Munjal, Vice Chairman, Hero Electronix said, "Keeping in line with our broader vision of creating customer-centric connected devices, Qubo has come a long way in the last two years. Today, Qubo has a wide range of connected smart home products that are enriching the lives of Indian consumers.
