Finally, a mobile experience to match our Tesla experience.
We've built an amazing event timeline and video player experience that stitches Tesla's 60-second video clips into complete events. Easily browse through hours of video for that "special" moment—at 2x, 5x or 10x speed.
Capture amazing Tesla DashCam and Sentry events, brag about them to friends and family, or submit them as insurance claim evidence.
The fewest steps to instant gratification compared to any other solutions. No more hassle plugging and unplugging USB sticks. Quickly and effortlessly watch and share Tesla videos wirelessly on your mobile phone.
Bored at the charging station? Why not watch some DashCam and Sentry Videos?
Everything you want to know.
The Sentry DashCam app and Wireless Bridge (codename "Elon-1") enable Tesla owners with auto-pilot cameras to wirelessly watch and share their Tesla Sentry (alarm) and DashCam videos.
Once plugged in, the Wireless Bridge stores Sentry and DashCam events on a micro SD card, while providing WiFi connectivity and API services for the mobile app. Owners can watch recorded videos wirelessly on their phones without ever disconnecting the device.
We stream the video to the phone over WiFi without servers or a trip to the cloud by design - to save on costs, but the product architected was designed for 5G, MaaS, and SaaS implementations.
Let’s be honest, the current solutions are clunky and don’t mirror the Tesla ownership experience we've grown to love. They require custom USB flash drive formatting and configuration, awkward digging into our center consoles, and then plugging and unplugging the USB flash drive to transfer, save, encode, and upload our videos. Who has time for this?
This frustrating process takes a lot of time and robs us of the instant gratification of publishing our Sentry and DashCam videos from the comfort of our couch.
We’re Tesla owners, and we know when we step into our Teslas, we step into the future. Downloading and watching our Sentry and DashCam videos should feel the same.
