In this era of rapid technological change, the development of the automotive industry is like a speeding train, constantly refreshing our cognitive boundaries. However, with every technological innovation, there are always some products that were once all the rage quietly leaving the market, leaving a string of marks of the times. Today, let's focus on the electronic dog industry and the sudden changes in the dashcam market, and explore the stories behind them.
The inevitability of technological iteration
Back in the era when intelligent navigation was not yet popular, electronic dogs, as a "magic weapon" to avoid speed radar, were once a must-have for many car owners. With accurate warnings, it helped drivers avoid tickets, and once became a hot commodity in the market. However, with the rise of intelligent navigation software, industry giants such as Kailide have not been spared the impact of large-screen car navigation, and the electronic dog has gradually lost its "pilot" status and finally faded out of the public eye.
At the same time, the rise of dash cams stems from the pursuit of road safety and truth. In the days when there is no standard configuration, it is a powerful weapon for car owners to prove their innocence and prevent collisions. However, with the introduction of new regulations requiring all new cars to be equipped with EDR (Event Data Recorder), the fate of dashcams has also been reversed.
The advent of the EDR era
EDR, often referred to as the "black box" of the car, not only records basic driving videos, but also captures key information such as vehicle status and driving data in detail. Its appearance is a major upgrade in driving safety, which means that every acceleration, braking, steering, and even the detailed data of the moment of the accident can be accurately recorded. This not only makes the determination of responsibility for traffic accidents more scientific and fair, but also makes the original function of the dash cam a little redundant.
The popularization of EDR system is an inevitable product of the development of the era of intelligent vehicles. In the United States, this configuration has long become the norm, and although the domestic market started late, it is also driven by the wave of smart cars and quickly follows up. For consumers, this means that there is no need to worry about installing additional dash cams when buying a car, and it also reflects the gradual maturity and improvement of domestic car culture.
Industrial upgrading and transformation
The decline of dongles and dashcams is not due to their own problems, but to the fact that the times have chosen smarter, more integrated solutions. The vigorous development of smart cars not only integrates navigation, driving records, panoramic images and other functions, but also introduces cutting-edge technologies such as intelligent voice interaction, making the car evolve from a single means of transportation to an intelligent mobile space integrating entertainment, safety and convenience.
This series of changes is actually a profound baptism of the traditional automobile industry. It reminds us that no matter how brilliant an industry is, it needs to keep up with the pace of the times, and continue to innovate and transform. Although those former "celebrities" have withdrawn from the stage of history, their contributions to the development of the industry should not be forgotten. It is the rise and fall of these industries that has pushed the entire automotive industry forward towards a more intelligent, safe and humanized direction.
Summary:
The dismal exit of electronic dogs and dash cams is the result of the combined effect of scientific and technological progress and market demand. Their disappearance has witnessed the arrival of the era of intelligent vehicles, and also heralded the rise of a more intelligent and integrated automotive ecosystem. In this process, we have seen the iteration and upgrading of the industry, and we have also felt how technology is quietly changing our way of life. In the future, there may be more once familiar products replaced by emerging technologies, but each transformation will be another milestone in the progress of human civilization.
