The SmartyCam 3 Sport is a solid-state digital video camera that can be used as a stand-alone camera or connected to an AiM data logger for brilliant videos with data overlay. All of the information from the data logger can be overlaid on screen and recorded as part of the video footage -- no syncing necessary later.
As a stand-alone camera, the SmartyCam 3 records brilliant, wave-free 1920x1080P HD 30 FPS racing videos. Connect the SmartyCam 3 to an AiM data logger (anything from a Solo2 DL or MyChron5 to an EVO5 logger) and you can expand the overlay to include information from those sources. When connected to a GPS09 Module (sold separately) or to a GPS-enabled logger, the GPS data gets embedded in the video file as well. When you import the data file and the video file into RaceStudio 3, the two files will automatically sync so you can see WHAT happened, exactly WHEN it happened. No more guessing about whether the driver caused something to happen, or if the driver reacted to something happening!
Records true HD video to your MicroSD memory card (not included; supports up to 2 TB cards). Battery lasts less than 20 minutes, so connection to a logger or vehicle power is required*. Waterproof for use on open cars, motorcycles, and personal watercraft. The wide-angle (84°) field of view on this camera is ideal for open vehicles or mounting to the windshield on sedans. (Mounting this version to the rollbar or main roll hoop behind the driver in a sedan will get a lot of roof, floor, and driver in the shot). The built-in rear-facing preview screen makes aiming the camera easy. The improved sapphire glass lens (similar to a watch crystal) is much harder than the glass used on previous generations for greater resistance to rock chips. A standard 1/4-20 female thread on the bottom accepts any standard camera mount (sold separately).
Weighs only 7.1 oz (200g) including battery. Measures 3 5/16" Wide x 2 5/16" High x 1 7/8" deep including lens (80mm W x 59mm H x 47mm D)**. Kit includes SmartyCam 3 Sport with the standard 67° angle lens and internal microphone, built-in battery, 2 meter CAN cable, powered 2-port CAN Data Hub*, and AC charging adapter (North American plug type). Does not include memory card or camera mount. Race Studio 3 software is always available as a free download from AiM.
*The included CAN Data Hub has two wires for direct connection to vehicle DC power (9-15V DC). This method of powering the camera is required when connecting to a Solo2 DL, MyChron5, or a GPS09 Moduule without a logger. It can also be used to power the camera without connecting to any other equipment.
**Our measurements include the knob on the side which seals the memory card door, the threaded camera mounting boss on the bottom, and the front lens. Case alone measures 72mm W x 54mm H x 37mm D.
