Cameras, brackets, harnesses, recorder or hub, and monitor for each vehicle, from your provider.
360° Camera System Installation
Multi-camera systems that cover the front, rear, and sides of your vehicles, so drivers can see blind spots and you have video from every angle.
What it is
Eyes on every side of the vehicle
A 360° system uses several wide-angle cameras, often one each on the front, rear, and both sides, wired back to a recorder or hub. Depending on the system, it can show the driver a stitched top-down view on an in-cab monitor, switch to the right camera when the turn signal or reverse is on, and record each angle for review on your platform.
These systems are common on vehicles with big blind spots: refuse and recycling trucks, construction and vocational trucks, box trucks, buses, and municipal fleets.
- Camera placement planned for each body type
- Weather-sealed connections and protected cable runs
- Recorder or hub mounted securely in the cab
- Trigger wiring for turn signals and reverse, where used
- Every view checked before sign-off

How a 360° install goes
These installs take longer than a single dashcam, so we plan vehicle downtime with you up front.
Survey
Look at each vehicle type and decide where cameras, cables, and the recorder go.
Mount
Install brackets and cameras at the angles the system needs.
Wire
Run and protect harnesses back to the recorder. Connect power and any trigger wires.
Calibrate & test
Line up the views, run the system’s calibration if it has one, and confirm recording on your platform.
What to have ready
Vehicle time
Each vehicle out of service long enough for the full install. We help you schedule around routes.
Body details
Body type and any upfitter drawings, so we know where we can mount and route cables.
Brand-neutral
We install the system you chose
Multi-camera setups vary a lot by maker. Some are add-on cameras for a telematics dashcam, some are stand-alone recorders, and some only drive an in-cab monitor. We follow the maker’s install guide for whichever one you use, including systems from providers such as CameraMatics, Samsara, Motive, Netradyne, and SmartDrive.
Records you get
- Photos
- Each camera and the recorder location
- Serials
- Recorder and camera serial numbers
- Views
- Confirmation of each camera angle
360° camera questions
How is this different from a dashcam?
A dashcam looks out the windshield, and sometimes at the driver. A 360° system adds cameras on the sides and rear so you can see and record around the whole vehicle.
How long does it take per vehicle?
Longer than a single camera, because cables run through the body and chassis. Time depends on the system and the vehicle. We give you estimates once we know both.
Do you drill into the vehicle body?
Most exterior cameras need mounting holes or brackets, and cables need a sealed path into the cab. We go over mounting points with you before we start, and follow any body or upfitter rules you have.
Can you add side and rear cameras to dashcams we already have?
Often, yes, if your camera system supports add-on cameras. Tell us which system you have and we’ll let you know.
Which vehicles is this best for?
Vehicles where the driver can’t see much around them: refuse trucks, box trucks, vocational and construction trucks, buses, and similar.
