Model X dash cam with V9?

[RixX]

I read that Model 3 will have the Dash Cam function with the new V9 software: Elon Musk on Twitter

Does the same go for Model X?

I would assume it'll apply to the entire Tesla fleet of AP2+ vehicles. Aside from the original tweet referencing a Model 3, there's been no indication that there'd be any limitation to just the 3 or any other vehicle.

Do you know which of the 3 forward cameras would do dashing, and how implemented? Saving to where, etc......

I'm eager to see if they'll add 360 camera view in V9. This will address blind spot and will help with curbside parking.

Nobody outside of the Tesla development team knows any such details right now.

I don't think we can expect 360 cameras, but hope for blind spot detection.

You can put the rear camera on the screen to help with lane changes. But that can be distracting for some.

I would love to see it, but only for parking. I have this in my X3 and hate that it is not in the X.

Believe it when you see it.....

Does that mean the Model X's come with a front dashcam already (like the rear camera) ? Or do I need to buy a third party dash cam to make the v9 update work ?

The newer model X's, like the S and the 3's, will use the center camera at the top middle of your windshield. You dont need to buy another camera, you just need to buy and format the USB thumb drive.

Have not seen this mentioned in this thread, but as of Software 2018.39.6, the built-in dashcam feature requires AP2.5 hardware (this requirement is true for both the Model S and Model X...all Model 3s produced to date are AP2.5). Specifically, this functionality isn't provided on cars with AP2 or AP1 (or pre-Autopilot, obviously).
