BlackVue's DR590-2CH-IR is a value-packed model from industry-leading dashcam manufacturer Pittasoft. The DR590-2CH-IR is a dual-lens (two-channel, for front-facing and interior-facing video) dashcam that records in Full HD 1080p resolution (from both lenses). The DR590-2CH-IR is identical to the DR590-2CH, except the DR590-2CH-IR (this model) is designed for front + inside recording, rather than front + rear recording of the DR590-2CH.

Night Vision Interior Recording

The new DR590-2CH-IR's infrared interior camera provides clarity even in complete darkness. The infrared camera secures the interior, driver, and passengers of your vehicle. The inconspicuous infrared LEDs automatically activate based on the level of ambient light inside the cabin of your vehicle. The camera’s spectacular clarity even in pitch black lighting conditions will ensure peace of mind for taxi and TNC/rideshare drivers.

If you utilize the BlackVue App or Viewer, you can further customize the way the DR590-2CH-IR operates; including 180° Image Rotation to accommodate your setup: if the image comes out upside down, just activate this feature and it will fix the image orientation. In addition to this, you can also control the LED settings, giving you complete stealth while driving or in Parking Mode.

The DR590-2CH-IR is an excellent choice for those who would like the higher 1080p video resolution (as compared to the DR430 and 470's 720p camera resolution), but who also may not necessarily need all the additional bells and whistles of some of the more advanced BlackVue cameras such as the Cloud-Capable DR750S-2CH-IR. However, like the DR750S-2CH-IR, the DR590-2CH-IR front camera does benefit from using Sony's newest STARVIS™ CMOS sensor, for superior video quality during the day and even at night when lesser dashcams may suffer.

BlackVue's new 590-2CH-IR is almost identical to the recently released DR590-1CH, except for the addition of a separate in-car camera on the DR590-2CH-IR that is designed to mount in the front or rear windshield and face inside, to record what is going on within your car. With simple plug-and-play operation, you can be safely recording both in front of and inside your car in a matter of minutes!

The DR590-2CH-IR deserves the consideration of fleet managers, Uber/Lyft drivers, parents of teen drivers, and casual drivers alike who may be looking for a reliable and affordable "front and in-car" audio and video recording solution.

If you're looking for the WiFi enabled version, check out the DR590W-2CH-IR. WiFi enables you to connect directly to the camera to configure settings, download videos to your phone without needing to remove the memory card from the dashcam (as is necessary on the non-WiFi DR590-2CH-IR).

A Note on Memory Cards

BlackVue dashcams include a 16, 32, 64, 128 or 256GB memory card. While the memory cards are removable and the card slots will accept other brands of memory cards, we strongly suggest the use of only BlackVue memory cards in the BlackVue dashcams, as the use of a non BlackVue memory card may cause performance issues and may void your manufacturer’s warranty.

BlackVue OEM memory cards are industrial-grade and are designed and tested to withstand the extreme temperatures and the constant read/write cycles of high quality dashcams. Consumer-grade memory cards such as those from SanDisk or Samsung are simply not up to the task. Stick with the OEM BlackVue memory cards to ensure your dashcams are always recording when it matters most.
