Alpine HCS-T100 - 360° camera system

HCS-T100 Camera system

Upgrade your motorhome or camper van with the HCS-T100 Alpine 360° HD camera system and get an excellent overview when parking or maneuvering your vehicle.
The new system includes four HD cameras with high-quality silver-colored mounting brackets, the camera control unit, the control center and all necessary cables to complete the installation
When using an Alpine infotainment system with touchscreen of the latest generation (e.g. Halo9 and 11), you can control the camera settings directly on the screen (this Function will be available after a software update in summer 2023). Third-party screens (analog video signal and control via the remote control) can also be used.
The system can be expanded with up to four additional cameras for further views: Monitor your pets traveling with you in the rear of the motorhome, keep an eye on the grey water disposal or the clearance height on narrow bridges.
Get a maximum overview from a bird's eye view with the top view and use the split screen setting. This allows 2 camera perspectives to be displayed on the screen at the same time. The system also eliminates dangerous blind spots when turning and thus helps to avoid accidents.

The Alpine 360° HD camera experience

360° camera systems are very popular in new and high-quality cars ordered ex works. Now you can retrofit these very useful camera systems for motorhomes and camper vans, as it is hardly possible to order this system from the factory. The new HCS-T100 camera system from Alpine offers maximum overview and safety and can be retrofitted in almost any motorhome. Four HD cameras, distributed on the front, sides and rear of the vehicle, enable the camera control unit to create a complete 360° image of the vehicle's surroundings.

Top view - bird's eye view

The top view shows your motorhome and the surroundings directly from above from a bird's eye view. This gives you a maximum overview when parking or maneuvering your vehicle to avoid accidents and reduce stress for the driver.

Split screen - split screen

One of the main features of the HCS-T100 camera system is the ability to use 2 camera views at the same time. For example, you can display the top view and an angle view in a split-screen configuration. This gives a better feeling of the entire driving situation.

Four HD wide-angle cameras

The scope of delivery includes four HD wide-angle cameras with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels and viewing angles of 190° (H) / 119° (V). Each camera is supplied with a high-quality silver-colored mounting bracket that can be used universally. A protective grommet is pre-mounted on the cable for the cable feed through the vehicle's outer wall. The cable length is 1x 5 m for the front camera, 2x 10 m for the side cameras, 1x 18 m for the rear camera and is therefore sufficiently dimensioned for almost all motorhomes.

Selection of the camera angle

You can switch the view of the camera angles using the cable remote control supplied. From summer 2023, a software update will make it possible to control all settings and the camera angle completely via touchscreen on a compatible Alpine infotainment system with touchscreen . If you use the HCS-T100 with a third-party monitor, you can control all settings via the remote control.

Resolve blind spots

This camera system contributes significantly to driving safety as it practically eliminates blind spots. When you activate your vehicle's left or right indicator, the camera image will immediately turn on and show a full view of the side of your vehicle in the direction you intend to turn. Cyclists or objects will not be missed when turning.

Additional cameras

You can connect up to four additional cameras for additional individual viewing angles. Check on your pets or children in the back of the motorhome, keep an eye on the grey water disposal, check the clearance height on narrow bridges - the possibilities are endless. Additional accessories will be available for this in the future.

Compatible with many motorhomes and camper vans

The HCS-T100 360° HD camera system can be installed in virtually any motorhome or camper van as it is designed for universal use. The length of the camera cables is very generous, so that they are sufficient even for very large motorhomes (front camera: 5 m, side cameras: 10 m, rear view camera 18 m).

Sale and installation by certified dealers

The installation of the HCS-T100 camera system must be carried out by certified dealers and requires special calibration tools and software. System calibration without this special knowledge and software is not possible. You can find specially trained dealers in our dealer search.
