So we encourage you to join (or start) special-interest and regional-based Rivian clubs at: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/group-categories/clubs-groups.1/
I do not know the technical number, but when I drove the R1T the cameras were very clear, I did not notice any quality issues.Does anyone know what the camera quality is on the vehicles? After watching the TAT and Breckenridge videos, the video quality didn't seem that great. It actually looked kinda grainy and low res. Anyone know what the camera quality is?
In lay terms, yes.Is it possible the cameras themselves are of high quality, but the software/compression program or whatever is just lacking? (IDK how computers work)

Fingers crossed the hardware is fine, and it’s just a software issue that can be fixed OTA
I can't imagine them launching at this point with a glitchy camera system unless it software driven and fixed somewhat quickly with an OTA. A $70k+ vehicle should be able to master what you'd get in vehicles half the price.That's what @CarterGee was thinking.
Like CarPlay and a 360 degree camera view?I can't imagine them launching at this point with a glitchy camera system unless it software driven and fixed somewhat quickly with an OTA. A $70k+ vehicle should be able to master what you'd get in vehicles half the price.
I just had a test drive in Seattle and had the same experience. The backup camera looked fine but the front camera was grainy. The Rivian guy mentioned that updates were coming out weekly and improving these things so I would guess the front will be clear before widespread deliveries occur.I had the opposite experience in Sonoma. The front camera image quality was quite bad.
I know people are hyped but most likely many of these glitches will be present to some extent on customer cars for a while.I can't imagine them launching at this point with a glitchy camera system unless it software driven and fixed somewhat quickly with an OTA.

I agree on the 360 view, it's not all that hard to do. Don't know if it's patents or something else but at least the cameras are on the vehicle so software updates can stitch views together.Like CarPlay and a 360 degree camera view?
