What is the "Sentry Loop Recording" feature? Does it increase power consumption?

Official answer

The "Sentry Loop Recording" feature continuously monitors the vehicle's surrounding environment. However, it only automatically triggers and records video clips of a period before and after an event when a potential security event (such as body vibration or people approaching) is detected. These clips are saved separately as important events to prevent them from being overwritten. Invalid videos that do not trigger events are loop-overwritten, thereby efficiently utilizing storage space.

The principle of the "Sentry Loop Recording" feature is similar to that of a dashcam. Its core lies in optimizing the recording and storage strategies. Compared with conventional event-triggered recording solutions, it does not increase extra power consumption, so please rest assured.
