Google made a dashcam app for cars with Android Automotive, but you can’t download it

Google has launched a dashcam application for Android Automotive that allows vehicles with built-in cameras to record their surroundings. This open-source app can be integrated by car manufacturers, addressing the gap where many vehicles lack a native dashcam feature. The app is designed to work with existing camera hardware and requires system-level permissions for integration into the vehicle's operating system. Recordings are stored in the vehicle's internal storage, but Google recommends saving them on external removable storage to reduce wear on internal components. Manufacturers can customize various parameters of the app, including storage allocation and user interface.

I played 5 games on an RTX 5070 vs RTX 5070 Ti gaming PC — is it worth paying extra

Both the RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti GPUs are being tested across five demanding PC games to evaluate their performance. The RTX 5070 is priced at £529, while the RTX 5070 Ti is priced at £729. In Cyberpunk 2077, the RTX 5070 achieved 17 FPS and the RTX 5070 Ti achieved 25 FPS at 4K Ultra settings without DLSS. With DLSS 4 enabled, both GPUs exceeded 100 FPS. In Forza Horizon 5, both GPUs showed similar 1% low performance. In Call of Duty Black Ops 6, the RTX 5070 showed limitations compared to the RTX 5070 Ti. Black Myth: Wukong revealed a noticeable performance gap between the two GPUs, while both performed well in Alan Wake II. The RTX 5070 Ti is recommended for multiplayer gaming, while the RTX 5070 may suffice for single-player experiences. Both GPUs offer enhanced performance for users with older hardware.
