You bring up an interesting point.
I agree that an aftermarket, non-OEM camera with turning lines would likely be reactive rather than predictive. However, with the camera I have... the thin red lines turn with the wheel even when the car is not in motion (albeit, inaccurately... they turn much more rapidly in when turning the wheel to one direction vs the other). This would suggest that they are predictive.
On the other hand, the larger lines only turn when the car is in motion, suggesting that they are reactive (and their reaction is not particularly smooth with frequent corrections).
Question for those who know more about this stuff.... Can information other than just video be sent via the yellow RCA cable? i.e. can predictive information based on the turn of the wheel be sent to the camera? Somehow the info is getting from the wheel to the camera and I can't imagine its via the 12v. I didn't give it much thought at first... but now I'm curious.
Regarding preference. My jeep with OEM curving lines is great. My gf's beetle with static lines is fine. This aftermarket system with choppy, frequently re-correcting, reactive turning lines is just distracting. Maybe other aftermarket cameras are better. Or maybe there are adjustments I could do to improve this one...
