The automotive and/or vehicular camera system provides visual sensing devices (102) for data generation and storage of visual information. On a vehicle (100) or cargo container, cameras or other visual sensing devices (102) may be placed strategically in order to provide a wide field of view. Data generated by the cameras may be transmitted by wire (106) or otherwise to a central processing/memory/data capturing system (104). A power supply (122) may supply power to both the processing and memory system (104) as well as cameras (102). An interface (124) may allow data and instruction transfer to and from the data capturing system (104). A variety of protocols can be used to achieve communication between the individual elements of the present invention and monitoring of other signals, events, and statuses may be achieved.
