What does a dashcam do differently from a normal camera? Why can't you just hit record?

It would be fine for short drives, but anything longer than 10 or 15 minutes needs to have smarter handling of these larger video files, which would quickly swamp your storage. Think about using it everyday for a 30 minute commute back and forth.

A dashcam will loop recordings, saving with a button or some kind of gyro event
