Sound: it is present in the most budgetary models. The more often and louder the signal is sent, the closer the object.
Digital mode: the distance to the nearest obstacle simply appears on the screen. Also you get information about the location of this object.
Choosing parking system with a rear-view camera is a more advanced option. On the screen you get full information in the visualization format regarding what is happening out of sight. Some models are able to display even the trajectory of traffic.

The insertion chamber is mounted on the rear bumper, a special hole must be prepared for installation. The universal device can be installed in any place with the help of double-sided tape or screws. There are also special designs for the installation in the frame of the license plate.
Round-trip systems - this is the most advanced version, which allows you to get the most accurate and complete picture. For each car model, you need to select the device individually. All the information you get on the screen, without the possibility of sound notification. It is possible to get a picture with a top view or to view the recording from a specific camera.
