Semi- ot. Trailer backing camera
Jerry Gibbs
Has anybody mounted or used a camera on the rear of a trailer with a monitor in the cab? Like backing a cargo trailer around several obstacles which cannot be seen be the driver with ordinary mirrors. It’s not always convenient to have a spotter and then there is still a communication problem.

I haven't done it, but what about using security-type camera like an Arlo, etc., and then having a phone or iPad with the camera's app in the truck? Might work.

I have seen them on RV's for awhile. Ford is now incorporating the wiring into the trailer plugs.
