These former Apple engineers are building a whole bunch of cool car tech - here's their first product

Pearl is the name of the startup, and RearVision is its first product. It's a backup camera and alert system that's easy to install. It's basically a license plate frame with two cameras.
Those cameras sync to your phone, either through Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. So start the Pearl app on your phone, and you'll see what's behind you as you back up your car.
