Default Front Mounted Camera

Could the product from VAIS Technology be used to interface a front mounted camera?

The Inifinti EX concept has both front and rear mounted cameras. The idea behind (pun intended) a front mount camera is for parking. My guess is that more people run too far up on parking stop, then back into things. The front camera would also show a brighter picture in the dark. If the camera had a telescopic lens on it that could be adjusted, you could check for those cars with the red lights on top...

It'd be nice to install a infrared camera and have it turned on while at night to provide night vision.

I want a camera that can zoom all the way in on cars near me. For instance -

See a hot chick in a car near you... zoooooooom in....
realize she's not as hot as you thought... zooooooom out..
drive away.
