Could you build this?
Partial Building a standard mobile video recorder is straightforward, but continuous 4K loop recording with sensor logging (G-force/GPS overlays) without severe device overheating or storage bottlenecks requires low-level mobile camera and media pipeline tuning.
What it would actually take: A viable implementation needs native iOS (AVFoundation, CoreMotion, CoreLocation) and Android (CameraX/Camera2, MediaCodec, SensorManager) code to manage video buffers, write continuous rolling circular files, and multiplex sensor telemetry metadata into video tracks. The technical hurdles include managing thermal throttling during 4K encoding and ensuring atomic file saves upon crash/impact detection.
