1. An apparatus comprising:
at least one processor;
a first camera coupled to the at least one processor, the first camera having a first lens with a first field of view and a first angle;
a second camera coupled to the at least one processor, the second camera having a second lens with a second field of view and a second angle, the second field of view being different from the first field of view, the first angle being wider than the second angle; and
a mounting assembly configured to attach the apparatus to an interior window of a vehicle,
wherein:
when the apparatus is mounted with the mounting assembly, the first field of view and the second field of view at least partially overlap, and the first field of view is substantially perpendicular to a central longitudinal axis of the vehicle,
the first camera has a first optical axis,
the second camera has a second optical axis, and
the first optical axis crosses the second optical axis in at least one crossing point of a crossing plane.
