It probably isn't used as sensor input. It's probably an off-the-shelf dashcam (the cheapest they could find that could also record the driver) added as an afterthought. It also wouldn't surprise me if the windshield were tinted, which would make the dashcam recording even darker (since it's behind the windshield).
