First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for multi-event capture comprising:
- continuously buffering driving event data in a plurality of event capture devices;
monitoring an output of a sensor coupled with an event detector for a threshold value;
identifying the threshold value in the output of the sensor;
sending a trigger signal from the event detector to at least two of the plurality of event capture devices; and
sending driving event data from at least two event capture devices to the event detector in response to receipt of the trigger signal.

Abstract
A multi-event capture system and method identifies driving events and coordinates event capture devices to capture and collect driving event data. At least one sensor is configured to detect a driving event. Event capture devices continuously capture driving event data. An event detector monitors the sensor output and has centralized authority to declare a driving event and coordinate subordinate event capture devices to send captured event data for the driving event to the event detector in response to a trigger signal. The event detector compiles the received data into a single event and sends the event to an evaluation server.

12. A system for multi-event capture comprising:
-
at least one sensor coupled with a vehicle, the sensor configured to detect a driving event; a plurality of event capture devices coupled with the vehicle, the event capture devices configured to capture driving event data; and an event detector coupled with the sensor and configured to monitor the output of the sensor for a threshold value, and to send a trigger signal to the event capture devices when the threshold value is detected, wherein the event capture devices are further configured to receive the trigger signal from the event detector and send driving event data to the event detector in response to the trigger signal. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
