DRIVING RECORDER
First Claim
1. A driving recorder installed on a vehicle and comprising:
- a processor having data computing and processing capabilities;
a register being electronically connected to the processor to temporarily store data that are computed and processed by the processor;
a gravity sensing unit being electronically connected to the processor and using gravity as a reference for detecting a movement of the vehicle to allow the processor to calculate a motion and orientation of the vehicle and determine whether the vehicle is colliding according to the motion and orientation of the vehicle;
a magnetic field positioning unit being electronically connected to the processor and detecting a position of the magnetic field positioning unit by measuring the Earth'"'"'s magnetic field to allow the processor to calculate a location of the vehicle from the position of the magnetic field positioning unit;
a camera captured images around the vehicle, being electronically connected to the processor and transmitting the images to the processor; and
a storage unit being electronically connected to the processor to store the motion, orientation and location of the vehicle and the images.

Abstract
A driving recorder is installed on a vehicle and has a processor, a register, a gravity sensing unit, a magnetic field positioning unit, a camera and a storage unit. The gravity sensing unit is electronically connected to the processor and uses gravity as a reference for detecting a movement of the vehicle to allow the processor to calculate a motion and orientation of the vehicle and determine whether the vehicle is colliding. The magnetic field positioning unit is electronically connected to the processor and detects a position of the magnetic field positioning unit by measuring the Earth'"'"'s magnetic field so the processor calculate a location of the vehicle. Therefore, the driving recorder accurately detects motion, orientation and location of the vehicle even when the vehicle is being driven in a tunnel.
