VEHICLE EVENT PLAYBACK APPARATUS AND METHODS
First Claim
1. ) A vehicle event data playback apparatus comprising one or more processors configured to synchronize vehicle operation information, wherein synchronizing the vehicle operation information comprises:
- receiving the vehicle operation information via output signals generated by sensors coupled with the vehicle, the sensors including a first sensor that generates a first output signal conveying information related to a first operating parameter, and a second sensor that generates a second output signal conveying information related to a second operating parameter;
detecting a first vehicle event based on the output signals, the first vehicle event having a start time and an end time;
associating information from two or more of the output signals generated during the first vehicle event to create a first event record; and
synchronizing the information from the two or more output signals generated during the first vehicle event based on analysis of the information conveyed by the output signals such that the information from the first output signal during the first vehicle event and the information from the second output signal during the first event is synchronized by identifying and correlating corresponding phenomena in the first output signal and the second output signal during the first vehicle event.

Abstract
Vehicle event data playback systems described herein may provide users means for reviewing events recorded by a vehicle event recorder. Circumstances relating to vehicle operation may be visually presented in these playback systems. Video playback from multiple recording devices may be synchronized with each other and/or with information related to the operation of the vehicle during the recorded events to affect a presentation of information related to operation of the vehicle. A user may be presented with many data types in graphical and/or intuitive arrangements.
