1. A vehicle video collision event recorder, comprising:
- a control module for accepting at least one decoded engine performance data and at least one processed video signal;
a video mixer for processing at least one video signal;
at least one video camera for providing the at least one video signal;
a decoder for decoding at least one engine performance data from an on-board diagnostic system;
a collision sensor coupled to the control module; and
a storage device for storing and output signal representative of the decoded engine performance data and the processed video signal.

9. A method of recording a vehicle collision event comprising the steps of:
-
receiving at least one video input; receiving at least one engine performance input; mixing the received at least one video input and received at least one engine performance input to form an output signal; recording the output signal; and halting the recording of the output signal in the event of a vehicle collision. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)

14. The vehicle video collision event recorder comprising:
-
a control module for accepting at least one decoded engine performance data, at least one processed video signal, and a date and time stamp and providing an output signal representative of the at least one decoded engine performance data, the at least one processed video signal and the date and time stamp; a video mixer for processing at least one video signal; at least one video camera for providing the at least one video signal; a decoder for decoding at least one engine performance data from an on-board diagnostic system; a date and time stamp device coupled to the control module; and a collision sensor coupled to the control module, the collision sensor operable to detect a vehicle collision and caused a controlled module to cease outputting the output signal after a predetermined time; and a storage device for storing the output signal. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
