System and method for selective review of event data
DCFirst Claim
1. A system for selective reviewing of driving event data, comprising:
- an event detector coupled with a vehicle, configured to capture and store driving events, each said captured and stored driving event having a pre-event time, a trigger time and a post-event time;
an evaluation server configured to receive and store a plurality of said driving events from the event detector and provide said driving events for analysis; and
an analysis station comprising a data loading module, a data indexing module, a data control module, and a data playing module, wherein the data loading module is configured to receive the captured driving event from the evaluation server and load the captured driving event for review, the data indexing module is configured to cue up the captured driving event at a selected cue time that is prior to the trigger time, and to adjust the cue time within the range between the pre-event time and the trigger time, and the data playing module is configured to play the cued up driving event from the cue time to the post-event time.

Abstract
Systems and methods for computer assisted cueing and selective reviewing of driving data in order to save time in the data review process are provided. The method allows identifying essential portions of the data, selecting the essential portions, reviewing the selected data and retrieving additional data leading to the event if necessary. At least one event capture device continuously captures data into a buffer. The data are sent to an event detector communicatively coupled to the event capture device only when the event detector requests them. After receiving the data, the event detector selects and indexes a pre-event portion, during-event portion and post-event portion, combines the portions of captured data into a single driving event record and sends the driving event record to the evaluation server. From the server, the driving event record is sent to the analysis station for review and analysis.

18. A method for selective reviewing of driving event data, comprising:
- capturing and indexing a driving event at an event detector, wherein the event detector is coupled with a vehicle, and wherein the captured driving event has a trigger time;
sending the captured driving event from the event detector to an evaluation sewer;
receiving and storing a plurality of said driving events at the evaluation server;
sending the captured driving event from the evaluation server to an analysis station;
receiving the captured driving event at the analysis station and loading the captured driving event for review;
cueing up the captured driving event at a cue time set prior to the trigger time; and
playing the cued up driving event from the cue time, further comprising adjusting the cue time within the range between a pre-event time and the trigger time, and playing the captured event from a new cue time. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33)
