Apparatus and method for recording an image for a vehicle using on board diagnostic information
First Claim
1. A mobile terminal for recording an image from a vehicle using On Board Diagnostic (OBD) information, the mobile terminal comprising:
- an interface unit configured to receive state information about the vehicle from an OBD terminal provided in the vehicle;
a sensor unit configured to sense movement of the vehicle;
an image input unit configured to capture images related to vehicle driving;
a memory configured to store the captured images and vehicle state information related to an occurrence of an event;
a controller configured to store the captured images through the image input unit in the memory, when a value received from the sensor unit that is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold or the vehicle state information related to an occurrence of an event is received from the OBD terminal, and to store the vehicle state information in the memory, when the vehicle state information is received; and
a display configured to display the captured images and the vehicle state information.

Abstract
An apparatus and method for recording an image from a vehicle using On Board Diagnostic (OBD) information are provided. A vehicle state information acquirer receives state information about a devices loaded on the vehicle and an OBD terminal provided in the vehicle. A sensor unit senses movement of the vehicle. An image input unit captures images related to vehicle driving. A controller senses a value that is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold received from the sensor unit or receives vehicle state information related to an occurrence of an event is received from the OBD terminal, starts capturing the images through the image input unit, and controls storing of the captured images with the vehicle state information. A memory that stores the captured images with the vehicle state information.
