Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、交差点などにおける交通音から交通事故を効率良く検出する交通事故音検出装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
交差点では交通事故が多く発生するので、従来から事故が発生した時の状況を記録する交通事故の状況を記録する装置が考えられてきている。
【0003】
図7に例えば特開平4−338900号公報に開示された従来の交通事故状況記録装置の構成を示すブロック図を示す。
【0004】
図7において1、4は交通信号機、1B、1Y、1R、4B、4Y、4Rは信号灯、2B、2Y、2Rは信号線、3は信号灯点滅制御装置、5は信号灯記号発生装置、6は時刻文字発生部、7は加算部、8は撮像装置、9はエンドレス記録装置、10は周囲音検出装置、11は衝突音検出回路、12は記録制御装置、13は磁気記録制御装置、13aは映像出力端子、13bは音声出力端子である。
【0005】
また図8に、図7における交通事故音検出部分の構成を示すブロック図を示す。
【0006】
図7において交通音を検出する部分は周囲音検出装置10および衝突音検出回路11である。すなわち図7において周囲音検出装置10で信号が検出され、衝突音検出回路11に送られる。衝突音検出回路11では検出された信号が車両の衝突音か否かを判別し、衝突音と判別した時には衝突音検出信号が記録制御装置12に送られる。
【0007】
図7において検出された交通音が事故(衝突)音であるか否かの判断はそのレベルをあらかじめ定められた閾値と比較し、閾値以上になった場合に事故と判断している。また誤動作対策としては周囲音検出装置10には指向性マイクロホンを使用すること、および信号の経路中に帯域除去フィルタを設けることが開示されている。
【0008】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
以上のように構成された従来のこの種の装置では、衝突音の判別法として固定された閾値とのレベル比較を行っている。この判別法はレベル比較法を用いているため、入力された信号から瞬時に検出信号を生成することが容易である。
【0009】
しかしながら、一般の交通音では例えばブレーキ音、警笛音、暴走音など、事故音以外でもレベルの大きな音が多く存在し、固定された閾値とのレベル比較を行う方法だけでは事故音に加えてその他多くの交通音(例えばサイレンの音、トラックの荷台音等)も事故音として同時に判別されてしまうという問題があった。一方、閾値を高め、検出される交通音をより選択的に検出すると今度は本来の事故音が検出できないという問題があった。
【0010】
また、判別法自体を複雑化すると判別に要する演算時間が増加し、判別に要する時間内で事故が発生するとその事故音が無視されてしまうというような問題もあった。
【0011】
この発明は上記のような問題を解消するためになされたもので、事故音判別信号を瞬時に送出する事故音検出回路と、より精度の高い判別回路から信号を送出する事故音検出回路とを分離し、状況や目的に応じて両者を効率良く使い分けることができる交通事故音検出装置を提供すること、および記録された検出信号を後処理することによって判別に十分な時間をかけることのできる交通事故音検出装置を提供することを目的とする。
【0012】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記の目的に鑑み、この発明は、交通音を検出可能な位置に配置された交通音検出手段と、検出された交通音から事故音を検出する判別法の違いにより、相対的に高い選択性と、前記相対的に高い選択性に比べて検出される事故音の多い、前記高い選択性に対して相対的に低い選択性からなる異なる選択性を有する複数の事故音検出手段と、を有し、前記交通音検出手段に対し、相対的に低い選択性を有する事故音検出手段と高い選択性を有する事故音検出手段が並列に接続されていることを特徴とする交通事故音検出装置にある。
また、交通音を検出可能な位置に配置された交通音検出手段と、検出された交通音から事故音を検出する判別法の違いにより、相対的に高い選択性と、前記相対的に高い選択性に比べて検出される事故音の多い、前記高い選択性に対して相対的に低い選択性からなる異なる選択性を有する複数の事故音検出手段と、を有し、前記交通音検出手段に対し、相対的に低い選択性を有する第1の事故音検出手段と高い選択性を有する第2の事故音検出手段が並列に接続され、この第2の事故音検出手段にこれより高い選択性を有する第3の事故音検出手段が直列に接続され、第2の事故音検出手段の検出結果に基づいて第3の事故音検出手段が事故音検出を行うことを特徴とする交通事故音検出装置にある。
【0022】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、この発明の各実施の形態を図面を参照しながら説明する。
実施の形態1.
図1はこの発明の実施の形態1による交通事故音検出装置の機能構成ブロック図である。図1おいて10−1は交通音検出手段、11−1は第1の事故音検出手段、11−2は事故音検出手段11−1と異なる設定パラメータを有する同一判別法を使用した第2の事故音検出手段、あるいは判別法の異なる第2の事故音検出手段、12−1、12−2は第1のおよび第2の記録再生手段、15−1、15−2は事故音検出手段11−1、11−2からの信号を外部に伝送するための信号伝送手段を示す。なお、図1において図7に対応する部分には対応する符号を付した。
【0023】
次に動作について説明する。図1において交通音検出手段10−1で信号が検出された後、その信号は2分岐され、一方は事故音検出手段11−1へ、他方は事故音検出手段11−2に送られる。事故音検出手段11−1は、実時間(リアルタイム)で事故音を検出する比較的単純な判別法を使用した事故音検出手段であり、事故音を検出し、その信号を記録再生手段12−1および外部への信号伝送手段15−1に伝送する。記録再生手段12−1は送られてきた事故音を記録し、必要に応じて記録された事故音を再生する。
【0024】
他方、事故音検出手段11−2は、事故音検出手段11−1とは異なる設定あるいは判別法を使用しているため、事故音検出手段11−1とは異なる事故音をリアルタイムで検出し、その信号を記録再生手段12−2および外部への信号伝送手段15−2に伝送する。記録再生手段12−2では送られてきた事故音が記録され、必要に応じて記録された内容が再生される。
【0025】
図1において記録再生手段12−1、12−2で記録される事故音には一般には異なる事故音が含まれる。記録される事故音の数は事故音検出手段の判別パラメータによって異なるが、選択性すなわち選択基準を高めれば記録される事故音の数は少なくなり、選択性を低めれば事故音の数は増加する。そこで、一方の事故音検出手段の選択性を低く、他方は高く設定すれば、記録再生手段12−1、12−2に記録される事故音の記録数は、一方は多く、一方は少なくなる。したがって、記録後に事故音を再生して評価することを考えると、まず記録数の少ない記録再生手段の記録情報を評価し、後で記録数の多い記録再生手段の記録情報を時間をかけて評価すれば、状況や目的に応じた評価が可能となる。
【0026】
なお、図1では事故音検出手段11−1で検出された信号を記録再生手段12−1で記録し、信号伝送手段15−1で外部に伝送を行っているが、記録再生手段12−1、信号伝送手段15−1は必ずしも両方使用する必要はなく、どちらか一方のみを選択して使用しても良いことは勿論である。同様に、記録再生手段12−2、信号伝送手段15−2についてもどちらか一方のみを選択しても良い。
【0027】
このように本実施の形態における交通事故音検出装置では、記録された事故音を状況や目的に応じて効率良く使い分けることができる。
【0028】
実施の形態2.
図2はこの発明の実施の形態2による交通事故音検出装置の機能構成ブロック図である。図2において図1のものと同一もしくは相当部分は同一符号で示し説明を省略する。
【0029】
次に動作について説明する。図2において交通音検出手段10−1で検出された信号は事故音検出手段11−1に送られる。事故音検出手段11−1は、リアルタイムで事故音を検出する比較的単純な判別法を使用した事故音検出手段である。次に検出された事故音は、記録再生手段12−1、事故音検出手段11−2、および信号伝送手段15−1に送られる。記録再生手段12−1は送られてきた事故音を記録し、必要に応じて記録された事故音を再生する。信号伝送手段15−1は送られてきた事故音を外部に伝送する。
【0030】
事故音検出手段11−2は事故音検出手段11−1と同様にリアルタイムで事故音を検出する比較的単純な判別法を使用した事故音検出手段であるが、事故音検出手段11−1とは異なる判別パラメータ、あるいは事故音の判別法を使用し選択性を高めてある。そのため、事故音検出手段11−1から送られた事故音をさらに選択的に検出し、その信号を記録再生手段12−2および信号伝送手段15−2に伝送する。記録再生手段12−2は送られてきた事故音を記録し、必要に応じて記録された事故音を再生する。また信号伝送手段15−2は送られてきた事故音を外部に伝送する。
【0031】
図2において記録再生手段12−1、12−2で記録される事故音には一般に異なる事故音が含まれる。事故音検出手段11−2の選択性は事故音検出手段11−1より高く設定してあるので、記録される事故音の数は記録再生手段12−2の方が一般的に少ない。したがって記録後に事故音を再生して評価することを考えると、まず記録数の少ない記録再生手段12−2の記録情報を評価し、後で記録数の多い記録再生手段12−1の記録情報を時間をかけて評価すれば、状況や目的に応じた評価が可能となる。
【0032】
なお、図2では事故音検出手段11−1で検出された信号を記録再生手段12−1で記録し、信号伝送手段15−1で外部に伝送を行っているが、記録再生手段12−1、信号伝送手段15−1は必ずしも両方使用する必要はなく、どちらか一方のみを選択して使用しても良いことは勿論である。同様に、記録再生手段12−2、信号伝送手段15−2についてもどちらか一方のみを選択しても良い。
【0033】
このように本実施の形態における交通事故音検出装置においても、記録された事故音を状況や目的に応じて効率良く使い分けることができる。
【0034】
実施の形態3.
図3はこの発明の実施の形態3による交通事故音検出装置の機能構成ブロック図である。図3において上記実施の形態と同一もしくは相当部分は同一符号で示し説明を省略する。図3おいて11−3は第3の事故音検出手段、12−3は第3の記録再生手段、15−3は第3の信号伝送手段である。
【0035】
次に動作について説明する。図3において交通音検出手段10−1で信号が検出された後、信号は2分岐され、一方は事故音検出手段11−1に、他方は事故音検出手段11−2に送られる。事故音検出手段11−1は、リアルタイムで事故音を検出する比較的単純な判別法を使用した事故音検出手段で、次に検出された事故音は記録再生手段12−1および信号伝送手段に15−1に送られる。記録再生手段12−1は送られてきた事故音を記録し、必要に応じて記録された事故音を再生する。信号伝送手段15−1は送られてきた事故音を外部に伝送する。
【0036】
事故音検出手段11−2は事故音検出手段11−1と同様、リアルタイムで事故音を検出する比較的単純な判別法を使用した事故音検出手段であるが、事故音検出手段11−1とは異なる判別パラメータ、あるいは判別法を使用し、選択性が高められている。そのため送られた事故音をさらに選択的に検出することができる。次にこの信号は記録再生手段12−2、信号伝送手段15−2、事故音検出手段11−3に伝送される。
【0037】
記録再生手段12−2は送られてきた事故音を記録し、必要に応じて記録された事故音を再生する。信号伝送手段15−2は送られてきた事故音を外部に伝送する。事故音検出手段11−3は事故音検出手段11−1、11−2と同様、リアルタイムで事故音を検出する比較的単純な判別法を使用した事故音検出手段であるが、事故音検出手段11−1、11−2とは異なる判別パラメータ、あるいは判別法を使用し選択性をより高めてある。そのため、事故音検出手段11−2から送られた事故音をさらに選択的に検出し、その信号を記録再生手段12−3、および信号伝送手段15−3に伝送する。記録再生手段12−3は送られてきた事故音を記録し、必要に応じて記録された事故音を再生する。信号伝送手段15−3は送られてきた事故音を外部に伝送する。
【0038】
図3において記録再生手段12−1、12−2、12−3に記録される事故音には一般に異なる事故音が含まれる。選択性は事故音検出手段11−1、11−2、11−3の順に高く設定してあるので、記録される事故音の数は記録再生手段12−1が一番多く、12−2、12−3の順に少なくなる。したがって記録後に事故音を再生して評価することを考えると、まず記録数の一番少ない記録再生手段12−3で検出された記録情報を評価し、次に記録再生手段12−2、12−1の順に記録情報を時間をかけて評価すれば、状況や目的に応じた事故音の評価が可能となる。
【0039】
なお、図3では事故音検出手段11−1で検出された信号を記録再生手段12−1で記録し、信号伝送手段15−1で外部に伝送を行っているが、記録再生手段12−1、信号伝送手段15−1は必ずしも両方使用する必要はなく、どちらか一方のみを選択して使用しても良いことは勿論である。同様に、記録再生手段12−2、信号伝送手段15−2についてもどちらか一方のみを選択しても良いし、記録再生手段12−3、信号伝送手段15−3についてもどちらか一方のみを選択しても良いことは勿論である。
【0040】
このように本実施の形態における交通事故音検出装置においても、記録された事故音を状況や目的に応じて効率良く使い分けることができる。
【0041】
実施の形態4.
図4はこの発明の実施の形態4による交通事故音検出装置の機能構成ブロック図である。図4において上記実施の形態と同一もしくは相当部分は同一符号で示し説明を省略する。
【0042】
次に動作について説明する。図4において交通音検出手段10−1で検出された信号は事故音検出手段11−1に送られる。事故音検出手段11−1は、リアルタイムで事故音を検出する比較的単純な判別法を使用した事故音検出手段である。次に検出された事故音は、記録再生手段12−1、信号伝送手段15−1、事故音検出手段11−2、および事故音検出手段11−3に送られる。
【0043】
記録再生手段12−1は送られてきた事故音を記録し、必要に応じて記録された事故音を再生する。信号伝送手段15−1は送られてきた事故音を外部に伝送する。事故音検出手段11−2は事故音検出手段11−1と同様にリアルタイムで事故音を検出する比較的単純な判別法を使用した事故音検出手段であるが、事故音検出手段11−1とは異なる判別パラメータ、あるいは事故音の判別法を使用し選択性を高めてある。そのため、事故音検出手段11−1から送られた事故音を選択的に検出し、その信号を記録再生手段12−2および信号伝送手段15−2に伝送する。
【0044】
事故音検出手段11−3は事故音検出手段11−1、11−2と同様にリアルタイムで事故音を検出する比較的単純な判別法を使用した事故音検出手段であるが、事故音検出手段11−1、11−2とは異なる判別パラメータ、あるいは事故音の判別法を使用し選択性をさらに高めてある。そのため、事故音検出手段11−1から送られた事故音をより選択的に検出し、その信号を記録再生手段12−3および信号伝送手段15−3に伝送する。
【0045】
記録再生手段12−2は送られてきた事故音を記録し、必要に応じて記録された事故音を再生する。信号伝送手段15−2は送られてきた事故音を外部に伝送する。同様に、記録再生手段12−3は送られてきた事故音を記録し、必要に応じて記録された事故音を再生する。信号伝送手段15−3は送られてきた事故音を外部に伝送する。
【0046】
図4において記録再生手段12−1、12−2、12−3に記録される事故音には一般に異なる事故音が含まれる。選択性は事故音検出手段11−1、11−2、11−3の順に高く設定してあるので、記録される事故音の数は記録再生手段12−1が一番多く、12−2、12−3の順に少なくなる。したがって記録後に事故音を再生して評価することを考えると、まず記録数の一番少ない記録再生手段12−3で検出された記録情報を評価し、次に記録再生手段12−2、12−1の順に記録情報を時間をかけて評価すれば、状況や目的に応じた事故音の評価が可能となる。
【0047】
なお、図4では事故音検出手段11−1で検出された信号を記録再生手段12−1で記録し、信号伝送手段15−1で外部に伝送を行っているが、記録再生手段12−1、信号伝送手段15−1は必ずしも両方使用する必要はなく、どちらか一方のみを選択して使用しても良いことは勿論である。同様に、記録再生手段12−2、信号伝送手段15−2についてもどちらか一方のみを選択しても良いし、記録再生手段12−3、信号伝送手段15−3についてもどちらか一方のみを選択しても良いことは勿論である。
【0048】
このように本実施の形態における交通事故音検出装置においても、記録された事故音を状況や目的に応じて効率良く使い分けることができる。
【0049】
実施の形態5.
図5はこの発明の実施の形態5による交通事故音検出装置の機能構成ブロック図である。図5において上記実施の形態と同一もしくは相当部分は同一符号で示し説明を省略する。図5において、14は記録再生手段12−1を制御するための再生制御手段である。
【0050】
次に動作について説明する。図5において交通音検出手段10−1で信号が検出され、その信号は事故音検出手段11−1に送られる。事故音検出手段11−1は、リアルタイムで事故音を検出する比較的単純な判別法を使用した事故音検出手段である。さらに事故音検出手段11−1で検出された事故音は、記録再生手段12−1および信号伝送手段15−1に送られる。記録再生手段12−1は送られてきた事故音を記録し、必要に応じて記録された事故音を再生する。信号伝送手段15−1は送られてきた事故音を外部に伝送する。
【0051】
記録再生手段12−1に記録されている事故音は、記録完了後にその再生機能を使用して個々の事故音が再生され、第2の事故音検出手段11−2に送られる。事故音検出手段11−2は一般に複雑な判別法を用い、十分な時間をかけて精度良く事故音を検出するための検出手段で、事故音検出が完了すると完了信号を再生制御手段14に伝送する。再生制御手段14では完了信号を受け取ると再生制御手段に作用して記録再生手段12−1に記録されている次の事故音を事故音検出手段11−2に伝送させる。
【0052】
この結果、精度良く検出された信号が第2の記録再生手段12−2および信号伝送手段15−2に送られる。記録再生手段12−2は送られてきた事故音を記録し、必要に応じて記録された事故音を再生する。信号伝送手段15−2は送られてきた事故音を外部に伝送する。
【0053】
図5において記録再生手段12−1、12−2に記録される事故音には一般に異なる事故音が含まれる。事故音検出手段11−1に記録される事故音の数は多数となるが、事故音検出手段11−2では判別精度が高められており、記録されている事故音の数は少なくなる。したがって記録後に事故音を再生して評価することを考えると、まず記録数の少ない記録再生手段12−2で検出された記録情報を評価し、次に記録再生手段12−1の記録情報を時間をかけて評価すれば、状況や目的に応じた事故音の評価が可能となる。
【0054】
なお、図5では事故音検出手段11−1で検出された信号を記録再生手段12−1で記録し、信号伝送手段15−1で外部に伝送を行っているが、記録再生手段12−1、信号伝送手段15−1は必ずしも両方使用する必要はなく、どちらか一方のみを選択して使用しても良いことは勿論である。同様に、記録再生手段12−2、信号伝送手段15−2についてもどちらか一方のみを選択しても良い。
【0055】
このように本実施の形態における交通事故音検出装置においても、記録された事故音を状況や目的に応じて効率良く使い分けることができ、さらに記録された検出信号を個々に再生し、十分な時間をかけて事故音の判定を行うことができる。
【0056】
実施の形態6.
図6はこの発明の実施の形態3による交通事故音検出装置の機能構成ブロック図である。図6において上記実施の形態と同一もしくは相当部分は同一符号で示し説明を省略する。図6おいて11−0は事故音検出手段、12−0は記録再生手段、15−0は信号伝送手段、20は再生手段である。
【0057】
次に動作について説明する。記録された事故音は再生手段20により個々の事故音が再生され、事故音検出手段11−0に送られる。事故音検出手段11−0は一般に複雑な判別法を用い、十分な時間をかけて精度良く事故音を検出するための検出手段で、事故音検出が完了すると完了信号を再生制御手段14に伝送する。再生制御手段14では完了信号を受け取ると再生手段20に作用し、記録されている次の事故音を事故音検出手段11−0に伝送させる。この結果、精度良く検出された信号が記録再生手段12−0および信号伝送手段15−0に送られる。記録再生手段12−0は送られてきた事故音を記録し、必要に応じて記録された事故音を再生する。信号伝送手段15−0は送られてきた事故音を外部に伝送する。
【0058】
図6において記録再生手段12−0には事故音のみが精度良く検出されているため、その記録数は比較的少数である。したがって記録後に事故音を再生して評価することを考えると効率的に事故音を評価することが可能となる。
【0059】
なお、図6では事故音検出手段11−0で検出された信号を記録再生手段12−0で記録し、信号伝送手段15−0で外部に伝送を行っているが、記録再生手段12−0、信号伝送手段15−0は必ずしも両方使用する必要はなく、どちらか一方のみを選択して使用しても良いことは勿論である。
【0060】
このように本実施の形態における交通事故音検出装置においては、記録された検出信号を後処理することによって判別に十分な時間をかけることができる。
【0061】
【発明の効果】
以上のようにこの発明によれば、交通音を検出可能な位置に配置された交通音検出手段と、検出された交通音から事故音を検出する判別法の違いにより、相対的に高い選択性と、前記相対的に高い選択性に比べて検出される事故音の多い、前記高い選択性に対して相対的に低い選択性からなる異なる選択性を有する複数の事故音検出手段と、を有し、前記交通音検出手段に対し、相対的に低い選択性を有する事故音検出手段と高い選択性を有する事故音検出手段が並列に接続されていることを特徴とする交通事故音検出装置、また、交通音を検出可能な位置に配置された交通音検出手段と、検出された交通音から事故音を検出する判別法の違いにより、相対的に高い選択性と、前記相対的に高い選択性に比べて検出される事故音の多い、前記高い選択性に対して相対的に低い選択性からなる異なる選択性を有する複数の事故音検出手段と、を有し、前記交通音検出手段に対し、相対的に低い選択性を有する第1の事故音検出手段と高い選択性を有する第2の事故音検出手段が並列に接続され、この第2の事故音検出手段にこれより高い選択性を有する第3の事故音検出手段が直列に接続され、第2の事故音検出手段の検出結果に基づいて第3の事故音検出手段が事故音検出を行うことを特徴とする交通事故音検出装置としたので、検出された事故音を状況や目的に応じて効率よく使い分けることができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a traffic accident sound detection apparatus for efficiently detecting a traffic accident from traffic sound at an intersection or the like.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Since many traffic accidents occur at intersections, a device for recording the situation of a traffic accident that records the situation at the time of the accident has been considered.
[0003]
FIG. 7 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a conventional traffic accident situation recording apparatus disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-338900.
[0004]
7, 1 and 4 are traffic lights, 1B, 1Y, 1R, 4B, 4Y, 4R are signal lights, 2B, 2Y, 2R are signal lines, 3 is a signal light blinking control device, 5 is a signal light symbol generator, and 6 is time. Character generation unit, 7 addition unit, 8 imaging device, 9 endless recording device, 10 ambient sound detection device, 11 collision sound detection circuit, 12 recording control device, 13 magnetic recording control device, 13a video An output terminal 13b is an audio output terminal.
[0005]
FIG. 8 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the traffic accident sound detection portion in FIG.
[0006]
In FIG. 7, traffic sound is detected by the ambient sound detection device 10 and the collision sound detection circuit 11. That is, in FIG. 7, the ambient sound detection device 10 detects the signal and sends it to the collision sound detection circuit 11. The collision sound detection circuit 11 determines whether or not the detected signal is a vehicle collision sound. When it is determined as a collision sound, a collision sound detection signal is sent to the recording control device 12.
[0007]
The determination as to whether or not the traffic sound detected in FIG. 7 is an accident (collision) sound is made by comparing the level with a predetermined threshold value and determining that it is an accident if the level exceeds the threshold value. As countermeasures against malfunctions, it is disclosed that the ambient sound detection device 10 uses a directional microphone and that a band elimination filter is provided in the signal path.
[0008]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In this type of conventional apparatus configured as described above, a level comparison with a fixed threshold value is performed as a collision sound discrimination method. Since this discrimination method uses a level comparison method, it is easy to instantaneously generate a detection signal from the input signal.
[0009]
However, in general traffic sounds, for example, there are many loud sounds other than accident sounds such as brake sounds, whistle sounds, and runaway sounds. There has been a problem that many traffic sounds (for example, siren sounds, truck bed sounds, etc.) are simultaneously identified as accident sounds. On the other hand, if the threshold is increased and the detected traffic sound is detected more selectively, there is a problem that the original accident sound cannot be detected.
[0010]
In addition, when the discrimination method itself is complicated, there is a problem that the calculation time required for discrimination increases, and if an accident occurs within the time required for discrimination, the accident sound is ignored.
[0011]
The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems. An accident sound detection circuit that instantaneously transmits an accident sound determination signal and an accident sound detection circuit that transmits a signal from a more accurate determination circuit are provided. Providing a traffic accident sound detection device that can be separated and used efficiently according to the situation and purpose, and traffic that allows sufficient time for discrimination by post-processing the recorded detection signal An object is to provide an accident sound detection device.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
Embodiment 1 FIG.
1 is a functional block diagram of a traffic accident sound detection apparatus according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. In FIG. 1, 10-1 is a traffic sound detecting means, 11-1 is a first accident sound detecting means, 11-2 is a second using the same discrimination method having different setting parameters from the accident sound detecting means 11-1. Accident sound detecting means, or second accident sound detecting means having a different discrimination method, 12-1 and 12-2 are first and second recording / reproducing means, and 15-1 and 15-2 are accident sound detecting means. Signal transmission means for transmitting signals from 11-1 and 11-2 to the outside is shown. In FIG. 1, the parts corresponding to those in FIG.
[0023]
Next, the operation will be described. In FIG. 1, after the signal is detected by the traffic sound detecting means 10-1, the signal is branched into two, one being sent to the accident sound detecting means 11-1 and the other being sent to the accident sound detecting means 11-2. The accident sound detection means 11-1 is an accident sound detection means using a relatively simple discrimination method for detecting an accident sound in real time (real time). The accident sound detection means 11-1 detects the accident sound and records the signal as a recording / reproducing means 12- 1 and the external signal transmission means 15-1. The recording / reproducing means 12-1 records the transmitted accident sound, and reproduces the recorded accident sound as necessary.
[0024]
On the other hand, since the accident sound detection means 11-2 uses a setting or discrimination method different from that of the accident sound detection means 11-1, it detects an accident sound different from the accident sound detection means 11-1 in real time, The signal is transmitted to the recording / reproducing means 12-2 and the signal transmitting means 15-2 to the outside. In the recording / reproducing means 12-2, the transmitted accident sound is recorded, and the recorded contents are reproduced as necessary.
[0025]
In FIG. 1, the accident sounds recorded by the recording / reproducing means 12-1 and 12-2 generally include different accident sounds. The number of accident sounds that are recorded varies depending on the discrimination parameter of the accident sound detection means, but the number of accident sounds that are recorded decreases if the selectivity, ie, the selection criteria, is increased, and the number of accident sounds increases if the selectivity is decreased. To do. Therefore, if the selectivity of one accident sound detecting means is set low and the other is set high, the number of accident sounds recorded in the recording / reproducing means 12-1 and 12-2 is one, and one is small. . Therefore, considering the evaluation by reproducing the accident sound after recording, first evaluate the recording information of the recording / reproducing means with a small number of recordings, and then evaluate the recording information of the recording / reproducing means with a large number of recordings over time. Then, evaluation according to the situation and purpose becomes possible.
[0026]
In FIG. 1, the signal detected by the accident sound detecting means 11-1 is recorded by the recording / reproducing means 12-1 and transmitted to the outside by the signal transmitting means 15-1, but the recording / reproducing means 12-1 Of course, it is not always necessary to use both of the signal transmission means 15-1 and only one of them may be selected and used. Similarly, only one of the recording / reproducing unit 12-2 and the signal transmission unit 15-2 may be selected.
[0027]
As described above, in the traffic accident sound detection apparatus according to the present embodiment, the recorded accident sound can be efficiently used according to the situation and purpose.
[0028]

The accident sound detection means 11-1 is an accident sound detection means using a relatively simple discrimination method for detecting an accident sound in real time. Next, the detected accident sound is sent to the recording / reproducing means 12-1, the accident sound detecting means 11-2, and the signal transmission means 15-1. The recording / reproducing means 12-1 records the transmitted accident sound, and reproduces the recorded accident sound as necessary. The signal transmission means 15-1 transmits the accident sound sent to the outside.
[0030]
The accident sound detection means 11-2 is an accident sound detection means using a relatively simple discrimination method for detecting an accident sound in real time in the same manner as the accident sound detection means 11-1, but the accident sound detection means 11-1 Uses different discrimination parameters or accident sound discrimination methods to enhance the selectivity. Therefore, the accident sound sent from the accident sound detection means 11-1 is further selectively detected, and the signal is transmitted to the recording / reproducing means 12-2 and the signal transmission means 15-2. The recording / reproducing means 12-2 records the transmitted accident sound and reproduces the recorded accident sound as necessary. The signal transmission means 15-2 transmits the accident sound sent to the outside.
[0031]
In FIG. 2, the accident sounds recorded by the recording / reproducing means 12-1 and 12-2 generally include different accident sounds. Since the selectivity of the accident sound detecting means 11-2 is set higher than that of the accident sound detecting means 11-1, the number of recorded accident sounds is generally smaller in the recording / reproducing means 12-2. Therefore, considering that the accident sound is reproduced and evaluated after recording, the recording information of the recording / reproducing means 12-2 having a small number of recordings is evaluated first, and the recording information of the recording / reproducing means 12-1 having a large number of recordings is later evaluated. If evaluation is made over time, evaluation according to the situation and purpose becomes possible.
[0032]
In FIG. 2, the signal detected by the accident sound detecting means 11-1 is recorded by the recording / reproducing means 12-1, and transmitted to the outside by the signal transmitting means 15-1, but the recording / reproducing means 12-1 Of course, it is not always necessary to use both of the signal transmission means 15-1 and only one of them may be selected and used.

The discrimination parameters or discrimination methods different from those of 11-1 and 11-2 are used to further enhance the selectivity. Therefore, the accident sound sent from the accident sound detection means 11-2 is further selectively detected, and the signal is transmitted to the recording / reproducing means 12-3 and the signal transmission means 15-3. The recording / reproducing means 12-3 records the transmitted accident sound, and reproduces the recorded accident sound as necessary. The signal transmission means 15-3 transmits the accident sound sent to the outside.

[0051]
The accident sound recorded in the recording / reproducing means 12-1 is reproduced using the reproduction function after the recording is completed, and sent to the second accident sound detecting means 11-2. The accident sound detection means 11-2 is a detection means for detecting an accident sound with sufficient time by using a complicated discrimination method in general. When the accident sound detection is completed, a completion signal is transmitted to the reproduction control means 14. To do. Upon receipt of the completion signal, the reproduction control means 14 acts on the reproduction control means to transmit the next accident sound recorded in the recording / reproduction means 12-1 to the accident sound detection means 11-2.
[0052]
As a result, the signal detected with high accuracy is sent to the second recording / reproducing means 12-2 and the signal transmitting means 15-2 .

In FIG. 5, the accident sounds recorded in the recording / reproducing means 12-1 and 12-2 generally include different accident sounds. Although the number of accident sounds recorded in the accident sound detection means 11-1 is large, the accident sound detection means 11-2 has improved discrimination accuracy, and the number of recorded accident sounds is reduced. Therefore, considering that the accident sound is reproduced and evaluated after recording, firstly, the recording information detected by the recording / reproducing means 12-2 having a small number of recordings is evaluated, and then the recording information of the recording / reproducing means 12-1 is timed. If it evaluates over time, it becomes possible to evaluate the accident sound according to the situation and purpose.
[0054]

As a result, the signal detected with high accuracy is sent to the recording / reproducing means 12-0 and the signal transmitting means 15-0. The recording / reproducing means 12-0 records the transmitted accident sound and reproduces the recorded accident sound as necessary. The signal transmission means 15-0 transmits the accident sound sent to the outside.
