Description

Traffic event automatic reporting device {Traffic event automatic reporting device}

The present invention relates to an automatic traffic event reporting device, and more particularly, by automatically determining a traffic event, such as a traffic law violation or a traffic accident, from a video captured by a video recording device installed in a vehicle, and automatically completing a prescribed report form to a designated web address It relates to an automatic reporting device with a function of automatically sending or uploading a report form to an IP address.

Patent No. 10-1725760 (Traffic Law Violation Reporting System and Method Using Vehicle Black Box) discloses a technology capable of reporting a traffic law violation video using an image captured in a black box mounted on a vehicle. Here, a button to designate violations of traffic laws is installed, and the button or touch screen is manually operated to capture an image, store it, and report it. However, in the case of real-time reporting, there is a high risk of accidents caused by the driver's manual operation, and the determination of whether a traffic event occurs or not is arbitrarily performed based on the driver's knowledge. it is absolutely necessary In addition, in the case of identification of personal information such as the vehicle owner's address, it is practically impossible for an individual to perform, and even if it is possible, it is a technology that is concerned about infringement or unauthorized leakage of personal information, so there is a problem with practicality.

Patent No. 10-1834309 (Traffic Law Violation Reporting System, Terminal, and Method) discloses a technology for a system and reporting method for transmitting an image captured from a photographing device installed in a vehicle to a control terminal. Here, the user manipulates a button or a touch screen according to the voice guidance for carrying out the reporting procedure, and edits and transmits a part of the image taken to the photographing device installed in the vehicle, thereby reporting traffic violations. However, this technology also requires manual operation according to the judgment of the driver or user, so there is a possibility that it may cause an accident by not concentrating on driving. In addition, there is no specific determination procedure for violations, and there is a problem in that it is not possible to check whether or not traffic violations are included in the transmitted image because the recorded image is transmitted from the driver's command input time to the previously set time.

Patent No. 10-1537267 (smart device black box system equipped with automatic upload function) is a technology for the implementation of applications (collectively referred to as mobile phone apps, etc.) for using a mobile phone or smart device as a black box. This is the implementation of an application with an automatic video upload function. In this case, the smart device that senses the impact in the event of a traffic accident operates according to the driver's response and only works when there is no response from the driver. Therefore, it can be regarded as a reporting device for the safety of the driver or passengers in the event of a traffic accident rather than an automatic reporting system for traffic events.

Patent No. 10-2015-0067527 (a black box that reports traffic law violations and a traffic law violation reporting system using a black box, Publication No. 10-2016-0134089) relates to a traffic law violation reporting system using a black box . Here, it is composed of an application that converts the voice of the complainant into text according to the voice guidance of the black box, and reports violations of traffic laws and incidents using a separate external device (server computer) for writing the report. In this technology, there is no manual operation of the driver for reporting, but a procedure for the driver to continuously focus on and respond to voice guidance is required to dictate the contents of the report. There is a point that is difficult to do, and the technology for specifying the video for reporting is not introduced.

Therefore, prior technologies depend on the driver's experience and memory to determine whether a traffic event has occurred, and contain factors that impede the safe driving of the reporter, such as responding to manual operation or voice guidance.
