Description

Black Box System for Vehicles {A BLACK BOX SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE}

The present invention relates to a black box for a vehicle, and more particularly, to enable video recording of driving information to be used as evidence when an accident occurs.

In general, when a vehicle is parked in a parking lot in a apartment complex or on a public parking lot on a road, the owner of the vehicle parked in front of or behind a car parked in a narrow space may cause bumps or sides to contact each other when the vehicle changes direction, so that the owner may not know. May damage the vehicle.

Since such an accident is difficult to cover the application later, a procedure is required to warn the driver of the accident at the time of the accident or to notify the outside of the accident and to immediately check the degree of damage to the vehicle.

On the other hand, in the case of a contact accident of a vehicle, the perpetrator's responsibility can be clearly masked in the case of invasion of the center line, but it is not easy to cover the sibibi in the case of contact accidents at roads or intersections without lanes, or when passing or turning or turning. As a result, problems that often lead to violent fertilization are occurring.

In general, screening accidents by skid marks or traffic laws has been a solution in the event of contact or collision.In the event of an accident, the vehicle is photographed on the spot or a spray gun such as white is used. It would be desirable to form marks around the perimeter.

However, even though it is required to have a spray gun or a camera on the vehicle in preparation for a contact or collision, it is difficult to find a vehicle that carries most of them. Therefore, when a contact accident occurs, most people raise their voices. They often cover or lead to violence.

This phenomenon is due to the fact that there is no evidence of the accident site, and it is required to collect evidence of the accident by using more clear means.

In addition, in the event of a contact accident, the location of the lane is added, which may provide decisive clues in identifying the victims, and in lanes and dirt roads where there are no lanes, it plays a more important role in determining the overcoming lane violation.

The present invention has been proposed to improve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and by transmitting the real-time image of the front and rear of the vehicle to the driver as well as the driving information of the vehicle, it can be used as objective evidence when an accident occurs by storing the image information along with the zoom. The purpose is to provide a black box device.

The present invention for achieving the above object, the camera for taking a picture of the surrounding vehicle; A camera controller for controlling the operation of the camera; An image information memory unit configured to store an image photographed by the camera; An image transmitter for transmitting an image captured by the camera to an LCD screen in a vehicle in real time; And a microcomputer for controlling the operation of each component.

Such a black box of the present invention, since the situation around the vehicle is recorded in real time by a plurality of cameras installed for image transmission it is possible to easily determine the cause of the accident in the event of a vehicle accident.

In particular, the image taken by the camera is recorded and at the same time the driver can check in real time through the LCD screen to help the vehicle safe driving.

In addition, the direction of the camera can be adjusted, so that the driver can check the desired direction, as well as recording is possible.

Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

First, looking at the overall configuration of the black box system according to an embodiment of the present invention through the block diagram of Figure 1, the camera body 1 (1) for front gaze is mounted on the body of the black box to be mounted on the inside of the vehicle, etc. Another camera 2 (2) for side or rear view is preferably to be connected via a USB port (not shown).

In addition, a microcomputer 10, which is a central control device, is mounted in the body of the black box, and the microcomputer 10 is configured to control operations such as exposure setting and focus according to the direction, angle, and external brightness of the cameras 1 and 2. The camera control unit 20, the image information memory unit 60 in which the images captured by the cameras 1 and 2 are stored, and the power supply unit 40 for power supply are connected.

In addition, the vehicle is equipped with a high-resolution 2.4-inch color LCD screen 51 so that the driver can check in real time the image being shot through the camera (1, 2), the image of the camera (1, 2) The image transmission unit 50 for real-time transmission to the LCD screen 51 is connected to the microcomputer 10.

In addition, the microcomputer 10 is preferably connected to the driving information memory unit 30, which is stored together with the traveling speed, the traveling distance of the vehicle.

On the other hand, the camera in the present invention, by using a high-performance camera, it is preferable to facilitate identification of the license plate of the vehicle even in the dark background.

The working effect of the operation of the present invention vehicle black box system constituting such a system configuration will be described.

First, when the driver starts the vehicle, power is applied through the system power supply unit 40 of the present invention after 2 to 3 seconds so that the black box system is operated.

When the black box system is automatically operated as described above, an image recorded through the cameras 1 and 2 is automatically recorded by the program operation even if the user does not press a separate recording button.

That is, each image captured by the camera 1 (1) and the camera 2 (2) is automatically recorded in the image information memory unit 60, and the LCD screen 51 through the image transmission unit 50 in real time. In the LCD screen 51, only one image is selectively displayed among two images transmitted by the driver's button selection, or two divided screens are implemented to simultaneously confirm two images. .

In particular, the year, month, day, hour, minute, second can be displayed on the screen during playback of the video recorded in the video information memory unit 60, the power supplied from the power supply unit 40 in the event of an automobile accident Even if it is turned off momentarily, the recorded screen can be automatically recorded in the image information memory unit 60.

Therefore, when a vehicle accident occurs, by checking only the image stored in the black box system of the present invention, the situation around the vehicle before and after the occurrence of the accident can be confirmed, so that it is possible to easily determine the affected vehicle and the damaged vehicle related to the accident. have.

In addition, although specific embodiments of the present invention have been described and illustrated above, it will be apparent that the black box system of the present invention may be variously modified and implemented by those skilled in the art.

For example, in the above embodiment, two cameras are mounted and described, but if necessary, three or more cameras may be simultaneously applied.

Therefore, it should be understood that such modified embodiments should not be understood individually from the technical spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modified embodiments should be included in the appended claims of the present invention.
