Program instructions to be recorded may be those specially designed and constructed for the present invention or may be available to those skilled in the art of computer software. For example, the recording medium may be an optical recording medium such as a magnetic medium such as a hard disk, a floppy disk and a magnetic tape, a compact disk read only memory (CD-ROM), a digital video disk (DVD) Includes a hardware device that is specially configured to store and execute program instructions such as a magneto-optical medium such as a floppy disk and a ROM, a random access memory (RAM), a flash memory, do. Examples of program instructions may include machine language code such as those generated by a compiler, as well as high-level language code that may be executed by a computer using an interpreter or the like. Such a hardware device may be configured to operate as one or more software modules to perform the operations of the present invention, and vice versa.

It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention disclosed in the present specification and drawings are only illustrative of specific examples for the purpose of understanding and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that other modifications based on the technical idea of the present invention are possible in addition to the embodiments disclosed herein.

The present invention stores and manages images taken by a user or other accident monitoring devices in the vicinity of an accident monitoring device in which an accident has occurred in the service device, Therefore, it is possible to provide more accurate accident handling by receiving the images stored by the accident user and the police or the insurance company staff in the service apparatus when the accident is handled.

In addition, the present invention can collect and manage additional images and traffic information from surrounding imaging devices and traffic lights, as well as images received from the peripheral incident monitoring device in the service device, thereby obtaining more information for incident handling , It is possible to precisely grasp the cause of the accident and precisely deal with the accident insurance treatment so that the disadvantage does not occur to the user.

The present invention is applied to the field of communication service, and is a useful invention for generating an effect of sharing images photographed by a user and another device by communicating with an accident monitoring device and a photographing device in the vicinity in the event of a vehicle accident or an emergency , Thereby contributing to the development of the service industry.
