Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé pour filmer la survenance et la suite des accidents de la circulation dans lesquels sont impliqués des véhicules de transport et surtout des voitures, et ce à des fins d'une investigation ultérieure complète, objective et détaillée sur les causes de l'accident. L'objet de l'invention comprend des caméras vidéo numériques à angle large avec une mémoire RAM et un dispositif de stockage d'informations vidéo volatiles, montés sur des véhicules de transport et des objets fixes sur la route tels que feux de la circulation, poteaux, barrières et dans les zones statistiquement réputées dangereuses en matière de trafic. Les caméras vidéo sont connectées à un émetteur-récepteur radio et peuvent être connectées à des sorties de détecteurs d'urgence. L'émetteur-récepteur radio peut être connecté aux sorties de détecteurs de situations d'urgence. En cas d'activation des détecteurs d'urgence, les signaux provenant de ces détecteurs sont transmis à l'émetteur-récepteur radio puis aux émetteurs-récepteurs installés sur d'autres véhicules de transport ou sur des émetteurs-récepteurs fixes sur la route si ces derniers se trouvent dans la zone de couverture radio. Simultanément, le signal d'urgence est commuté par le biais d'une caméra radio montée sur un véhicule de transport qui fonctionne en permanence pendant le mouvement ou les arrêts (le parcage temporaire) de ce véhicule, et ce à des fins de transfert des séquences vidéo correspondant aux moments immédiatement avant et après l'accident depuis la mémoire RAM vers le dispositif de stockage des informations vidéo volatiles. Le signal radio transmis de manière synchrone est commuté de la même manière que les caméras vidéo installées sur les véhicules de transport se trouvant à proximité ou les caméras vidéo fixes sur la route, à des fins de transfert des séquences vidéo correspondant aux moments immédiatement avant et après l'accident depuis la mémoire RAM vers le dispositif de stockage des informations vidéo volatiles. Ces séquences sont ensuite lues les unes après les autres à partir de tous les systèmes d'enregistrement des accidents de la route qui entrent dans la zone des signaux radio ; elles sont ensuite visualisées à l'écran.
