Abstract

A vehicle accident recording system (10) comprising a front proximity sensor (12) a rear proximity sensor (14), a microcontroller (22), front and side facing cmeras (26,28,30) and a rear facing camera (32), and a picture processing and retrieving subsystem (46). The proximity sensors (12,14) sense when a preset vehicle clo sing rate has been exceeded at which time a probable vehicle impact signal (11) is applied to the microcontroller (22). The microcontroller (22) processes the signal (11) and produces a camera shutter signal( 13) that acrivates the cameras (26,28,30 and 32). The cameras produce a camera picture signal (15) that is applied to the subsystem (46) wherefrom a quadrature picture is produced that is available at the accident site. The system (10) can also include an impact sensor (16) that allows the system (10) to produce a picture at the instant of the impact, and a pressure activated sensor (18) that is activated and produces a braking signal (19) when a sudden, hard pressure is applied to the brake pedal.
