Abstract:
A system for alerting a user of a vehicle in an unexpected event. The system comprises a detector for detecting the unexpected event and a recording system comprising at least one camera for continuously recording video information concerning the vehicle. The recording system comprises a circular buffer for storing the video information recorded by the at least one camera and a device for controlling the circular buffer such that when the unexpected event occurs, the recording system only records additional video information to fill approximately one half of the circular buffer so that the circular buffer at least contains video information of before and while the unexpected event to the vehicle is occurring. A communicating device configured for sending the circular buffer, containing the video information of before and while the unexpected event to the vehicle is occurring, to at least one of a server and a mobile device.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for alerting a user of a vehicle in an unexpected event, the system comprising:\n a detection unit for detecting an unexpected event occurring within or near the vehicle; a motion detector which facilitates temporary activation/deactivation of the system in order to conserve power; a recording system comprising at least one camera for installation in the vehicle and continuously recording video information concerning the vehicle; the recording system additionally comprising a circular buffer for storing the video information recorded by the at least one camera; a control device electrically connected to the recording system for controlling the circular buffer such that when the unexpected event, as detected by the at least one of G-sensors or accelerometers, occurs, the recording system only records additional video information to fill one half of the circular buffer so that the circular buffer at least contains video information of before the unexpected event to the vehicle and while the unexpected event to the vehicle is occurring; a key fob, coupled to the system, for indicating to the system a distance of the user from the vehicle, and the system adjusting a sensitivity of the at least one of the G-sensors or the accelerometers based on the distance of the user from the vehicle; and a communicating device electrically connected to the recording system and configured for sending the video information, stored in the circular buffer, of before the unexpected event to the vehicle and while the unexpected event to the vehicle is occurring, to at least one of a server and a mobile device; a means for detecting the presence of the user of the vehicle being sufficiently near the vehicle; and a means for changing a sensitivity of the detection unit based upon whether or not the user of the vehicle is sufficiently near the vehicle.
