Abstract (en)

The present invention belongs to the class of electronic devices for registration of vehicle information, by closed circuit, in a memory unit protected from destructive factors such as mechanical and thermo impacts, in the case of accident or catastrophe of the vehicle. The device is aimed to be a technical mean of reconstruction of the crash dynamics, in the case of accidents or catastrophes, similar to the "black box" used in aviation, and provides the following functions: capturing, processing and registration, in internal memory, of the information coming from sensors and from equipment of the vehicle; registration, in internal memory, of information coming from incorporated accelerometer (overcharges and impacts on three spatial axes); protection of the internal memory from mechanical and thermo impacts and conservation of the deposited information, in the case of accident or catastrophe of the vehicle; reading of the information using a notebook and unequivocal reconstruction with graphic representation by mean of a PC simulator which permits the visualization of all the movements of the vehicle before and during the accident; technical state diagnostics of the vehicle at the moment of the accident or catastrophe; registration of geographic position of the vehicle and of astronomic time of the accident. <IMAGE>
