  • Patent number: 12380526
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of selecting an accident image by using speed profile analysis, which can sufficiently secure an available capacity of a storage medium, can reduce the amount of transmission data and a fee therefor, and can prevent a loss of unnecessary management expenses, by selecting an actual accident image by using speed profile analysis before and after the occurrence of an impact event and deleting, from the storage medium, an image having a grade determined to have a low accident possibility or changing a state of the image into an overwriteable state or taking measures for preventing the transmission of the image to a cloud server.

  • Publication number: 20240355139
    Abstract: A driver anonymity-ensured shared vehicle-driving information management system includes a main camera, a sensor, an auxiliary camera, a memory unit, and a processor. The processor includes a driving record generation section configured to generate a driving record of the vehicle on the basis of an image taken by the main camera and sensing data detected by the sensor, a facial feature vector extraction section configured to extract a driver facial feature vector by irreversibly encoding the driver image taken by the auxiliary camera so that the driver image is not able to be restored to the original driver image, and an anonymous driver driving information storage section configured to match the driver facial feature vector with the driving record and stores the matched data in the memory unit.

  • Patent number: 12118799
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of selecting an accident image using the results of the recognition of an obstacle on a road, which can distinguish between an actual accident image and a fake accident image by previously recognizing an obstacle on a road while a vehicle travels and determining an impact event to have a low accident possibility, the impact event occurring in a section in which the vehicle goes over the obstacle, or suppressing the impact event, and can secure a space of a storage medium by deleting the fake accident image or prevent a data usage fee and unnecessary management expenses by blocking the transmission of the fake accident image to a remote cloud server.

  • Patent number: 10220673
    Abstract: Provided is a cold-storage heat exchanger. The cold-storage heat exchanger includes a pair of header tanks, and tubes which are arranged in three rows with respect to the direction of the flow of air and connected at opposite sides thereof to the header tanks. A cold-storage medium is stored in the tubes that are disposed in a middle row, and refrigerant circulates through the tubes that are disposed in front and rear rows. Therefore, the cold-storage medium can effectively store cold-energy transferred from the refrigerant. When the engine of a vehicle is stopping, the cold-storage heat exchanger can discharge the cold-energy that has been stored into the passenger compartment of the vehicle, thus preventing the temperature in the passenger compartment from rapidly increasing, thereby creating pleasant air-conditioned conditions for a user, and minimizing the energy and time required to re-cool the passenger compartment.
