  • Camera system, event recording system and event recording method
    Patent number: 11968478
    Abstract: To reduce complication of a configuration of a vehicle while suppressing an increase in weight of the vehicle, a camera system mounted on a vehicle includes an imaging unit to capture multiple frame images of an outside of the vehicle per cycle and an image processor to obtain the multiple frame images from the imaging unit and separate the multiple frame images into a first given number of frame images as a recognition target and a second given number of frame images as a storage target to be stored in an image recorder. The image processor separately outputs the first and second given numbers of frame images to be recognized and stored, respectively.

  • Data recording device and control method of same
    Patent number: 7987317
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a data recording device that allows swift data access even under the state that data access is difficult, and a control method for the device. According to one embodiment, when receiving a data reading command from an external host in the state that a reading-difficult state is being detected, a Microprocessing Unit/Hard Disk Controller (MPU/HDC) of a magnetic disk device reads data related to the reading command from a magnetic disk for transmission to an external host and recording into a memory. Thereafter, when receiving another reading command from the external host for the same data, the data is read from the memory for transmission to the external host.
