Publication number: 20130135472Abstract: An intelligent driving recording and inspection system is introduced for recording a car's driving process and for a user to review the driving process in an intelligent manner. The system includes an image-capture unit for capturing image signals in the driving process; a sensing unit for generating event signals corresponding to all events encountered in the driving process, such as lane departure, close distance from a preceding car, changes in gravity sensing, and abnormalities shown in inside-car driving data; a processing unit for linking the event signals with and marking the same on corresponding image signals; a memory unit for storing the image signals and the event signals; and a inspection unit for a user to review the stored image signals marked with the event signals. Therefore, any event occurred in the driving process can be easily analyzed by reviewing the image signals having corresponding event signal marked thereon.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 19, 2012Publication date: May 30, 2013Applicant: NATIONAL CHIAO TUNG UNIVERSITYInventors: Bing-Fei Wu, Chao-Jung Chen, Ying-Han Chen, Chung-Hsuan Yeh

Publication number: 20130135092Abstract: A driving behavior analysis and warning system is adapted to detect the driving behavior of a driver driving an automobile and to provide a warning signal corresponding to the driving behavior. The analysis and warning system receives drive information captured by an external and/or an internal drive system via an information collection unit, and analysis module integrated with a algorithm is then used to analyze the drive information to produce drive safety signals, enabling the driver to determine whether driver driving behavior is normal or not through an output unit, so as to prevent injury caused by dangerous driving. Moreover, this invention also provides a method for analyzing and warning driving behavior.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 19, 2012Publication date: May 30, 2013Applicant: NATIONAL CHIAO TUNG UNIVERSITYInventors: Bing-Fei Wu, Chao-Jung Chen, Ying-Han Chen, Chung-Hsuan Yeh

Publication number: 20110307144Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for transmitting and receiving vehicle information, in which a wireless transmitting and receiving unit and a vehicle computer recording a first information is disposed in the vehicle, and a processing computer is disposed in a vehicle station. When the vehicle enters the vehicle station, the vehicle wirelessly transmits the first information to the processing computer according to a request signal. After that, the processing computer wirelessly transmits a second information to the vehicle computer at a specific time point. By means of the method and system of the present invention, it is capable of exchanging information between the vehicle and vehicle station in a wireless transmitting and receiving way so as to save the waiting time for maintenance and management.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 16, 2010Publication date: December 15, 2011Applicant: National Chiao Tung UniversityInventors: BING-FEI WU, YEN-FENG LI, CHIH-CHUNG KAO, YING-HAN CHEN, CHAO-JUNG CHEN

Publication number: 20100324814Abstract: The present invention relates a GPS tracking system, comprising a tracking and positioning device, a server, a positioning display unit, and a database. Since the tracking and positioning device only sends an Internet protocol (IP) data and a verification data once when it is connected to the Internet, and sends a positioning data only when a position of the tracking and positioning device is to be shown on the positioning display unit, the bandwidth can be saved.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 16, 2010Publication date: December 23, 2010Applicant: National Chiao Tung UniversityInventors: BING-FEI WU, Ying-Han Chen, Chao-Jung Chen, Chih-Chung Kao, Po-Chia Huang
