The methods and devices may include displaying the requested video.
Claims19
A computer device, comprising:
- a memory to store data and instructions;
- a processor in communication with the memory;
- and
- a video manager in communication with the memory and the processor, wherein the video manager is operable to:
- perform a search, regarding a first vehicle having a first driver and associated with an event, for one or more second vehicles that have a camera system located nearby the event during a time range surrounding the event, wherein the search is automatically performed in response to an on-board computer device of the first vehicle detecting an occurrence of the event and uploading time and location of the event from the first vehicle;
- receive, via a user interface of the computer device, a selection of at least one second vehicle from a search result list including the one or more second vehicles, wherein the search result list is generated from the performed search based on the time and the location of the event and the event being a critical event including one or more of hard braking, use of anti-lock braking system (ABS), roll stability state, a lane departure warning, and a following time violation;
- retrieve, from a video data repository associated with the at least one second vehicle of the one or more second vehicles, a requested video during the time range surrounding the event;
- and
- display the requested video on a display of the computer device,
- wherein the computer device is remote from the first vehicle and the one or more second vehicles.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions executable by a computer device, comprising:
- at least one instruction for causing the computer device to perform a search, regarding a first vehicle having a first driver and associated with an event, for one or more second vehicles that have a camera system located nearby an event during a time range surrounding the event, wherein the search is automatically performed in response to an on-board computer device of the first vehicle detecting an occurrence of the event and uploading time and location of the event from the first vehicle;
- at least one instruction for causing the computer device to receive, via a user interface of the computer device, a selection of at least one second vehicle from a search result list including the one or more second vehicles, wherein the search result list is generated from the performed search based on the time and the location of the event and the event being a critical event including one or more of hard braking, use of anti-lock braking system (ABS), roll stability state, a lane departure warning, and a following time violation;
- at least one instruction for causing the computer device to retrieve, from a video data repository associated with the at least one second vehicle of the one or more second vehicles, a requested video during the time range surrounding the event;
- and
- at least one instruction for causing the computer device to display the requested video on a display of the computer device,
- wherein the computer device is remote from the first vehicle and the one or more vehicles.
