US Patent 10504302 360 degree vehicle camera accident monitoring system

A vehicle monitoring system with a camera is disclosed for creating video or still photo data at the time of a detected accident. The monitoring system monitors a vehicle parameter using a sensor contained within the vehicle. The system may use a processor contained within the vehicle to monitor the vehicle parameter. The system sets a parameter threshold. When the system detects, using the sensor, that the parameter has met the threshold it captures a video or still photo of an area surrounding the vehicle. The system then stores and/or transmits the video or still photo data to a remote server over a network.
