Event information recording device and event information reference system
This event information recording device 10 includes: a detection unit 131 which detects the occurrence of an event related to a vehicle V; a first storage unit 11 which stores event information that is information on an event occurring in the vehicle V in correspondence to each of a plurality of event types indicating types of events, and stores index information including the number of event occurrences, which is the number of occurrences of events corresponding to each of the plurality of event types; and a storage control unit 132 which, when the detection unit 131 detects the occurrence of an event, adds 1 to the number of event occurrences included in the index information stored in the first storage unit 11 in correspondence to the type of the event.
1. An event information reference system comprising:
an event information recording device configured to record an event related to a vehicle, the event information recording device being mounted on the vehicle; and
a reference device configured to refer to the event,
wherein the event information recording device comprises:
a recording device-side memory; and
a recording device-side control device configured to:
detect an occurrence of the event related to the vehicle;
store event information in association with a corresponding one of a plurality of event types that indicates a type of the event in the recording device-side memory, the event information being information on the event, and to store index information including an event occurrence count, the event occurrence count being a count of occurrences of the event in association with a corresponding one of the plurality of event types; and
based on detecting the occurrence of the event, add one to the event occurrence count included in the index information stored in the recording device-side memory in association with the event type,
wherein the reference device comprises:
a reference device-side memory; and
a reference device-side control device configured to:
store an event occurrence count in association with a target event in the reference device-side memory, the target event being the event to be referred to by the reference device;
refer to the index information stored in the recording device-side memory and determine whether the event occurrence count of the target event included in the index information is consistent with the event occurrence count of the target event stored in the reference device-side memory; and
based on determining that the event occurrence counts of the target event are inconsistent, obtain the event information in association with the target event from the recording device-side memory.
2. The event information reference system according to claim 1 , wherein in the storing, the reference device-side control device is further configured to:
store the obtained event information in the reference device-side memory; and
add one to the event occurrence count of the target event stored in the reference device-side memory.
