Abstract

There is provided a method for providing driver's driving information of a user terminal device, including accessing a driving information providing server storing data generated in a driving recording device for a vehicle, receiving driving record data including event record data corresponding to a driving-related event of a driver from the driving information providing server, and displaying a driving-related event occurrence location on a map using the received driving record data. The driving-related event may include at least two or more of a lane departure event, a forward collision possibility event, a rear side collision possibility event, a sudden deceleration event, a sudden acceleration event, a sudden stop event, a sudden start event, and a speeding event.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A driving information providing server comprising:
a communication unit receiving event record data corresponding to driver's driving-related event generated by a driving recording device for a vehicle; a storage unit generating driving record data for a plurality of drivers based on the received event record data and storing the generated driving record data; and a controller controlling the communication unit to detect driving record data corresponding to a user terminal device when driving record data is requested by the user terminal device connected to the server, and to transmit the detected driving record data to the user terminal device, wherein the transmitted driving record data comprises information configured to cause the user terminal device to display at least one icon visually distinguished and associated with frequency of the driving-related event occurrence according to kind of event types on a driving information display region of the user terminal device, and wherein the transmitted driving record data comprises information configured to cause the user terminal device to display the driving information display region organized by date, and to display past data within the region responsive to user input directing movement in a specific direction.

2 . The driving information providing server of claim 1 , wherein the driving-related event includes at least two or more of a lane departure event, a forward collision possibility event, a rear side collision possibility event, a sudden deceleration event, a sudden acceleration event, a sudden stop event, a sudden start event, and a speeding event.

3 . The driving information providing server of claim 1 , wherein the driving record data includes the event record data and further includes at least one of driving time data, driving route data, and driving distance data.

4 . The driving information providing server of claim 3 , wherein the user terminal device displays a driving route of the driver and an event icon indicating the driving-related event occurrence location on the driving route on the map using the driving record data.

5 . The driving information providing server of claim 4 , wherein the user terminal device outputs a captured image and/or recorded sound related to the driving-related event using the driving record data.

6 . The driving information providing server of claim 1 , wherein the driving record data defines as a single driving record from driving start to driving end, and the storage unit classifies and stores a plurality of driving records whose driving start times and/or driving end times allocated to driving records are different, as different driving records.

7 . The driving information providing server of claim 1 , wherein the event record data includes location information corresponding to a location where the driving-related event occurs, time information corresponding to a time at which the driving-related event occurs, and event type information corresponding to a type of the driving-related event.

8 . A method for providing driver's driving information by a server, the method comprising:
receiving event record data corresponding to driver's driving-related event generated by a driving recording device for a vehicle; generating driving record data for a plurality of drivers based on the received event record data and storing the generated driving record data; detecting driving record data corresponding to a user terminal device when driving record data is requested by the user terminal device connected to the server; and transmitting the detected driving record data to the user terminal device, wherein the transmitted driving record data comprises information configured to cause the user terminal device to display at least one icon visually distinguished and associated with frequency of the driving-related event occurrence according to kind of event types on a driving information display region of the user terminal device, and wherein the transmitted driving record data comprises information configured to cause the user terminal device to display the driving information display region organized by date, and to display past data within the region responsive to user input directing movement in a specific direction.

9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the driving-related event includes at least two or more of a lane departure event, a forward collision possibility event, a rear side collision possibility event, a sudden deceleration event, a sudden acceleration event, a sudden stop event, a sudden start event, and a speeding event.

10 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the driving record data includes the event record data and further includes at least one of driving time data, driving route data, and driving distance data.

11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the user terminal device displays a driving route of the driver and an event icon indicating the driving-related event occurrence location on the driving route on the map using the driving record data.

12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the user terminal device outputs a captured image and/or recorded sound related to the driving-related event using the driving record data.

13 . The method of claim 8 , wherein, in the storing of the driving record data, the driving record data defines as a single driving record from driving start to driving end, and a plurality of driving records whose driving start times and/or driving end times allocated to driving records are different are classified as different driving records and stored.

14 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the event record data includes location information corresponding to a location where the driving-related event occurs, time information corresponding to a time at which the driving-related event occurs, and event type information corresponding to a type of the driving-related event.

15 . A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having a program code recorded thereon to execute the method for providing driver's driving information, the method comprising:
receiving event record data corresponding to driver's driving-related event generated by a driving recording device for a vehicle; generating driving record data for a plurality of drivers based on the received event record data and storing the generated driving record data; detecting driving record data corresponding to a user terminal device when driving record data is requested by the user terminal device connected to the server; and transmitting the detected driving record data to the user terminal device, wherein the driving record data is used to display the driver's driving-related event information in the user terminal device, wherein the transmitted driving record data comprises information configured to cause the user terminal device to display at least one icon visually distinguished and associated with frequency of the driving-related event occurrence according to kind of event types on a driving information display region of the user terminal device, and wherein the transmitted driving record data comprises information configured to cause the user terminal device to display the driving information display region organized by date, and to display past data within the region responsive to user input directing movement in a specific direction.

16 . The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium of claim 15 , wherein the driving-related event includes at least two or more of a lane departure event, a forward collision possibility event, a rear side col
