Can't they just use an accelerometer?
- gumby 9y agoThe key factors are 1> reducing BOM and 2> working in cases where you have whatever data are available (perhaps a phone or CCTV footage or whatever). As it happens most if not all dash cams have accelerometers.
- keenrodent 9y agoThey are not crash-testing automobiles, so an accelerometer won't help. They are looking at dashcam footage from a library of that footage.
- mikeash 9y agoIt looks like they are detecting crashes of other cars caught on camera, not crashes of the car with the camera.
