IEC 63005-1:2017

Event video data recorder for road vehicle accidents - Part 1: Basic requirements

IEC 63005-1:2017 describes basic requirements for event video data recorders (EVDRs) for road vehicle accidents, used for identifying and analysing causes of accidents based on video from a front-mounted camera and other information obtained before and after such events. In addition to video from a front-mounted camera and vehicle behaviour, these products can record side and/or rear video data for enhanced functionalities in determining causes of accidents and analysing collision events.

Enregistreurs de données vidéo pour l'identification et l'analyse des causes des accidents des véhicules routiers - Partie 1: Exigences de base

L'IEC 63005-1:2017 décrit les exigences de base applicables aux enregistreurs de données vidéo d'événement (EVDR) utilisés pour l'identification et l'analyse des causes des accidents des véhicules routiers à partir de vidéos enregistrées par une caméra frontale et d'autres informations obtenues avant et après de tels événements. En plus des vidéos enregistrées par la caméra frontale et du comportement du véhicule, ces produits peuvent enregistrer des données vidéo à partir de caméras latérales et/ou arrière qui permettent d'améliorer les fonctionnalités relatives à la détermination des causes des accidents et à l'analyse des événements qui impliquent une collision.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.

indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 63005-1 has been prepared by technical area 17: Multimedia
systems and equipment for cars, of IEC technical committee 100: Audio, video and multimedia
systems and equipment.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
