    2.1.2 G sensor The accelerometric sensor continuously generates three analog signals relating to the acceleration values detected on the X, Y and Z axis. X axis: It is aligned with the vehicle travel direction Y: It is perpendicular to the axis X and is associated lateral acceleration Z axis: is orthogonal to the axes X, Y and is associated to the vertical axis.

    The data related to the event are, in this case, recorded using the backup battery resident on board OCTOBOX 4V VEDR. In this case the registration is maintained until the conditions exist to ensure proper storage of information on Micro SD card. In this condition, the frame rate may be slightly lower than the frame rate in conditions of normal supply.
