Abstract:
Techniques and methods for storing data. For instance, a vehicle can receive sensor data generated by one or more sensors. The vehicle can then detect that an event is occurring and/or has occurred using the sensor data. Based on detecting the event, the vehicle can flag a first portion of the sensor data as corresponding to the event. The vehicle can then store the first portion of the sensor data according to a first storage rule and a second portion of the sensor data according to a second storage rule. In some instances, the storage rules may indicate when sensor data is to be overwritten, lengths of time that the sensor data is to be stored, formats for storing the sensor data, and/or when the sensor data is to be sent to one or more computing devices.
