The driver behavior output can be used in a variety of applications. For example, the output can be used to determine a ranking or risk factor for a driver, for example, that includes an associate risk of the driver, for the purpose of underwriting an insurance premium. In some embodiments, for example, the total number of risky behaviors may be compared with the “normal” behaviors on a percent driving time basis to determine degree of risk (or lack thereof) for the particular driver. Additional uses and determinations of the driver behavior are further disclosed and described in the embodiments herein.
FIG. 1 illustrates an embodiment of an exemplary computing device 100 for capturing, generating, storing, and/or transmitting and receiving 2D or 3D imagery. In certain embodiments, the computing device may be a portable device. For example, the computing device can be a tablet device or smart phone that includes image capture functionality, such as a built-in camera. In other embodiments, the computing device, or its components, may be installed as part of a larger device or equipment, such as within the dashboard of a vehicle or otherwise installed or mounted in an interior section of the vehicle. In other embodiments the computing device may be installed or mounted on an outside section vehicle, e.g., for capturing 2D and 3D images, and/or video associated with the vehicle, the vehicle's environment, operators or passengers of the vehicle, or pedestrians within the vehicle's environment.
