Abstract
An on-vehicle emergency notification device that performs notification processing when an emergency event of a vehicle occurs, using a power accumulated in a battery mounted on the vehicle, includes: a voice communication unit that performs voice communication with a notification center via a voice call when the emergency event occurs; and an image sending unit that wirelessly sends images around the vehicle to the notification center when the emergency event occurs. After the emergency event occurs, a wireless sending of images by the image sending unit is inhibited if a battery power level of the battery becomes lower than a predetermined value.
