Abstract

Disclosed are a device, system and methods for detecting an anomaly associated with driving of a vehicle. Z-axis acceleration data is determined at the device. Based on the Z-axis acceleration data, jerk energies are computed and transmitted to the system for analysis. Further, the jerk energies are received for a plurality of trips at the system. Further, at the system, statistical analysis is performed on the jerk energies for determining a hazard rate for each trip of the plurality of trips. Then based on the hazard rate determined for each of the plurality of trips, a trend analysis is performed. Based on the trend analysis, any anomaly associated with the driving of the vehicle is detected. Further, the anomaly detected may be notified to a person associated with the device or with a monitoring terminal.
