A driver monitoring system that uses an AI-enabled in car camera to detect when a driver is becoming drowsy or distracted could help save tens of thousands of lives over the next 20 years it is claimed.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Developed by engineers at Bosch, the technology \u2013 which is scheduled to go into production in 2022 \u2013 uses a camera integrated in the steering wheel to detect when a driver\u2019s eyelids are getting heavy, when they are distracted, and when they turn their head toward their passenger or the rear seats.<\/span><\/p>\n

Intelligent image-processing algorithms and machine learning technologies \u2013 trained using real-world examples \u2013 are then able to make a judgement on how tired the driver is on the basis of factors such as eyelid position and eye-blink rate.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to Bosch, if the system determines that the driver is tired or distracted, it will then provide an alert or warning and use the driver assistance systems to intervene. \u201cIf the car knows what its driver and occupants are doing, driving will become safer and more convenient,\u201d commented Harald Kroeger, member of the Robert Bosch GmbH board of management.<\/span><\/p>\n

The system also uses a camera mounted above or below the rear-view mirror to monitor the other passengers in the car. This is able to detect whether children in the back of the car have carelessly unfastened their seat belts, or whether someone is sitting in such a way that the airbags and seat tensioner wouldn\u2019t protect then in the event of an accident.<\/span><\/p>\n

As well as improving levels of safety, the technology is also expected to play an important role addressing a fundamental problem of self-driving cars, by helping the vehicle to make a safe judgement on when to hand over responsibility to a human driver after a period of autonomous operation.<\/span><\/p>\n
