MONITORING SYSTEM, STORAGE MEDIUM STORING COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR MONITORING AND METHOD FOR MONITORING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18224303 titled 'MONITORING SYSTEM, STORAGE MEDIUM STORING COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR MONITORING AND METHOD FOR MONITORING
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a monitoring system that can notify a driver in a tactually recognizable manner if their seat position is not within a recommended range for safe driving. The system includes a notifying unit and a processor that determines the seat position and sends a move request to adjust it if necessary.
- The monitoring system includes a notifying unit capable of tactually notifying the driver of information.
- The processor determines if the driver's seat position is within a recommended range for safe driving.
- If the seat position is not within the recommended range, the system notifies the driver to adjust it.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various vehicles, such as cars, trucks, and buses, to ensure that drivers are in a safe and comfortable position while driving.
Problems Solved
This technology helps prevent potential accidents caused by drivers sitting in unsafe positions while operating a vehicle.
Benefits
The system enhances driver safety by alerting them to adjust their seat position for optimal driving conditions.
Potential Commercial Applications
"Enhancing Driver Safety with Seat Position Monitoring Technology"
Possible Prior Art
