Driver Assessment System to Determine a Driver's Ability to Perform Driving Tasks - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17739650 titled 'Driver Assessment System to Determine a Driver's Ability to Perform Driving Tasks
Simplified Explanation
- The patent application describes systems and devices that can determine the current capability of a driver of a vehicle. - The system includes an electronic processor that receives driver data from a smart device associated with the driver. - The driver data includes an indicator of the driver's ability to drive the vehicle. - The processor processes the driver data using a trained model to determine the current capability of the driver. - The system also takes into account the current state of the vehicle. - Based on the driver's current capability and the vehicle's state, the system determines a command to either control or prevent control of the vehicle. - The command is then provided to a system within the vehicle for execution.
Original Abstract Submitted
Systems and devices for determining a current capability of a driver of a vehicle. One embodiment provides an electronic processor to receive, from a smart device associated with a driver of the vehicle, driver data that includes an indicator regarding an ability of the driver to drive the vehicle; process the driver data through a first model to determine a current capability of the driver, the first model trained with previously received driver data for the driver; determine, based on the current capability of the driver and a current state of the vehicle, a command to control or prevent control of the vehicle; and provide the command to a system of the vehicle for execution.
