Original Abstract Submitted
A vehicle including a steering wheel, a first detection unit, a second detection unit and a processor is disclosed. The first detection unit may be configured to detect a first parameter associated with the steering wheel, and the second detection unit may be configured to capture an input associated with a vehicle occupant. The processor may be configured to obtain the input and the first parameter, and estimate a second parameter associated with a vehicle occupant interaction with the steering wheel based on the input. The processor may be further configured to correlate the first parameter and the second parameter, and determine that a predefined condition may be met based on the correlation. The processor may further transmit a notification responsive to a determination that the predefined condition may be met.
