EMOTIONAL STATE ASSESSMENT WITH DYNAMIC USE OF PHYSIOLOGICAL SENSOR RESPONSES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18048242 titled 'EMOTIONAL STATE ASSESSMENT WITH DYNAMIC USE OF PHYSIOLOGICAL SENSOR RESPONSES
The patent application describes a system for dynamically adjusting interactions between an ADAS equipped vehicle and its occupants based on physiological data.
- Physiological sensors are placed on the vehicle to collect data on the occupants.
- Control modules analyze the sensor data to predict stress levels of the occupants.
- The system then adapts the vehicle's ADAS actions to reduce the occupants' stress levels.
Potential Applications: - Automotive industry for enhancing passenger comfort and safety. - Healthcare industry for monitoring stress levels in patients during transportation.
Problems Solved: - Addressing occupant stress levels in vehicles to improve overall well-being. - Enhancing the effectiveness of ADAS systems by considering occupants' physiological states.
Benefits: - Improved comfort and safety for vehicle occupants. - Personalized ADAS actions based on real-time physiological data.
Commercial Applications: - "Dynamic Stress-Adaptive ADAS System for Enhanced Passenger Experience in Vehicles"
Prior Art: No prior art information provided in the abstract.
Frequently Updated Research: No information on frequently updated research related to this technology.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the system differentiate between different levels of stress in occupants? 2. Can the system be integrated with other vehicle safety features to further enhance passenger well-being?
Original Abstract Submitted
A system for dynamically adjusting interactions between an ADAS equipped vehicle and occupants of the vehicle includes one or more physiological sensors disposed on the vehicle and one or more control modules having a processor, a memory, and input/output (I/O) ports in communication with the one or more physiological sensors. The control modules execute program code portions stored in the memory that: collect sensor data from the one or more physiological sensors; analyze the sensor data and select a subset of the sensor data corresponding to a subset of the one or more physiological sensors; predicts, based on the subset of the sensor data, that an occupant of the vehicle is experiencing an increase in stress level; and adapt an ADAS action of the vehicle to reduce an occupant stress level from a first level to a second level lower than the first level.
