DRIVER ASSISTANCE RECOMMENDATIONS USING SENSOR DATA ASSOCIATED WITH A LOWER EXTREMITY REGION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240317241 titled 'DRIVER ASSISTANCE RECOMMENDATIONS USING SENSOR DATA ASSOCIATED WITH A LOWER EXTREMITY REGION
The abstract of the patent application describes a device that can obtain sensor data related to a driver's control region in a vehicle, detect sensor detections associated with the driver's lower extremities, determine reaction time risk indicators, estimate driver reaction time, and take actions based on this information.
- The device collects sensor data from the driver's control region in a vehicle.
- It detects sensor data related to the driver's lower extremities.
- Based on the sensor data, it determines reaction time risk indicators.
- It estimates the driver's reaction time.
- The device takes actions based on the driver's reaction time or the reaction time risk indicators.
Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in advanced driver assistance systems to improve safety on the roads. - It may also have applications in autonomous vehicles to enhance their ability to react to different driving situations.
Problems Solved: - Addressing the need for real-time monitoring of driver reaction times to prevent accidents. - Improving overall driver safety by providing insights into potential risks.
Benefits: - Enhanced safety for drivers and passengers. - Potential reduction in accidents and injuries on the road. - Improved efficiency in vehicle control systems.
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhancing Driver Safety with Advanced Reaction Time Monitoring Technology" This technology could be utilized by automotive manufacturers, fleet management companies, and insurance companies to enhance driver safety, reduce accidents, and improve overall road safety. The market implications include increased demand for vehicles equipped with advanced safety features and a potential decrease in insurance claims related to accidents.
Questions about Reaction Time Monitoring Technology: 1. How does this technology compare to existing driver monitoring systems in vehicles? This technology offers real-time monitoring of driver reaction times, providing more accurate insights into potential risks compared to traditional systems that may not focus specifically on reaction times.
2. What are the potential privacy concerns associated with implementing this technology in vehicles? Privacy concerns may arise regarding the collection and storage of sensitive biometric data related to driver reaction times. Manufacturers would need to address these concerns through transparent data handling practices and robust security measures.
