Tracker for sleepy drivers at the wheel

2017 11th International Conference on Signal Processing and Communication Systems (ICSPCS), 2017
Sleepiness behind the wheel is the major contribution to fatal accidents. Recognizing the drowsiness of the driver is one of the surest methods for measuring driver drowsiness. In this paper a tracker has been created which plans to evaluate driver's fatigue, exhaustion, and diversion throughout driving.

Neuromuscular Performance Characteristics of Open-Wheel and Rally Drivers

The Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2005
The purpose of the present study was to investigate neuromuscular performance characteristics in open-wheel and rally drivers using the cross-sectional study design. The subjects (N = 28) consisted of experienced international-level open-wheel drivers (n = 9), experienced international-level rally drivers (n = 9) and a physically active nondriving male

Driver verification based on handgrip recognition on steering wheel

2011 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, 2011
This paper presents a novel driver verification algorithm based on the recognition of handgrip patterns on steering wheel. A pressure sensitive mat mounted on a steering wheel is employed to collect a series of pressure images exerted by the hands of the drivers who intend to start the vehicle.

Driver adaptation to haptic shared control of the steering wheel

2014 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (SMC), 2014
Although the benefits of haptic shared control of the steering wheel have been repeatedly demonstrated, longitudinal studies of how drivers adapt to this kind of system are still lacking. The present study addressed this question by comparing two groups of participants in a driving simulator for an extended time period; one group drove with a shared ...

Take the wheel: Effects of available modalities on driver intervention

2016 IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium (IV), 2016
While automated driving systems will become increasingly capable and common in the future, there will still be instances when human drivers want or need to make corrections to the car's automated driving behavior. We conducted two studies exploring how driving interfaces could be designed to better execute the drivers' intentions.

Airbag Safety and the Distance of the Driver from the Steering Wheel

New England Journal of Medicine, 1998
To the Editor: Actuarial data indicate that driver-side airbags reduce the overall risk of death from a car accident by 11 percent,1 but airbag-induced injuries (both fatal and nonfatal) have been ...

Automobility in flux: More women and older drivers at the wheel [PDF]

DIW Economic Bulletin, 2013
Having barely registered an increase at the beginning of the new millennium, during the economic upturn after 2009, there was significant growth in the mileage by registered motor vehicles in Germany, both in the case of utility vehicles and automobiles. Overall, in 2011, automobiles covered a higher mileage than ever before.
