Keynote: Mandatory driver monitoring legislation by 2027 – Boosting automotive safety and combating distracted driving

Distracted driving is a pressing issue in the United States, resulting in more than 3,000 annual fatalities. This alarming statistic underscores the critical need for enhanced safety measures on our roadways. Paradoxically, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), designed to increase safety, have been found to inadvertently foster driver complacency, thus exacerbating the risk to road safety.Read more

Case study: Improving passengers’ comfort experience through a user-centered interior design – Learnings from the aviation industry

To better understand the comfort perception of aircraft passengers, the ComfDemo project was set to measure the effect of environmental conditions on passenger comfort with an ATR72 aircraft. The instrumented test consisted of two flights of 70 minutes with each 50 participants each, who answered several comfort questionnaires. Additionally, recordings were made of the usingRead more

Case study: Leveraging interior sensing solutions to determine fitness to drive

A diverse range of interior sensing methods, including cameras, radars, and other alternative sensors are already equipping vehicles on our roads today. To ensure driver safety, these technologies are developed to observe driver and occupant actions, as well as cognitive states, allowing for a comprehensive evaluation of his/her fitness to operate a vehicle. This presentationRead more
