Automated safety vehicle stop system for cardiac emergencies

Résumé fourni par la source

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a considerable risk factor of driving. The pain of cardiac events distracts driver's concentration, and ischemia brought by the CVD induces incapacity of driving. In this study, a prototype of the automated safety vehicle stop system has been developed. The system collects bio-signals through the steer-sensor and recognizes the driver's posture by a camera, and detects driver's incapacity. The system takes over the vehicle maneuver when the driver lost his capacity, and automatically drives to a safety spot by sensing the traffic environment. The system has been demonstrated in a prepared emergency scenario and verified the potential. This paper describes the concept and configuration of the system, and a future prospect of the study.
