This system monitors steering patterns to assess driver alertness. Sudden, erratic corrections after a period of consistent driving might indicate drowsiness or inattention. The system then provides a visual and audible alert, prompting the driver to take a break.
Enhanced safety on the road is the primary objective. By providing timely warnings, the system can help prevent accidents caused by driver fatigue or distraction. This technology contributes to a more vigilant driving environment, reducing the risks associated with impaired driving. Such systems represent a significant advancement in automotive safety, building upon earlier driver-assist features.
