Abstract: The present invention provides a vehicle mountable universal driver assistance device. This device includes a housing unit encasing a common module on which are mounted a first camera module, a second camera module, different from the first camera module, and a ranging module. The common module may be moved along an axis to adjust the viewing angle of the first camera, second camera and ranging module. The device can be mounted on windshield of any vehicle and can be calibrated accordingly. The intensity and frequency of the warning alert from the warning display device are based on the ambient noise level of the driver.

Abstract: The present subject matter relates to a method and system maintaining driver alertness while driving mode of a vehicle is changed from manual to autonomous driving mode. The system includes a monitoring module to detect a transition from a manual drive mode to an autonomous drive mode. Based on this, a driver monitoring module gets activated. The driver monitoring module once activated, monitors the driver alertness during the autonomous drive mode. The system further includes an interactive module, which is connected to the monitoring module that gets activated in case alertness level of the driver falls below a first threshold value. The first threshold value may be determined based on multiple attributes. Further, the interactive training program is deactivated if the alertness of the driver is equal or greater than a second threshold value.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system of historical emotion based driver advanced assistance. In this method, a combination of external environment to a vehicle on which the advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) is mounted fetched by forward looking cameras is combined with rear looking camera for internal environment or driver state, is generated. The generated combination is utilized to analyze is there is any critical situation that is upcoming. For providing feedback for such situation, the ADAS fetches a historical combination situation similar to the current situation combination. The intensity of the feedback is varied as per the driver reaction to the feedback provided to the driver at such historical combination situation.

Abstract: The present subject matter relates to varying warning intensity based on driving behaviour and driver state. Data related to external environment to a vehicle is fetched and the driver state and driving behavior is monitored. Based on the fetched data and monitored data, an event is determined, and warning is generated for a driver of the vehicle. The intensity of the warning is varied based on severity of the event and the driver state and the driving behavior.

In this method, a combination of external environment to a vehicle on which the advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) is mounted fetched by forward looking cameras is combined with rear looking camera for internal environment or driver state, is generated. The generated combination is utilized to analyze is there is any critical situation that is upcoming. For providing feedback for such situation, processor within the ADAS transmits the current combination situation to a remote server that stores historical feedback and driver reactions for various combination of situations. For the current combination situation, a historical combination situation is fetched and corresponding feedbacks analyzed and an ideal feedback, that has comparatively least number of negative driver reactions, is determined.

Abstract: The present subject matter relates to providing alerts to the driver based on comparison between the driver's driving behaviour and the general driving behavior. Driver presence is determined after which the driver is identified using identification attributes extracted. Further, data related to external environment to a vehicle is fetched. Based on the fetched external environment data an event is determined. Also, the driving behavior of the driver is compared with the general driving behavior for the vehicle. Based on the determined event and the deviations of driver's driving behavior from the general driving behavior, suggestive alert is generated for the driver of the vehicle. The intensity of the warning is varied based on severity of the event.

Abstract: The present subject matter relates to providing alerts to the driver based on external environment and location of the vehicle. Data related to external environment to a vehicle is fetched and the location is determined. Based on the fetched external environment data an event is determined. Also, location parameters are also identified. For the location and the parameters of the location, road and the vehicle are determined, the general driving behavior for the particular location is fetched. Based on the determined event warning is generated for a driver of the vehicle. The intensity of the warning is varied based on severity of the event.

Abstract: A tethered UAV (102) is disclosed. The UAV (102) may carry a payload (104). The payload may include camera, radio mast, or sensors. Power supply to the UAV (102) via a tether cable (108) from a ground station (106) may be varied using a reconfigurable power converter. Further, the UAV (102) may enter an autopilot mode based on a disruption of power supply from a power source at the ground station (106), low energy level of the power source, and a temperature of the power converter. In the autopilot mode, power may be supplied to the UAV (102) from an on-board battery and wireless communication may be initiated between the UAV (102) and the ground station (106) via a network (110).

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for monitoring driver inattentiveness using plurality of physiological factors of the driver. In this method, captured images and/or short videos are used to determine the physiological factors of the driver. The first physiological factor from the plurality of physiological factors is used to determine the level of drowsiness and/or inattentiveness of the driver, which further supported by the second physiological factor. The data generated from the analysis of first and second physiological factors is further utilized to generate a predictive warning to the driver. The intensity level of the warning is varied based on the analyzed level of inattentiveness of the driver. The warning may be an audio warning, a visual warning, an audio-visual warning, haptic warning like vibration, etc.
