  • Patent number: 10357195
    Abstract: A system and method for monitoring the condition of the driver of a vehicle including both the level of distraction being experienced by him/her as well his/her cardiac health are described. The system can detect and predict behavioral and cognitive distraction in real time. It can also monitor a driver's physical condition, detect and predict health events such as a myocardial infarction. The system can fuse inputs from various sensors and components including vehicle information (through CAN networks or other), IR camera, heart rate sensors, eye tracking and pupillometry technology. The distraction detection and health monitoring can be done in separate modules. Fusion algorithms can detect and predict risk related to the driver's lack of attention and the likelihood that he/she is or will experience a cardiac event.

  • Publication number: 20160084870
    Abstract: A sensor includes a first substrate, a supporter connected to the first substrate, a weight facing the first substrate, a beam of which first end is connected to the supporter and of which second end is connected to the weight, a second substrate facing the weight, and a first projection disposed on the first substrate. This senor allows effectively preventing the beam from a breakage caused by the beam twisted due to a rotation of the weight when an impact is applied to the sensor. The sensor thus can improve anti-impact property.
