DRIVER AND ENVIRONMENT MONITORING TO PREDICT HUMAN DRIVING MANEUVERS AND REDUCE HUMAN DRIVING ERRORS

Abstract:

Techniques are disclosed to detect, inform, and automatically correct typical awareness-related human driver mistakes. This may include those that are caused by a misunderstanding of the current situation, a lack of focus or attention, and/or overconfidence in any currently-engaged assistance features. The disclosure is directed to the prediction of vehicle maneuvers using driver and external environment modeling. The consequence of executing a predicted maneuver is categorized based upon its risk or danger posed to the driving environment, and the vehicle may execute various actions based upon the categorization of a predicted riving maneuver to mitigate or eliminate that risk.
