MONITORING AND SCORING PASSENGER ATTENTION

Abstract:

Disclosed herein is a passenger monitoring system for monitoring an observed attribute of a passenger in a vehicle. The observed attribute may include a gaze of the passenger, a head track of the passenger, and other observations about the passenger in the vehicle. Based on the observed attribute(s), a field of view of the passenger may be determined. Based on the field of view, a focus point of the passenger may be determined, where the focus point is estimated to be within the field of view. If a sign (e.g., a road sign, a billboard, etc.) is within the field of view of the passenger, record an attention score for the sign based on a duration of time during which the sign is within the field of view and estimated to be the focus point of the passenger.
