Panasonic develops technology for detecting driver drowsiness
Company to provide technology samples from October this year
Panasonic has developed a drowsiness-control technology that can measure a driver’s state of drowsiness along with reading the in-vehicle environment, the company announced in a press release on 27 July. According to the company, the technology can help the driver stay awake by initially detecting shallow drowsiness (slightly drowsy) by reading facial expressions as well as blinking patterns without any physical contact. This is managed with the help of an in-vehicle camera which further sends signals to be processed via artificial intelligence. Panasonic said samples of this technology will be available from October 2017.
