  • PSYCHOMOTOR VIGILANCE TESTING FOR PERSONS TASKED WITH MONITORING AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES

    Filed US 20210106266

    PSYCHOMOTOR VIGILANCE TESTING FOR PERSONS TASKED WITH MONITORING AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES

    Assessing a likelihood of a person experiencing a fatigue event when the person tasked with monitoring a vehicle operating in an autonomous driving mode may include receiving a set of response times for a psychomotor vigilance test administered to the person. The test may include a plurality of trials which involve a person lifting a finger from a user input device. Whether the person passed or failed…

    PSYCHOMOTOR VIGILANCE TESTING FOR PERSONS TASKED WITH MONITORING AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES

    Assessing a likelihood of a person experiencing a fatigue event when the person tasked with monitoring a vehicle operating in an autonomous driving mode may include receiving a set of response times for a psychomotor vigilance test administered to the person. The test may include a plurality of trials which involve a person lifting a finger from a user input device. Whether the person passed or failed each trial of the set of trials may be determined. A model trained using data from prior psychomotor vigilance tests administered to the person may be identified for the person. Results of the determinations of whether the person passed or failed each trial of the set of trials may be input into the model in order to determine a value representative of a likelihood of a fatigue event. An intervention response may be initiated based on the value.

  • FATIGUE MONITORING SYSTEM FOR DRIVERS TASKED WITH MONITORING A VEHICLE OPERATING IN AN AUTONOMOUS DRIVING MODE

    Filed 20210291839

    Autonomous vehicles, such as vehicles which do not require a human driver when operating in an autonomous driving mode, may be used to aid in the transport of passengers or items from one location to another. Testing of these vehicles typically involves a “test driver” who is tasked with monitoring the autonomous vehicle to ensure that the vehicle is operating safely. For instance, a person may be expected to monitor the vehicle and the vehicle's environment while the vehicle operates in the…

    Autonomous vehicles, such as vehicles which do not require a human driver when operating in an autonomous driving mode, may be used to aid in the transport of passengers or items from one location to another. Testing of these vehicles typically involves a “test driver” who is tasked with monitoring the autonomous vehicle to ensure that the vehicle is operating safely. For instance, a person may be expected to monitor the vehicle and the vehicle's environment while the vehicle operates in the autonomous driving mode and to be ready to take control of the vehicle should the vehicle not be responding appropriately. Supervision of such vehicles is known to increase a person's susceptibility to fatigue, whether due to sleep deprivation, poor quality sleep, fatigue induced by the task itself, or the interaction of these contributing sources of fatigue. Furthermore, as the performance of autonomous vehicles improve, fewer interventions are by a human driver, the likelihood of fatigue in human test drivers increases.

  • MONITORING HEAD MOVEMENTS OF DRIVERS TASKED WITH MONITORING A VEHICLE OPERATING IN AN AUTONOMOUS DRIVING MODE

    Filed 20210291869

    Aspects of the disclosure relate to analyzing head movements in a test driver tasked with monitoring the driving of a vehicle operating in an autonomous driving mode. For instance, a sensor may be used to capture sensor data of a test driver's head for a period of time. The sensor data may be analyzed to determine whether the test driver's head moved sufficiently enough to suggest that the test driver is engaged in monitoring the driving of the vehicle. Based on the determination of whether the…
