METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ESTIMATING A DIRECTION OF A VIEW OF A VEHICLE OCCUPANT, METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETERMINING A HEAD MOVEMENT GAIN PARAMETER SPECIFIC FOR A VEHICLE OCCUPANT, AND METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ESTIMATING THE DIRECTION OF VIEW OF A VEHICLE OCCUPANT

摘要

A method for estimating a direction of view of an occupant of a vehicle. The method includes a step of ascertaining a head fixation position of the head of the vehicle occupant, terminating a current head movement of the head, using sensor data concerning an angular speed of the current head movement, and a step of combining the head fixation position and a head movement gain parameter in order to estimate the direction of view of the vehicle occupant, the head movement gain parameter being a function of a specific human head movement pattern during a visual fixing of an object.

1. A method for estimating a direction of view of an occupant of a vehicle, the method including the following steps:
ascertaining a head fixation position of a head of the vehicle occupant, which terminates a current head movement of the head, using sensor data concerning an angular speed of the current head movement; and combining the head fixation position and a head movement gain parameter to estimate the direction of view of the vehicle occupant, the head movement gain parameter being a function of a head movement pattern individual for a vehicle occupant during a visual fixing of an object.
