ADVANCED SEATBELT INTERLOCK USING VIDEO RECOGNITION

摘要

Computing devices, methods, and systems for locking vehicle operations when an occupant is not wearing a correctly positioned seatbelt are disclosed. One example method for locking vehicle operations includes identifying an occupant position and a seatbelt position based on information relating to an occupant of the vehicle and a seatbelt associated with the occupant; determining whether the occupant is correctly wearing the seatbelt based at least in part on the occupant position, the seatbelt position, and a reference model; and locking one or more vehicle operations if the occupant is not correctly wearing the seatbelt. Example implementations include using depth-sensing cameras, rendering a three-dimensional model representing the occupant position and the seatbelt position, and comparing the three-dimensional model and the reference model. Examples of vehicle operations that may be locked include ignition operations, gear shift operations, and autonomous driving operations.

1. A computing device for a vehicle, comprising:
one or more processors for controlling the operations of the computing device; and a memory for storing data and program instructions used by the one or more processors, wherein the one or more processors are configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to:
identify an occupant position and a seatbelt position based on information relating to an occupant of the vehicle and a seatbelt associated with the occupant;determine whether the occupant is correctly wearing the seatbelt based at least in part on the occupant position, the seatbelt position, and a reference model including one or more skeletal models wearing seatbelts in correct and incorrect ways; andlock one or more vehicle operations if the occupant is not correctly wearing the seatbelt.
