APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MONITORING DRIVER STATE BY DRIVING PATTERN LEARNING

摘要

The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for monitoring driver state through driving pattern learning. The apparatus for monitoring driver state through driving pattern learning includes: a traveling pattern monitoring part for monitoring traveling pattern by analyzing vehicle operation state sensed through an internal sensor of a vehicle and surrounding condition information sensed through an external sensor of the vehicle during vehicle traveling; a driver recognition part for recognizing a driver corresponding to the traveling pattern from the driving pattern monitoring part, by calling a driver DB where driving pattern information of the driver is registered; a driving pattern learning part for learning driving pattern of the driver on the ground of the traveling pattern from the traveling pattern monitoring part, and for storing the driving pattern learning information per driver into a driving pattern learning DB; and a driver state monitoring part which calls the driving pattern learning information corresponding to the driver recognized by the driver recognition part from the driving pattern learning DB and compares the driving pattern learning information with the traveling pattern from the traveling pattern monitoring part, and monitors attention dispersion state of the driver from the comparison result.
