Verfahren und System zur Bestimmung der Aufmerksamkeit auf einem Objekt

摘要

An object awareness determination system and method of determining awareness of a driver (34) of a vehicle (10) to an object (16) is provided. The system includes an object monitor (18) including an object detection sensor (12A) for sensing an object (16) in a field of view and determining a position of the object (16). The system also includes an eye gaze monitor (38) including an imaging camera (30) oriented to capture images of the vehicle driver (34) including an eye (36) of the driver (34). The gaze monitor (38) determines an eye gaze vector (g). The system further has a controller (60) for determining driver awareness of the object (16) based on the detected object position and the eye gaze vector (g).
