Stress probe for a vehicle operator

摘要

A process and system for monitoring the ability to work under pressure or receptiveness and effectiveness of a vehicle operator. The EEG-patterns of the mental activity are continuously recorded in various frequency ranges and evaluated according to various criteria. The occurrence of signals shapes or changes which indicate a impairment of operating ability are thus detected and lead, depending upon the detected status, to triggering of stepwise gradually increasing responses, from warning signals up to direct intervention and the control of the vehicle.
