Driver-Monitoring System

January 14, 2006 · Filed Under Uncategorized 

This sounds kind of cool, but aren’t we getting closer and closer to KITT from Knight Rider? All I need now is TURBO BOOST!

Instead of just watching for hazards on the road, Toyota’s latest precrash safety system is turning its attention to the most likely cause of an accident: you. This spring, Lexus models in Japan will be available with a camera mounted on the steering column that uses facial-recognition software to determine whether you’re watching the road. If not, and the front-mounted radar sees you’re getting too close to something, it will flash a light, then beep and tap the brakes if you persist in rubbernecking.
