New technologies for self-driving cars: driving and watching baby

At present, the self-driving car has a powerful identification capability that can sense traffic conditions outside the car, pedestrians and vehicles, and provide services for car driving. However, if you want a self-driving car to have a better driving and riding experience, you also need to let the computer understand the interior of the car and serve people in the car.

According to foreign media reports, the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Research Promotion (Fraunhofer), Germany’s largest applied scientific research institute, has collaborated with Volkswagen, Visteon, Bosch and other car companies to jointly develop “intelligent automotive interior monitoring”. The project is provided by the German government. financial support.

The project is currently researching and developing content that identifies common objects and characters in the car. The intelligent monitoring inside the car uses the built-in camera to identify the number of passengers in the car, the body type and the sitting posture, so as to predict the activities of people in the car, and also determine the conditions outside the car based on the behavior of the person in the car.

Although there are devices such as weight sensors on the market that can perform some internal sensing, overall, their perceived ability is relatively weak, and they are not smart. Therefore, more comprehensive sensors must be added to serve them. According to Michael Voit, a senior researcher at Fraunhofer, this project uses a depth-sensing camera to identify the behavior of passengers in the vehicle, combined with the external recognition features of a self-driving car. The two complement each other and can be better and faster. There are many benefits to preventing emergencies. In the event of a car accident, the car will be automatically steered according to the internal conditions of the ride so as to avoid hitting the part where the passenger is. The airbag will also adjust the degree of inflation according to the size and position of the passenger. If the child slides down from the rear seat, the car can Automatically remind parents.

The smart cameras in this project are now only installed on the R&D company's driving simulator. Fraunhofer said that in the future they will plan to install them on small trucks for actual testing.
