Passenger Behavior Prediction Alerts for Safer In-Vehicle Monitoring
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional baby mirrors and monitors do not allow drivers to predict infant behaviors like fussing or crying while driving, leading to driver stress and inattentive driving, compromising safety.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus that communicates with a sensor device to receive video and environmental information, analyzes passenger behavior signs, and adjusts output to alert the driver, ensuring safe driving and reducing stress by providing relevant messages and alerts.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If a driver uses a conventional baby mirror or monitor to check the passenger, then the driver can see the current state of the passenger, but the driver cannot predict future behaviors such as fussing, crying, or excretion, leading to driver stress and inattentive driving
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary analysis of passenger behavior signs (facial expressions, body movements, environmental factors) to predict future behaviors such as fussing, crying, or excretion before they occur. This allows the driver to be prepared in advance, reducing stress and maintaining attention on the road while ensuring safe driving.
2Reliability
If the driver continuously monitors the passenger to predict behavior, then the driver can respond to emergencies, but the driver cannot enjoy going out and may become inattentive due to constant worry
Solution Approach 1:
The system continuously monitors passenger behavior signs and provides real-time feedback to the driver through predictions and alerts. This feedback mechanism allows the driver to respond to emergencies effectively while reducing stress, as the system handles the continuous monitoring and analysis, enabling the driver to enjoy the outing while maintaining safety.
3Loss of information
If the system provides continuous video and alerts to the driver, then the driver can monitor the passenger closely, but the driver may be distracted from the road and compromise safe driving
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts only the most critical and relevant passenger behavior information (predicted behaviors, immediate needs) and presents it to the driver in a simplified manner. This selective information extraction allows the driver to stay informed about passenger status without being overwhelmed by continuous video feeds, thereby maintaining attention on the road and ensuring safe driving.

AI summary
According to the present disclosure, an information processing apparatus communicates with a sensor device that transmits a video of a passenger and environmental information at least when a vehicle is moving. The information processing apparatus includes a memory, and a hardware processor coupled to the memory. The hardware processor being configured to: receive the video and the environmental information from the sensor device; output the received video; analyze information regarding a behavior sign of the passenger based on at least one of the received video and a change in the environmental information accompanying movement of the vehicle; and perform output control of changing an output way and outputting message information, based on an analysis result of the behavior sign.
