Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors:“Field of the Invention“The invention is based on an apparatus and a method for tiredness detection, in particular for a driverof a vehicle.“Related Art“A tired driver can be detected by means of steering angle monitoring or a driver observation camera.“With steering angle monitoring, it is difficult to distinguish between tired and non-tired drivers. Driverobservation cameras require an additional component and add to the complexity and cost of the vehicle.”In addition to obtaining background information on this patent, NewsRx editors also obtained theinventor’s summary information for this patent: “The invention relates to an apparatus for tirednessdetection. The apparatus is configured to receive a signal from at least one microphone, to acquire a timecharacteristic of yawning actions in the signal, and to use an analysis of the time characteristic to detector not detect a tiredness of the driver from a frequency of yawning, a yawn intensity and/or a temporalcompression between successive yawning actions. A microphone installed in a vehicle can be used to detectthe yawning of the driver. A temporal analysis of this kind is used to infer the tiredness of the driver from the frequency of yawning, the yawn intensity and the temporal compression between successive yawningactions.
