Using smart materials to monitor physiological signals of driver's inattention
The HARKEN project gathers a consortium of European research centres and enterprises that produce vehicle components, smart materials, and sensors for biomonitoring, to create a physiological monitor integrated in the car. This system is in constant contact with the driver's body through the car seat cover and the safety belt, and it monitors the physiological, mechanical activity related to respiration and the cardiac cycle. Redundant measures of vibrations and artefacts that may distort these signals are used to improve their quality by means of adaptive filters, programmed in a signal processing unit. (Paper No. 78-P).
