Apple applies for a new patent: Unmanned driving | How to see passenger response

July 27, according to AppleInsider, the US Patent and Trademark Office recently announced the latest patent for driverless car technology that Apple applied for in March. This patent will change the driving style according to the passenger's reaction and analyze the vehicle using monitoring sensors. Users determine the appropriate driving style to reduce the likelihood of passengers panic.

According to the patent description, sensor devices located at the front of the car can monitor some passengers or owners in the car and identify them. These internal sensors include optical scanning devices such as lidars, depth cameras and infrared sensors that collect data and then Pass the data to the drive system.

During driving, the sensor can be used to determine each passenger's eye movements, body posture, gestures, pupil dilation, blinking, body temperature, heart rate, sweating, head position and other factors. These data, as well as the previous experience of known users, Can be used to create passenger profiles, enabling the vehicle to choose the most appropriate from many comfort profiles.

The comfort profile specifies the way the vehicle is driven, changing the settings to make the user or passenger feel comfortable as much as possible. These driving control parameters include adjusting linear acceleration, cornering speed, speed of the lane change, stiffness of the suspension, enabling or disabling Traction control, and other factors that determine the final movement of the vehicle.

As the system continues to receive real-time data, if the passenger's status changes, the comfort condition changes. For example, if the system detects that the passenger's pressure level rises during a fast turn, it can switch to another slower, smoother Comfort mode to eliminate this pressure.
