Abstract
An apparatus includes a capture device and a processor. The capture device may be configured to generate a plurality of video frames corresponding to users of a vehicle. The processor may be configured to perform operations to detect objects in the video frames, detect users of the vehicle based on the objects detected in the video frames, determine a comfort profile for the users and select a reaction to adjust vehicle components according to the comfort profile of the detected users. The comfort profile may be determined in response to characteristics of the users. The characteristics of the users may be determined by performing the operations on each of the users.
Claims18
An apparatus comprising:
- a capture device configured to generate a plurality of video frames corresponding to users of a vehicle;
- and
- a processor configured to (i) perform computer vision operations to detect objects in said video frames by applying a feature detection window to each of a plurality of layers in each of the video frames, (ii) detect users of said vehicle based on said objects detected in said video frames, (iii) determine a comfort profile for said users and (iv) select a reaction to adjust vehicle components according to said comfort profile of said detected users, wherein (a) said comfort profile is determined in response to characteristics of said users, (b) said characteristics of said users are determined by performing said operations on each of said users and (c) said computer vision operations are performed by applying a convolution operation using matrix multiplication of said plurality of layers defined by said feature detection window.
