Abstract
A driver mental condition information system in which physiological data of the driver of a vehicle is detected and the mental condition of the driver is calculated as a mental condition evaluation value in accordance with the physiological data, thereby indicating the mental condition of the driver, using the mental condition evaluation value along with a threshold value.
Claims13
A driver mental condition information system comprising
- a physiological data detector which detects physiological data of a driver of a vehicle,
