Abstract
The present subject matter relates to providing alerts to the driver based on external environment and location of the vehicle. Data related to external environment to a vehicle is fetched and the location is determined. Based on the fetched external environment data an event is determined. Also, location parameters are also identified. For the location and the parameters of the location, road and the vehicle are determined, the general driving behavior for the particular location is fetched. Based on the determined event warning is generated for a driver of the vehicle. The intensity of the warning is varied based on severity of the event.
Claims19
A method for providing assistance to a driver of a vehicle, comprising:
- detecting a driver based on identification features of the driver;
- determining location of the vehicle;
- monitoring in real-time the driving of the vehicle on a road;
- detecting an event on the road travelled by the vehicle, the event requiring a prompt action from the user;
- fetching general driving behavior from a population of drivers, stored in a central server, for the location;
- receiving parameters about the location, the vehicle, and a road;
- determining whether the driver has initiated a corrective action corresponding to the event;
- and
- providing a suggestive warning to the driver based on the general driving behavior and the parameters, upon absence of the corrective action.
A system for providing alert to a driver of a vehicle comprising:
- a data capturing module, wherein the data capturing module is configured to;
- capture surrounding environment information;
- and
- detect the driver;
- extract identification features;
- and
- identify the driver using the identification features;
- a location determining module, configured to determine location of the vehicle;
- a processing module, communicatively coupled to the data capturing module and the location determining module configured to;
- fetch general driving behavior from a population of drivers, stored in a central server, for the location;
- receive parameters about the location, the vehicle, and a road;
- monitor in real-time the driving of the vehicle on a road;
- detect an event on the road travelled by the vehicle, the event requiring a prompt action from the user;
- determine whether the driver has initiated a corrective action corresponding to the event;
- and
- provide a suggestive warning, to the driver upon absence of the corrective action;
- and
- a warning module, communicatively coupled to the processing module, wherein the warning module receives the suggestive warning and provides it to the driver.
