First Claim
Patent Images
1. ) A method of controlling a driver-operated vehicle (1);
- the method comprising the steps of;
recording the values of a number of psychophysical parameters of the driver over a first measuring interval;
making a first evaluation of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical condition on the basis of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical parameter values over the first measuring interval;
recording the values of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical parameters over a second measuring interval following the first measuring interval;
making a second evaluation of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical condition on the basis of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical parameter values over the second measuring interval;
comparing the first and second evaluation of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical condition to determine a change in the driver'"'"'s psychophysical condition; and
modifying the dynamic performance of the vehicle (1) as a function of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical condition, to adapt dynamic performance of the vehicle (1) to the change in the driver'"'"'s psychophysical condition.

Abstract
A method of controlling a driver-operated vehicle; the method including the steps of:
- recording the values of a number of psychophysical parameters of the driver over a first measuring interval; making a first evaluation of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical condition on the basis of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical parameter values over the first measuring interval; recording the values of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical parameters over a second measuring interval following the first measuring interval; making a second evaluation of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical condition on the basis of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical parameter values over the second measuring interval; comparing the first and second evaluation of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical condition to determine a change in the driver'"'"'s psychophysical condition; and modifying the dynamic performance of the vehicle as a function of the driver'"'"'s psychophysical condition, to adapt dynamic performance of the vehicle to the change in the driver'"'"'s psychophysical condition.
