OPERATING ABILITY MONITORING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. An operating ability monitoring system comprising:
- a person-dependent acceleration sensor configured to couple with a machine operator;
a telemetry unit coupled with said person-dependent acceleration sensor;
a second sensor coupled with a vehicle or moving machine operated by said machine operator;
an evaluation unit configured toreceive acceleration values from the person-dependent acceleration sensor and,receive movement values from the second sensor coupled with said vehicle or said moving machine which represent acceleration of said vehicle or said moving machine and,compare the acceleration values from the person-dependent acceleration sensor to the acceleration values from the second sensor coupled with the vehicle or the moving machine and,derive a classification of a current operating ability state based on said compare.

Abstract
An operating ability monitoring system that includes a person-dependent acceleration sensor, a telemetry unit, and an evaluation unit, wherein the person-dependent acceleration sensor and the telemetry unit may be worn by and/or implanted in a machine operator and connected to the evaluation unit, and wherein the evaluation unit is configured to receive acceleration values originating from the person-dependent acceleration sensor and sensor values originating from a further sensor that reflects the movements and/or acceleration of a vehicle or moving machine and to evaluate them by comparing the acceleration values from the person-dependent acceleration sensor to the sensor values associated with the vehicle or moving machine.
