METHOD, MEASURING DEVICE AND CONTROL UNIT FOR ADAPTATION OF VEHICLE CONVOY CONTROL
First Claim
1. A method (400) for adapting a control algorithm comprising at least one driver-dependent parameter, which control algorithm governs the control of a vehicle convoy (200) in which at least a first vehicle (220A) with a first driver (210A) and a second vehicle (220B) with a second driver (210B) are included, characterized by:
- measurement (401) of at least one physical characteristic of the first driver (210A);
determination (402) of the stress level of the first driver based on the performed measurement (401); and
adjustment (403) of the control algorithm to the determined (402) stress level of the first driver, and wherein the control algorithm for the vehicle convoy (200) comprises the action of sending an indication of a stress alarm to other drivers (210B) of vehicles (220A, 220B) in the vehicle convoy (200) when the determined (402) stress level of the first driver exceeds a limit value.

Abstract
A method (400), control device (240) and measuring unit (230) for adapting a control algorithm having at least one driver-dependent parameter, which control algorithm governs the control of a vehicle convoy (200) in which at least a first vehicle 220A with a first driver (210A) and a second vehicle 220B with a second driver (210B) are included. The method includes measurement (401) of at least one physical characteristic of the first driver (210A), determination (402) of the stress level of the driver based on the performed measurement (401), and adaptation (403) of the control algorithm to the determined (402) stress level of the driver.
