Method and Apparatus for Providing Driver Information Via Audio and Video Metadata Extraction
First Claim
1. A system for providing driver fingerprint via metadata extraction managed by a driver rating (“
- DR”
) model trained by a machine learning center (“
MLC”
) coupled to a cloud based network (“
CBN”
), comprising;
a plurality of outward facing cameras mounted on a vehicle collecting external images representing a surrounding environment in which the vehicle operates;
a plurality of inward facing cameras mounted in the vehicle collecting internal images including operator body expression representing at least operator'"'"'s attention; and
a vehicle onboard computer (“
VOC”
), coupled to CBN, the plurality of outward facing cameras, and the plurality of inward facing cameras, configured to determine identity of operator and current operating style in response to the collected internal images, the collected external images, and historical stored data.

Abstract
A method and/or system is able to provide driver fingerprint via metadata extraction managed by a driver rating (“DR”) model trained by a machine learning center (“MLC”) coupled to a cloud based network (“CBN”). In one embodiment, a DR system includes a set of outward facing cameras, a set of inward facing cameras, and a vehicle onboard computer (“VOC”). The set of outward facing cameras mounted on a vehicle is used to collect external images representing a surrounding environment in which the vehicle operates. The set of inward facing cameras mounted in the vehicle is used to collect internal images including operator body expression representing at least operator'"'"'s attention. The VOC is configured to determine the identity of operator and current operating style in response to the collected internal images, the collected external images, and historical stored data.

14. A method for providing driver rating via metadata extraction utilizing a virtuous cycle including sensors, machine learning center, and cloud based network, comprising:
-
activating a set of outward facing cameras mounted on a vehicle for recording external surrounding images representing a geographic environment in which the vehicle operates; enabling at least a portion of inward facing cameras mounted in the vehicle for collecting interior images of the vehicle; calculating a driver style vector in accordance with external surrounding images, the internal images, and historical data; and generating a driver rating associated to operator by performing a driver style analysis conducted by a driver rating (“
DR”
) model trained by the virtuous cycle. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)

18. A method configured to provide adaptive driver assistant (“
- ADA”
) utilizing a virtuous cycle containing sensors, machine learning center (“
MLC”
), and cloud based network (“
CBN”
), comprising;monitoring operator body language of an operator captured by a set of interior sensors and capturing surrounding information observed by a set of exterior sensors onboard a vehicle as the vehicle is in motion; selectively recording data relating to the operator body language and the surrounding information in accordance with a containerized ADA model generated by MLC; detecting an abnormal driving activity in accordance with the operator body language and surrounding information by the ADA model while the vehicle is in driving mode; and generating a process of adaptive advice and assistance by ADA model in response to the surrounding images, the operator body language, and historical data. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
