Apparatus and Method for Controlling a User Situation Awareness Modification of a User of a Vehicle, and a User Situation Awareness Modification Processing System
First Claim
1. An apparatus configured to control a user situation awareness modification of a user of a vehicle, the apparatus comprising:
- an input module configured to repeatedly receive a first event detection signal comprising information related to a detected event outside a vehicle and to repeatedly receive a first user detection signal comprising information related to a reaction or a missing reaction of a user to the detected event outside the vehicle; and
a processing module configured to determine a user situation awareness level based on the information related to the detected event outside the vehicle and the information related to the reaction of the user to the detected event, and to generate a control signal configured to control a user situation awareness modification module based on the determined user situation awareness level.

Abstract
An apparatus configured to control a user situation awareness modification of a user of a vehicle, which includes input module configured to repeatedly receive a first event detection signal comprising information related to a detected event outside a vehicle and to repeatedly receive a first user detection signal comprising information related to a reaction or a missing reaction of a user to the detected event outside the vehicle. The apparatus further includes a processing module configured to determine a user situation awareness level based on the information related to the detected event outside the vehicle and the information related to the reaction of the user to the detected event, and to generate a control signal configured to control a user situation awareness modification module based on the determined user situation awareness level.

19. A partly-autonomous or highly autonomous vehicle comprising an apparatus configured to control a user situation awareness modification of a user of a vehicle, the apparatus comprising:
-
an input module configured to repeatedly receive a first event detection signal comprising information related to a detected event outside a vehicle and to repeatedly receive a first user detection signal comprising information related to a reaction or a missing reaction of a user to the detected event outside the vehicle; and a processing module configured to determine a user situation awareness level based on the information related to the detected event outside the vehicle and the information related to the reaction of the user to the detected event, and to generate a control signal configured to control a user situation awareness modification module based on the determined user situation awareness level.

20. A method for controlling a user situation awareness modification of a user of a vehicle, the method comprising:
-
repeatedly receiving a first event detection signal comprising information related to a detected event outside a vehicle; repeatedly receiving a first user detection signal comprising information related to a reaction or a missing reaction of a user to the detected event outside the vehicle; determining a user situation awareness level based on the information related to the detected event outside the vehicle and the information related to the reaction of the user to the detected event; and generating a control signal configured to control a user situation awareness modification module based on the determined user situation awareness level.
