First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of controlling a robotic vehicle, comprising:
- determining, by one or more processors, an attention level of an operator controlling the robotic vehicle;
determining, by one or more processors, that the attention level of the operator is below an acceptable level; and
automatically controlling the robotic vehicle, by one or more processors, in response to determining that the attention level of the operator is below an acceptable level.

Abstract
Embodiments include devices and methods for controlling a robotic vehicle. In one example, the method may include determining an attention level of an operator controlling the robotic vehicle, determining that the attention level of the operator is below an acceptable level and automatically controlling the robotic vehicle in response to determining that the attention level of the operator is below an acceptable level.
