Systems and methods for assessing equipment operator fatigue and using fatigue-risk-informed safety-performance-based systems and methods to replace or supplement prescriptive work-rest regulations
First Claim
1. A fatigue risk assessment and modification system for assessing fatigue risk of an individual, the system comprising:
- an input device which receives at least one of current work-rest pattern and sleep data from of an individual;
a data aggregation and processing system which combines the at least one of the current work-rest pattern and the sleep data with previous data related to the individual to generate at least one of a fatigue risk assessment result from the combination of the at least one of the current work-rest pattern and the sleep data and previous data related to the individual, a diagnostic assessment report that includes a causation of any excessive fatigue risk, and a corrective intervention plan for reducing excessive future fatigue risk of the individual based on at least one of the fatigue risk assessment result and the diagnostic assessment report; and
at least one output display which outputs at least one of the fatigue risk assessment result, the diagnostic assessment report, and the corrective intervention plan in a user-readable format to a user.

Abstract
In a system and method for assessing and modifying fatigue, an input device receives current work-rest pattern and/or sleep data from an individual. A data aggregation and processing platform combines the current work-rest pattern and/or sleep data with previous data related to the individual to generate a fatigue assessment result, a diagnostic assessment result, and a corrective intervention result. At least one output display outputs the fatigue assessment result, diagnostic assessment result and corrective intervention result in a user-readable format to a user. The user uses this information to revise the work-rest pattern to reduce or control future fatigue risk.
