Detecting risky driving with machine vision
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for driver risk determination using machine vision, comprising:
- an interface to receive one or more video data streams of a vehicle, wherein the one or more video data streams comprise one or more of a video stream from an interior camera of the vehicle and a video stream from an exterior camera of the vehicle;
one or more processors to;
determine, using machine vision, whether a driving behavior risk type appears in one of the one or more video data streams;
in response to the driving behavior risk type appearing in the one of the one or more video data streams;
indicate an incidence of a driver behavior risk type;
determine a change in a driver risk based at least on a comparison of a number of incidences of driver risk types over a first period of time and a number of incidences of driver risk types over a second period of time, wherein the number of incidences of driver risk types over the second period of time includes the incidence of the driver behavior risk type, wherein the first period of time consists of N units of time, wherein the second period of time consists of a most recent 1/N units of time, and wherein the first period of time includes the second period of time; and
determine that the change in driver risk comprises an increase in risk when the number of incidences of driver risk types over the second period of time exceeds the number of incidences of driver risk types over the first period of time divided by N.

Abstract
A system for driver risk determination using machine vision includes an interface and one or more processors. The interface is to receive one or more video data streams. The one or more processors is/are to determine, whether a driving behavior risk type appears in one of the one or more video data streams; and in the event that the driving behavior risk type appears in the one of the one or more video data streams, indicate the driver behavior risk type.

33. A method for driver risk determination using machine vision, comprising:
-
receiving one or more video data streams of a vehicle, the one or more video data streams comprising one or more of a video stream from an interior camera of the vehicle and a video stream from an exterior camera of the vehicle; determining, using one or more processors, whether a driving behavior risk type appears in one of the one or more video data streams; and in response to a driving behavior risk type appearing in the one of the one or more video data streams; indicating an incidence of a driver behavior risk type; determining a change in a driver risk based at least on a comparison of a number of incidences of driver risk types over a first period of time and a number of incidences of driver risk types over a second period of time, wherein the number of incidences of driver risk types over the second period of time includes the indicated incidence of the driver behavior risk type, wherein the first period of time consists of N units of time, wherein the second period of time consists of a most recent 1/N units of time, and wherein the first period of time includes the second period of time; and determining that the change in driver risk comprises an increase in risk when the number of incidences of driver risk types over the second period of time exceeds the number of incidences of driver risk types over the first period of time divided by N.

34. A computer program product for driver risk determination using machine vision, the computer program product being embodied in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium and comprising computer instructions for:
-
receiving one or more video data streams of a vehicle, the one or more video data streams comprising one or more of a video stream from an interior camera of the vehicle and a video stream from an exterior camera of the vehicle; determining, using machine vision, whether a driving behavior risk type appears in one of the one or more video data streams; and in response to a driving behavior risk type appearing in the one of the one or more video data streams; indicating an incidence of a driver behavior risk type; determining a change in a driver risk based at least on a comparison of a number of incidences of driver risk types over a first period of time and a number of incidences of driver risk types over a second period of time, wherein the number of incidences of driver risk types over the second period of time includes the indicated incidence of the driver behavior risk type, wherein the first period of time consists of N units of time, wherein the second period of time consists of a most recent 1/N units of time, and wherein the first period of time includes the second period of time; and determining that the change in driver risk comprises an increase in risk when the number of incidences of driver risk types over the second period of time exceeds the number of incidences of driver risk types over the first period of time divided by N.
