FEV, a Germany-based engineering services provider for the automotive industry, has introduced CogniSafe, an advanced AI-supported driver monitoring system.
The CogniSafe is designed to enhance road safety by detecting driver inattention, fatigue, and distraction in real-time, the company claims.
This new system utilises deep learning and computer vision technologies to ensure driver alertness under various conditions.
CogniSafe features a network of cameras operating in both visible light and infrared spectrums, enabling comprehensive analysis of the driver’s behaviour from multiple angles.
The system is equipped to monitor the driver’s gaze, evaluates eye conditions such as the percentage of eye closure (PERCLOS), and assesses head posture to determine levels of alertness and fatigue.
FEV Intelligent Mobility & Software group vice-president Dr Thomas Hülshorst said: “CogniSafe is a holistic, innovative system that uses a variety of sensors and combines them with artificial intelligence (AI) to precisely analyse driver behaviour and alertness.

By GlobalData“With our latest development, we are actively reducing accidents caused by human error. At over 90%s, these make up the majority of all accidents.”
Moreover, CogniSafe is adept at recognising behaviours that may compromise safety, like texting or drinking while driving.
Upon detection, it alerts the driver through visual and acoustic signals and can trigger safety measures, including emergency braking or lane assistance activation.
The system’s integration capabilities extend to existing driver assistance systems and cloud-based infrastructures, offering modular expansion to accommodate future technologies and regulations.
