Autoliv the global leader in automotive safety systems will showcase Seeing Machines camera-based driver monitoring technology in its Learning Intelligent Vehicle (LIV) 2.0, the next phase of human/machine interaction at CES 2018 in Las Vegas.
Seeing Machines, a leader in computer vision technologies that enable machines to see, understand and assist people has delivered its camera-based Driver Monitoring System (DMS) technology to Autoliv.
This announcement follows to the recently announced collaboration between Seeing Machines and Autoliv, wherein the companies have worked together to integrate Seeing Machines' market leading DMS technology, based on its FOVIO driver monitoring platform, into Autoliv's LIV2.0 vehicles for enhancing Autoliv's existing ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) offering. This will include awareness of the driver attention state and other key safety indicators, such as distraction or drowsiness.
The technology generates highly robust and real-time head, face, eyelid and precision eye gaze tracking signals that allows for reliable understanding of driver state, thus enabling Autoliv's development of highly autonomous driving functions, with safe hands-off-wheel operation. As part of the collaboration, Autoliv will serve as a Tier 1 integrator of Seeing Machines technology, and overall system supplier to OEMs.
Commenting on the announcement Mike McAuliffe , CEO, Seeing Machines said: "We are delighted to see the Seeing Machines collaboration with Autoliv progress to this next phase. With integration into the LIV2.0 demonstration vehicles, Seeing Machines' world class DMS technology can now be demonstrated as a key feature of Autoliv's impressive line-up of ADAS and safety features."
Johan Lofvenholm, president, Autoliv Electronics commented: "Autoliv remains committed to bringing the most advanced driver monitoring systems in the world to the market, and in turn, saving more lives through the reduction of distracted driving accidents. With DMS technology from Seeing Machines, Autoliv continues to develop a strong foundation toward the goal of safer drivers and safer roads."
