An Approach to Driver Activity Recognition in Real Vehicles Using Wrist-Worn Sensors

Abstract

As an easy-to-use approach to safe driving support, we have developed driver status monitoring systems using wrist-worn accelerometers. In our previous research, we proposed an onboard measurement system to collect driving data in real vehicles and conducted measurement experiments. In this paper, we discuss the results of the experiments and our approach to estimating driver activities from the wrist acceleration data collected in real vehicles.
