Design and Verification of a Health-Monitoring Driver Assistance System

Abstract

Health-monitoring driver assistance systems support an independent and self-determined lifestyle enhancing the driver's safety. These systems are health-critical and need to guarantee correct behavior in emergency situations such as heart attacks. Furthermore, they have to be adjustable and extendable with respect to integrated functionalities to fit individual and changing needs. We present a concept for a mobile, serviceoriented driver assistance system with dynamic network behavior. Additionally, we introduce a verification approach to ensure correct behavior.

Sensor Technologies for Intelligent Transportation Systems

“…When the application detects a problem with the driver health (e.g., a heart attack), an emergency vehicle can be called automatically. Several works have been proposed in the literature that use ECG sensors or wireless bio sensing networks [ 85 , 86 , 87 ].…”
