Driver warning, especially for warning of driving errors or impending potential hazards, involves generating warning signal with magnitude dependent on degree of driver inattentiveness

摘要

The method involves warning the driver with an audible and/or visual and/or haptic indication, whereby a warning signal is generated whose magnitude is dependent on the degree of inattentiveness of the driver. A value representing degree of driver inattentiveness is derived from at least one operating parameter. An Independent claim is also included for a driver warning device implementing the above method.
