An industry-first in India’s commercial vehicle segment, the Driver State Monitoring system aims to avoid dangerous situations of drivers falling asleep or otherwise being distracted at the wheel. The BharatBenz DSM system employs state-of-the-art artificial intelligence and computer vision technologies to identify facial patterns including eyes, face, head gaze, and other natural cues. Based on this, it differentiates between attentive drivers and others using acoustic and visual alert.
