TY - JOUR PY - 2005// TI - Estimation of driver fatigue by pressure distribution on seat in long term driving JO - Review of automotive engineering A1 - Furugori, S A1 - Yoshizawa, N.

The feasibility of an estimation method was examined, which estimated fatigue by determining whether the changes of the load center position (LCP) were greater than those in ordinary driving. Three continuous simulated driving tasks (Sessions 1-3) that lasted a duration of 2 hours were conducted twice for each of 12 subjects. Driving fatigue in Sessions 2 and 3 was estimated by comparing the change of the LCP with those in the "ordinary driving" of Session 1. The results illustrated the potential of the method.
