Driver monitoring systems (DMS) are crucial to driver safety. Traditional DMS systems use RGBIR sensors and AI models to detect driver states in real-time. However, these systems are sensitive to image illumination, contrast, and dynamic range, and could also raise privacy and security concerns due to the use of in-cabin cameras. In this session, we present an event-based DMS with dynamic vision sensors (DVS) to overcome the limitations above. We will discuss the properties of DVS and showcase how we integrate DVS into edge device along with developed event-based AI models, achieving robust DVS DMS with high privacy.
