Our unique global culture weaves modern Silicon Valley innovation and time-tested Japanese quality craftsmanship. We leverage these complementary strengths to amplify the capabilities of drivers, foster happiness, and elevate well-being.

TEAM
Our team builds the in-cabin monitoring system (IMS) which provides monitoring for driver and passenger inattentiveness, including visual distraction, and eye closure, which is becoming a standard safety feature in new vehicles. There are still many challenges to overcome though, including how to handle the monitoring of different drivers, passengers in different driving environments and how to handle anything that could obstruct the camera from recognizing facial features, such as eyewear or facial hair.
We aim to develop tools and environments to use for monitoring system capabilities, improve robustness, and expand use cases to make sure drivers maintain the appropriate level of focus depending on the situation and level of automation in the vehicle.
私たちのチームでは、ドライバーや同乗者の脇見や閉眼など、不安全な行動を監視する車室内モニタリングシステムを開発しています。車室内モニタリングシステムは近年では標準的な安全機能となりつつありますが、いまだに様々な課題が存在しいます。例えば、顔の個人差や走行環境による性能への影響、また眼鏡や髪の毛などによって顔の一部が隠れているようなケースにも対処する必要があります。
私たちはよりロバストでかつ様々なユースケースにも対応できるシステムの開発を目指しています。ドライバーが自動運転のレベルや走行状況に応じて適切な注意力を維持できているかをシステムが監視します。
