In today’s world, apps and technology in every industry is updating. Today if we see one of the fastest growing industry is the automobile industry.
From many years, particularly this field is developing various technology that suits particular generation. Today due to the rapid growth of population it has become necessary for this industry to involve themselves in new inventions.
We all know about petrol and diesel vehicles. Today another eco-friendly vehicle making sound is the EV (Electric vehicle). Today these EVs are gaining importance all over the world. In addition to these vehicles one more technology is making sound and it is Biometric seats.
We all know about biometrics used in various places for facial regonistion, fingure print etc. Now stepping forward automobile industry has introduced biometric seats.
Biometric seats are designed to monitor stress level of the driver while driving the vehicle. Biometric seats monitor the driver’s heart rate and body temperature with the help of sensors.
Biometric sensors come in two broad categories: behavioural and physiological.
A behavioural sensor could monitor whether you tend to sit still or fidget. It could detect your driving style by tracking the ways your legs move to brake and accelerate. A physiological sensor, on the other hand, might detect your butt print.
These sensors are installed in the steering wheel and seat belts, which triggers automatic speed limit, audio warning, and ability to dial the emergency services.
Biometric seat capabilities improve a driver’s personal experience in a vehicle. For example, a 2022 Toyota Tundra interior can meet a driver’s unique needs with a biometric seat. This technology collects data from a driver’s face and palms. The information measures anxiety levels and advises the driver when to take a break. This helps avoid fatigue and enhances a driver’s performance on the road.
Biometric Seat works through a series of highly reactive sensors which are able to monitor the driver’s breathing rate, heart rate and body temperature. By using this information, the car can send out warnings if it calculates that the driver is too stressed or tense to be behind the wheel. These sensors are located in the steering wheel and seat belts, which triggers automatic speed limit, audio warning, and ability to dial the emergency services.
Biometric seats will likely have behavioural and physiological sensors that triangulate their findings via artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms.
Biometric seats could anticipate drowsiness by monitoring body heat loss. In conjunction with cameras that monitor blinking rate and facial expressions, your vehicle would inform you to stop or even take active measures to keep you awake, such as changing the climate settings. If you were unresponsive, your vehicle might bring you to a safe stop.
Besides safety, security is one clear benefit of biometric seats. Identifying a driver could not only eliminate the need for keys but also make it more convenient to rent a car.
