A method of determining the perceptual load of a human brain. The perceptual load is induced by a predetermined task carried out by the human. The method includes the steps of: measuring with a functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) sensor device a metabolic activity of the human brain while the task is carried out and determining the perceptual load as a function of a measured change in metabolic activity. The invention further relates to a method of determining the level of stimulus perception corresponding systems.

System and method for determining the perceptual load and the level of stimulus perception of a human brain

A control device for a vehicle for determining perceptual load of a visual and dynamic driving scene, the control device being configured to: receive an image sequence representing the driving scene, extract a set of scene features from the image sequence, the set of scene features representing static and/or dynamic information of the driving scene, calculate a time-aggregated representation of the image sequence based on the extracted set of scene features, calculate an attention map of the driving scene by attentional pooling of the time-aggregated representation of the image sequence, and determine the perceptual load of the driving scene based on the attention map. The invention further relates to a corresponding method.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a control system, system and method for controlling a transition between a first driving mode and a second driving mode of a vehicle. The present disclosure relates to receiving image data of an occupant of the vehicle; quantifying one or more characteristics of the occupant's gaze based at least in part on the received image data, the one or more characteristics being indicative of the occupant's attention to a non-driving task; determining a transition profile for transitioning between the first driving mode and the second driving mode based at least in part on the one or more characteristics of the occupant's gaze; and generating and outputting a control signal to transition from the first driving mode to the second driving mode, the control signal comprising instructions for controlling one or more vehicle systems in accordance with the determined transition profile.

Vehicle control system

The invention relates to a control device () for a vehicle for determining the perceptual load of a visual and dynamic driving scene. The control device is configured to: &#x22c5;receive a sensor output () of a sensor (), the sensor () sensing the visual driving scene, &#x22c5;extract a set of scene features () from the sensor output (), the set of scene features () representing static and/or dynamic information of the visual driving scene, &#x22c5;determine the perceptual load () of the set of extracted scene features () based on a predetermined load model (), the load model () being predetermined based on reference video scenes each being labelled with a load value, &#x22c5;map the perceptual load to the sensed driving and &#x22c5;determine a spatial and temporal intensity distribution of the perceptual load across the sensed driving scene. The invention further relates to a vehicle, a system and a method.
