Abstract
A driver condition detection device for a vehicle includes: a physical information acquisition unit that acquires physical information of a driver; a standard setting unit that sets, as a standard range, the physical information in a case where the driver is in an operable state for driving the vehicle; a correspondence relationship accumulation unit that accumulates a correspondence relationship between a deviation of the physical information from the standard range and a time interval to return to the standard range; a recovery time estimation unit that estimates a recovery time to return to the standard range from the physical information acquired by the physical information acquisition unit, based on the correspondence relationship; and a determination unit that determines that the driver is in an inoperable state for driving the vehicle when the recovery time is more than a predetermined allowance time.
