Abstract

Techniques are described for cognitive analysis for directed control transfer for autonomous vehicles. In-vehicle sensors are used to collect cognitive state data for an individual within a vehicle which has an autonomous mode of operation. The cognitive state data includes infrared, facial, audio, or biosensor data. One or more processors analyze the cognitive state data collected from the individual to produce cognitive state information. The cognitive state information includes a subset or summary of cognitive state data, or an analysis of the cognitive state data. The individual is scored based on the cognitive state information to produce a cognitive scoring metric. A state of operation is determined for the vehicle. A condition of the individual is evaluated based on the cognitive scoring metric. Control is transferred between the vehicle and the individual based on the state of operation of the vehicle and the condition of the individual.
