Abstract

Techniques are described for providing a hands-off steering wheel detection warning. An example method can include a vehicle computer determining a real-time level of fatigue of a driver of an autonomous vehicle. The method can further include the vehicle computer determining an operating parameter associated with an environment in which the autonomous vehicle is traveling. The method can further include the vehicle computer determining a time interval for providing a hands-off steering wheel detection warning based at least in part on the real-time level of fatigue of the driver, and the operating parameter. The method can further include the vehicle computer identifying a final time interval for providing a hands-off steering wheel detection warning. The method can further include the vehicle computer outputting the hands-off steering wheel detection warning after the final time interval has elapsed.
