Abstract

Vehicle advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS) techniques include, during an ADAS event where a controller at least partially takes control of the vehicle from a driver, detecting, using at least a driver monitoring system, a driver attentiveness level and a control urgency level indicative of how important it is for the driver to potentially retake control of the vehicle, determining, based on the detected driver attentiveness level and the detected control urgency level, a desired driver alert level for attempting to regain the driver's attention for the driver to potentially retake control of the vehicle from a plurality of predetermined driver alert levels each including at least one of an audio/visual/haptic (AVH) alert and a degree of a braking event, and commanding, according to the desired driver alert level, at least one of an AVH alert system and an anti-lock braking system (ABS).
