Abstract
A biometric evaluation system for a vehicle includes a vision sensor configured to detect a biometric quality of a user. The biometric evaluation system also includes an operational system for the vehicle. At least one processor is in communication with the vision sensor. The processor is configured to execute a first classification algorithm that performs a first biometric validation based on the biometric quality to estimate a state of the user. The first classification algorithm requires a first service latency. In response to an outcome of the first biometric validation, the at least one processor is further configured to execute a second classification algorithm that performs a second biometric validation to confirm the state of the user. The second classification algorithm requires a second service latency greater than the first service latency. The processor is further configured to communicate a signal to modify operation of the vehicle.
