Abstract
System and methods for non-contact monitoring in vehicles are described. The systems and methods may use depth sensing cameras as part of the non-contact monitoring system. In some embodiments, depth data from at least one depth sensing device that has a field of view of at least part of the interior of the vehicle is received, wherein the depth data represents depth information as a function of position across the field of view. The depth data is then processed to obtain further information related to the occupant within the vehicle.
