Abstract

An occupant monitoring apparatus for a vehicle includes an imager and an occupant monitoring controller. The imager is configured to acquire an image of a driver who drives the vehicle. The occupant monitoring controller includes a behavior change detector and an alarm outputter. The behavior change detector is configured to perform a detection of a change in a behavior of the driver based on the image acquired by the imager. The alarm outputter is configured to output predetermined alarm information based on a result of the detection performed by the behavior change detector. The behavior change detector is configured to set detection duration time based on which the change in the behavior of the driver is detected, depending on a traveling speed of the vehicle and a type of a driving assistance control that is in execution of the vehicle.
