Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022033891A1] Disclosed is a method for determining the posture of a vehicle driver, the vehicle comprising a camera suitable for generating a sequence of images of the driver's position within the vehicle and an electronic control unit comprising a memory zone in which a plurality of image processing masks is stored, each mask being associated with a predetermined posture of the driver in his or her seat, the method comprising generating (E1) a sequence of images of the driver's position, by means of the camera, and sending the sequence of images to the electronic control unit, calculating (E2), by the electronic control unit, for each mask of the plurality of masks, the convolution integral of the mask at at least one image of the sequence of images received from the camera in order to obtain a correlation coefficient, and determining (E3) the posture of the driver from the mask having the highest correlation coefficient.
