Transportable real-time capable digital twins
Autonomous driving enables new seating positions that pose safety risks that are not immediately apparent. Occupant monitoring systems to monitor posture, including feedback, are a promising safety measure to minimize the risk of injury. However, they are often expensive and poorly available.
In this project, a smartphone-based monitoring system is being developed that not only monitors occupant posture, but simultaneously performs a safety assessment based on highly complex simulation models and provides feedback in critical cases. This allows occupants to enjoy the benefits of autonomous driving without exposing themselves to new risks.
The project plans to:
The implementation of the transportable digital twin with visualization of the posture on the smartphone. Safe posture (left). Critical posture (right) with crushing of internal organs/damage to knee joints.
