Ear sensor monitors driver alertness

Fujitsu’s FEELythm is a wearable sensor that tracks pulse to detect drowsiness in drivers.  An algorithm monitors vital signs via a sensor attached to the earlobe, gauges drowsiness, and notifies the driver.  When used commercially,  it notifies the driver’s fleet manager. It can connect to onboard devices and link to fleet management systems for real time monitoring.

The company claims to be able to predict  commercial driving dangers before they occur by creating a hazard map for fleet managers based on sensor data indicating fatigue, stress, and tension.
