    摘要: A method of analyzing data based on the physiological orientation of a driver is provided. Data is descriptive of a driver's gaze-direction is processing and criteria defining a location of driver interest is determined. Based on the determined criteria, gaze-direction instances are classified as either on-location or off-location. The classified instances can then be used for further analysis, generally relating to times of elevated driver workload and not driver drowsiness. The classified instances are transformed into one of two binary values (e.g., 1 and 0) representative of whether the respective classified instance is on or off location. The uses of a binary value makes processing and analysis of the data faster and more efficient. Furthermore, classification of at least some of the off-location gaze direction instances can be inferred from the failure to meet the determined criteria for being classified as an on-location driver gaze direction instance.

    摘要: Method for analyzing ocular and/or head orientation characteristics of a subject. A detection and quantification of the position of a driver's head and/or eye movements are made relative to the environment. Tests of the data are made, and from the data, locations of experienced areas/objects-of-subject-interest are deduced. When a driver of a vehicle is the subject, these areas/objects-of-driver-interest may be inside or outside the vehicle, and may be constituted by (1) “things” such as audio controls, speedometers and other gauges, and (2) areas or positions such as “road ahead” and lane-change clearance space in adjacent lanes. In order to “standardize” the tracking data with respect to the vehicle of interest, the quantification of the position of the driver's head is normalized to the reference-base position thereby enabling deducement of location(s) where the driver has shown an interest based on sensed information regarding either, or both of (1) driver ocular orientation or (2) driver head orientation.

    摘要: A tractor truck configured for towing trailers of different air connection configuration. The truck has a first and a second tractor protection valve, each configured to be located on the tractor at a location remote from the other. Each tractor protection valve location is proximate a typical position at which a mating connection on a trailer will be located when hitched to the tractor. The truck also has a selector which is operator-transitionable between a first configuration in which the first tractor protection valve is activated to supply pressured air to an interconnected trailer and a second configuration in which the second tractor protection valve is activated to supply pressured air to a different interconnected trailer.
