New system to test driver fatigue

Hi-tech systems to monitor a car driver’s stress, fatigue and concentration levels are being tested by Jaguar Land Rover.

The company wants to see if a car can effectively read the brainwaves that indicate if a driver is beginning to daydream or feeling sleepy.

Jaguar Land Rover is also developing a seat in a Jaguar XJ which analyses the driver’s heart rate and breathing to indicate their health and stress levels.
