PRIMARY PREVIEW REGION AND GAZE BASED DRIVER DISTRACTION DETECTION

A computer-implemented method of detecting distracted driving comprises: determining, by one or more processors, a primary preview region (PPR) in a representation of an environment; determining, by the one or more processors, a gaze point for a driver based on a sequence of images of the driver; determining, by the one or more processors, that the gaze point is outside of the PPR; based on the determined gaze point being outside of the PPR, decreasing, by the one or more processors, an attention level for the PPR; based on the attention level for the PPR, generating, by the one or more processors, an alert.
