Abstract

A method for detecting yawning of a driver in a passenger compartment of a vehicle. The method includes: capturing images of at least part of the face of the driver, analyzing the images captured by an image analysis module in order to detect an opening of the driver's mouth, recording sound in the passenger compartment of the vehicle using at least one microphone, detecting a yawn of the driver using a yawn detection module based on the results of the image analysis and the sound recording, an opening of the mouth potentially corresponding to a yawn being considered an actual yawn if it is done in combination with a sound level in the passenger compartment, during the opening of the mouth, below a determined sound threshold.

Abstract

A method for preparing a composite material that includes the steps of: (i) heat treating natural lignocellulosic fibers at a temperature of 130 to 320° C. for 2 minutes to 24 hours in an atmosphere oxygen-deficient in and in the presence of water vapor, and (ii) mixing the heat treated natural lignocellulosic fibers with at least one thermoplastic polymer in the molten state and whose melting point is less than or equal to 230° C. The method is useful for producing vehicle parts from a composite material having natural lignocellulosic fibers with reduced volatile organic compound odor emissions.
