Automated driving refers to the capability of a vehicle to handle a set of driving tasks normally performed by a human. This set of tasks ranges from individual manoeuvers such as emergency braking or obstacle avoidance in safety and driver assistance applications to handling all driving tasks that can be managed by a human driver in fully automated driving. Increasing levels of automation require the automated driving system to be aware of the cognitive and physiological state of the driver, for instance when handing over control to the driver is required, or when the driver wishes to take over control from the system. Further situations include medical emergencies, during which a driver may become incapacitated and unable to control the vehicle, requiring immediate action by the system.
