Monitoring Drivers + Autonomous Vehicles

If you’re an autonomous vehicle manufacturer, how do you monitor drivers? Well, you could put a camera in the rear view camera

What would this camera monitor? Driver’s eyes. Eyes open? Eyes closed? Looking down? Sunglasses? Did the driver’s head turn to look somewhere?

How was this camera made public? A hacker discovered it

The data privacy questions for business, insurance, privacy advocates, legislative work, regulatory work:

  • can a company keep this data?
  • for how long?
  • does it have to be disclosed to the driver? to law enforcement in an accident? to insurance companies?
  • what happens if the data is hacked?
