Claim 10:
11. An article of manufacture for training a learning algorithm for a driver assistance system for a vehicle, the article comprising:
a non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored therein instructions executable by one or more processors to:
record, via first sensors, steering torque data for the vehicle;
record, via second sensors, distance data associated with a driver's hands and a steering wheel;
detect hands-off conditions for associated time intervals, based on at least the recorded distance data and one or more of (i) steering wheel movement data, (ii) data describing the course of the roadway, (iii) lane detection data, and/or (iv) vehicle movement data;
link the detected hands-off conditions with the recorded steering torque data for the time intervals; and
compile the linked hands-off conditions and generating labeled steering torque data, configured to be processed as training data for detecting future hands-off conditions in the learning algorithm for the vehicle.
