Abstract:
On a vehicle traveling on a downward slope, a driver's intentional checking is erroneously determined to be distracted driving, thus generating an alert. An apparatus includes an image data obtaining unit that obtains image data about a driver, a distracted driving determiner that determines distracted driving based on a face orientation and gaze of the driver captured in the image data and a determination criterion, a traveling state obtaining unit that obtains traveling state data about the vehicle, a traveling state determiner that determines whether the vehicle is traveling downward based on the traveling state data, and a criterion changer that changes, when the vehicle is determined to be traveling downward, the determination criterion for an upward face orientation and the gaze of the driver from a value used when the vehicle is determined not to be traveling downward.

Claim (Index 2):
The distracted driving determination apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the determination criterion includes a position and a dimension of a non-distracted driving area in which a gaze direction of the driver is allowed to reside without causing detection of distracted driving, and an allowable residence duration for which the gaze direction of the driver is allowed to reside within a distracted driving area outside the non-distracted driving area without causing detection of distracted driving.
