Driver monitoring system
A vision module ( 1 ) for monitoring a driver ( 20 ) of vehicle ( 3 ) is provided in the monitoring system ( 15 ). A first vision module support ( 4 ) and a second vision module support ( 5 ) is provided. The first vision module supports ( 4, 5 ) has at least two slots ( 6, 7, 8, 9 ) and the second vision module support has at least two slots ( 6 a, 7 a, 8 a, 9 a ,) for holding the vision module ( 4, 5 ) between the first and the second vision module support ( 4, 5 ) in a position defined by the slots ( 6, 7, 8, 9, 6 a, 7 a, 8 a, 9 a ).
1. A driver monitoring system having a vision module for monitoring a driver of a vehicle, comprising:
a first vision module support,
a second vision module support,
each of the first and second vision module supports having at least two slots for holding the vision module between the first and the second vision module support in a position of two or more different position options each defined by the slots, and wherein the two or more different position options are each different in at least one of a vertical angle and a horizontal angle.
2. The driver monitoring system according to claim 1 , wherein each of the slots of the first vision module support has at least one corresponding slot of the second vision module support.
3. The driver monitoring system according to claim 1 , further comprising a vision module guiding plate is attached to the vision module and where the vision module guiding plate is attached between one of the slots of the first vision module support and one corresponding slot of the second vision module support.
4. The driver monitoring system according to claim 1 , wherein the vision module is a camera.
5. A driver monitoring system having a vision module for monitoring a driver of a vehicle comprising:
a first vision module support,
a second vision module support,
each of the first and second vision module supports having at least two slots for holding the vision module between the first and the second vision module support in a position defined by the slots, and
further comprising the vision module is a first vision module and a second vision module, a first vision module support having the at least two slots, and a second vision module support having at least two slots for holding the second vision module between the first and the second vision module support in a position defined by the slots.
6. The driver monitoring system according to claim 5 , wherein each of the slots of the first vision module support has at least one corresponding slot of the second vision module support.
