The human eye has various colors - black, gold, and blue. In fact, strictly speaking, the color of the eye is the color of the iris that controls the amount of light. Each person has different colors and patterns of the iris. Even both eyes of a person are different, so the probability of error is only one in a million if the system scans one eye, and the chance plunges to one in a trillion if both eyes are used. Gentex, a U.S. auto parts manufacturer, has introduced a system that recognizes the driver's iris using the infrared sensor in a rearview mirror.
Hyundai Motor Group is also developing iris recognition technology. The Driver State Warning System (DSW) developed by Hyundai Mobis would be one example. DSW is a feature that delivers a warning when the driver is not focusing on driving, and it takes a step forward from the current system that only recognizes the direction of the face or when the eyes are closed, providing a safer driving environment. It is not just looking at the movements of the eyelids, but also observing the activity of the pupils inside the iris to increase the accuracy of the detection of careless driving. This technology will be first implemented in medium and large-sized commercial vehicles, which will be introduced in 2021.
