A Brave new world : vehicle biometrics. — Munich : Allianz , cop. 2017

Sumario: Vehicle biometrics is a way of blending biology and technology. It can be geared towards a person (in the case of vehicle biometrics, the driver) for better security, a more comfortable ride and one day possibly, helping save lives. Insurance could become a more fluid concept. For example, a fleet van with iris recognition could let the insurance company know if the driver changes and adjust premiums accordingly based on the new information. For fleet drivers, they could have their own policy based on what different vehicles they drive regularly, instead of being insured on one van, for example. The biometrics comes in to help distinguish which driver at a firm can drive which vehicle.There are many developments for vehicle biometrics on the horizon. Cars could track eye movement and sense when the driver is getting tired and alert them. Even more sci-fi, the car could drive itself to safety. Ford is currently exploring this area with Flex. They are also looking to add CO2 sensors in vehicles to detect dangerous levels before it¿s too late
