Abstract

The invention provides an occupant monitoring device for a vehicle. Even if the number of monitored people is increased, the increasing of required camera devices is inhibited. An occupant monitoringdevice (17) for a vehicle in which an occupant sits on a seat (3) provided in an occupant compartment (2) includes an imaging device (35) and a plurality of light projectors (36,37). The imaging device is configured to capture an image of a plurality of occupants sitting side-by-side in a vehicle width direction. The light projectors are provided in correspondence with a plurality of seat positions of the seat (3) and are configured to project light toward the seated occupants.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a vehicle occupant monitoring device. Background technique [0002] Vehicles such as cars basically have multiple occupants and are driven by a driver. [0003] Furthermore, Patent Document 1 discloses an occupant monitoring device. [0004] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-134038 [0005] However, the occupant monitoring device of Patent Document 1 monitors only the driver, and the photographing device is also installed so as to photograph only the driver. [0006] Therefore, for example, if not only the driver but also the co-pilot and other passengers are to be monitored, the occupant monitoring device requires imaging devices corresponding to the number of people to be monitored. [0007] In addition, the number of images that the occupant monitoring device must simultaneously process for monitoring increases in proportion to the number of imaging devices corresponding to the number of people...
