Abstract
Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media may be configured to facilitate monitoring usage of a vehicle seat belt. An image capture device may have a field of view directed at a seat belt system of a vehicle. The image capture device may be configured to capture an image of the seat belt system. The image may be defined by image information. The image information may be obtained. Whether a seat belt of the seat belt system is or is not being used by a passenger may be determined based on an analysis of the image. An alert may be generated responsive to a determination that the seat belt is not being used by the passenger.
