Abstract

A driver monitoring system includes internal and external cameras attached to a vehicle. The cameras capture video of the vehicle's driver and the area surrounding the vehicle for later review by a coach or supervisor. To ensure privacy of people who appear in video, portions of the video may be processed to blur faces, license plates, and/or other features. Furthermore, access control mechanisms exist so that only users in specific roles have access to review certain types of video.
