Abstract

Systems and methods for driver authentication through embedded sensing are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system for driver authentication through embedded sensing may include a vehicle that may include a plurality of sensors, each sensor sensing at least one of a characteristic of a vehicle occupant and a movement of the vehicle occupant; at least one computer processor executing a computer application, the computer application receiving and processing data from the plurality of sensors; and a communication interface. The system may further include a back-end server in communication with the vehicle communication interface and a plurality of locations in communication with the back-end server. In one embodiment, the characteristic may be a biometric characteristic of the vehicle occupant.
