FEV Group: FEV develops AI-supported driver monitoring system CogniSafe

Share

Aachen – FEV, a leading global innovation driver for the mobility of tomorrow, presents CogniSafe, a state-of-the-art Driver Monitoring System (DMS) that significantly increases road safety. The system uses advanced technologies such as deep learning and computer vision to monitor driver conditions such as distraction, fatigue and inattention in real time and under even the most challenging conditions.

“CogniSafe is a holistic, innovative system that uses a variety of sensors and combines them with artificial intelligence (AI) to precisely analyze driver behavior and alertness”, said Dr. Thomas Hülshorst, Group Vice President Intelligent Mobility & Software at FEV. In (semi-) autonomous vehicles in particular, legal safety requirements are increasing, and the driver must be able to intervene in any situation. “With our latest development, we are actively reducing accidents caused by human error. At over 90 percent, these make up the majority of all accidents,” said Hülshorst.


CogniSafe uses a combination of functions which are unique on the market and coordinate with each other. It uses a network of cameras in the visible light and infrared spectrum to analyze driver behavior from different angles. On this basis, the system continuously tracks the driver's gaze, analyzes eye condition (percentage of eye closure, PERCLOS) and assesses head posture, providing further information on alertness, fatigue and drowsiness.

AI plays a pivotal role in the functions of FEV's latest development. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) are used to perform precise real-time analyses that dynamically adapt to different drivers and environmental conditions, such as different lighting conditions, and continuously improve.

“The solution is also very interesting for target groups such as fleet operators or insurance companies, who have a strong interest in safe driving practices”, said Hülshorst.

Germany’s pharmacies under pressure: Statistical Yearbook 2025 now available16.7.2025 12:00:23 CEST | Press release

(Berlin, Germany) – ABDA – Federal Union of German Associations of Pharmacists has released the Statistical Yearbook “German Pharmacies: Figures, Data, Facts 2025”. The publication offers a comprehensive overview of the latest trends in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors in Germany and beyond. It shows that the number of pharmacies has decreased again. At the end of 2024 there were 17.041 pharmacies in Germany, which is the lowest number since the end of the 1970s. One of the main reasons for the increasing number of pharmacy closures is the economic difficulties many pharmacies are facing. Since the pharmacy remuneration has not been elevated in the past 12 years, around 25 percent of German pharmacies have earnings below 75.000 Euros a year. Around 7 percent of German pharmacies made losses in 2024. Those and other relevant facts and figures are shown on more than 130 pages in a revamped design of the new Statistical Yearbook – with several features that make the content easie

FEV Group: Generative AI accelerates homologation: FEV simplifies country-specific type approval processes10.7.2025 11:23:00 CEST | Press release

Aachen – Vehicle development doesn’t end with technical readiness: The road to global market launches is only complete once homologation has been successfully achieved. The increasing complexity of national regulations poses growing challenges to OEMs and suppliers. FEV addresses these with an innovative, AI-based approach: The company-wide used ‘FEV GenAI Hub’ significantly simplifies and accelerates the analysis of regulatory requirements across different global markets, offering time and cost savings that can provide customers with a decisive competitive edge.
