ABSTRACT:
An apparatus controls an on/off condition of an electrical device or devices mounted on an automobile, such as a car radio set, an air conditioner, a cigar lighter or the like. The face of a driver who is mounted on the vehicle is photographed by a television camera, which produces a video signal that is subject to a digital processing operation for storage in a frame memory. A video signal processing system essentially comprising CPU, RAM and ROM is operative, based upon the video data stored in the frame memory, to detect the pupil and mouth of the driver as well as their locations and configurations. A change in the location of the pupil as well as a change in the configuration of the pupil and the mouth is detected as a time sequence, and an on/off command signal is supplied to an electrical device in accordance with such changes.
