Accurately assessing a driver’s state requires more than monitoring where they are looking. Hand movements, posture and interactions add important context, revealing signs of distraction, cognitive load and what a driver intends to do next. Combined with eye tracking, these behavioral cues can help vehicles anticipate driver actions, adapt interfaces and respond more appropriately to what is happening inside the cabin. Neonode’s MultiSensing® platform brings these signals together, moving driver monitoring beyond observation and towards more intelligent, intuitive interaction between people and vehicles: https://hubs.ly/Q04zqYcX0

As vehicles move toward centralized, software-defined architectures, the industry is relying more on AI to deliver safety and comfort features instead of adding extra sensors or hardware. Neonode’s MultiSensing® software uses modular neural networks and monocular depth estimation to extract rich 3D insights from a single video stream, enabling features such as driver attention monitoring, occupant positioning, seatbelt checks and more from one standard in-cabin camera, even long after production. The future of in-cabin sensing isn’t more sensors; it’s intelligent software that sees further with less. Learn more: https://hubs.ly/Q04yqb-Y0

Euro NCAP’s 2028 protocols will put truck drivers more firmly in focus, raising expectations for the role of driver monitoring in commercial vehicles. Meeting these expectations requires a DMS that goes beyond basic distraction and fatigue detection to provide a deeper and more reliable understanding of driver state. For truck manufacturers, selecting a DMS that can meet these evolving requirements will be central to achieving strong safety performance. Learn more: https://hubs.ly/Q04wv3Hy0

A truck is not simply a larger passenger car, and its driver monitoring system shouldn’t act as such. Different cabin geometries, camera positions, driving behaviors and long hours behind the wheel create challenges that passenger-car DMS was not designed to solve. In our latest article, we look at what makes driver monitoring for commercial vehicles different, why context matters when interpreting driver behavior, and how flexible DMS technology can help manufacturers support a wide range of vehicle configurations without compromising performance or driver trust.

What can a driver’s hands tell us about driver distraction, intent and readiness? Quite a lot. In a new interview from InCabin, Agnes Jernström, Senior Software Engineer at Neonode, explores how hand-tracking can add another layer of intelligence to in-cabin monitoring, from detecting distraction and understanding driver state to enabling smarter, more intuitive HMI experiences. A big thank you to InCabin for the interview. Read it in full to learn how Neonode’s MultiSensing® platform is helping vehicles better understand the people inside them:

Hand-Tracking: The Future Of Intelligent In-Cabin Monitoring Neonode explains how hand-tracking can improve intelligent in-cabin monitoring, driver intent prediction and the next generation of vehicle HMI.

Join us at IAA Transportation 2026 in Hannover, Germany, from September 15–20 to explore the future of commercial vehicle technology. Visit Hall 11, Booth A25 to step inside our live demo vehicle and experience how Neonode’s MultiSensing® software delivers real-time driver monitoring and in-cabin sensing from a single camera. We will also be showcasing our signature digital mirror augmentation, which eliminates critical blind spots, simplifies trailer reversing and prevents screen-induced motion sickness by dynamically adjusting the screen view to match the driver's exact line of sight. We hope to see you there. https://hubs.ly/Q04rMP2c0

As vehicles become increasingly automated, one of the biggest safety challenges is ensuring drivers are ready to take back control when it matters most. True driver readiness requires more than monitoring the driver's gaze. It demands a comprehensive understanding of driver behavior, attention and intent. In our latest white paper, we explore how multi-signal analysis can improve takeover safety and enhance the performance of Level 2 and Level 3 automated driving system.

Meet us tomorrow at the Women in Automotive Technology (WAT) networking breakfast at InCabin USA. We are looking forward to the opportunity to connect with talented professionals from across the automotive industry and discuss the global technologies, perspectives and innovations shaping the future of mobility. If you are attending InCabin USA and work in engineering, we would love to meet you at Huntington Place, Riverfront Salon West.

This week we are attending InCabin USA in Detroit, together with other automotive leaders, to discuss the future of in-cabin sensing, driver monitoring and vehicle safety. If you are attending, don't miss Agnes Jernström's presentation tomorrow at 16:15 where she will explore the growing importance of driver readiness in semi-autonomous driving systems and how advanced sensing technologies can help OEMs meet evolving safety and regulatory requirements.
