A DMS (Driver Monitoring System) is one of the most important safety features that assist in the monitoring functions and alert drivers when distraction or drowsiness is detected. The system is based in a DSMC (Driver Status Monitoring Camera) mounted in the vehicle's dash, which has a predefined set of operational requirements that must be fulfilled to guarantee the correct operation of the system. These conditions represent a trade space analysis challenge for each vehicle since both the DSMC and the underlying vehicle’s requirements must be satisfied. Relying upon the camera’s manufacturer evaluation for every iteration of the vehicle’s design has proven to be time-consuming, resources-intensive, and ineffective from the decision-making standpoint.
