Sensorial system minimization to estimate the driver activity on the vehicle's pedals

This work presents an alternative sensorial system, including the minimal number of devices, to register the driver activity on the control pedals. As it is known, sensors directly related to pedals are difficult to implement and require specific calibration for each tested vehicle. On the contrary, the new proposal based on the measurement of regime engine, frontal inclination, linear acceleration and vehicle speed, is easily on-board implemented.
