MUMBAI, India, July 31 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411098850 A) filed by Mercedes-Benz Group AG on December 13, 2024, for System And Method For Estimating Facial Metrics Of A User Within A Vehicle.

Inventors include Manthan Sharma; Lellapalli Raghavendra Dakshinamurthy; Debanjan Paul; Souvik Sarkar; and Ashwini Poovaiah.

The application for the patent was published on July 24, 2026, under issue no. 30/2026.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system 102 and a method 400 for estimating facial metrics of a user within a vehicle. The method 400 includes receiving 402 a first coordinate, a second coordinate, and a third coordinate. Further, the method 400 includes determining 404 that a Field of View (FoV) of the second sensors are moved at a particular angle and determining 406 that the second coordinate is updated. Further, the method 400 includes transforming 408 the updated second coordinate to the third coordinate and modifying 410 the third coordinate. Further, the method 400 includes mapping 412 the modified third coordinate to the first coordinate and generating 414 a Three-Dimensional (3D) coordinate map. Further, the method 400 includes estimating 416 the facial metrics of the user. Therefore, the present disclosure reduces dependency on fixed sensor setups and improves the efficiency of determining user facial metrics in relation to the vehicle coordination.
