A new Toyota patent reveals a camera system designed to reduce driver distraction by automatically capturing roadside views and sending them directly to a user’s phone. The technology uses gaze-tracking to detect when a driver glances at their surroundings, triggering the camera to take photos without requiring manual operation. This innovation could address safety concerns linked to drivers taking pictures while behind the wheel. The system represents another step toward integrating advanced driver-assistance features with everyday smartphone use.
