Functional near‐infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) was used to assess hemodynamics‐interpreted prefrontal cortex activity on drivers responding to voluntary attention paradigm during simulated 7‐ hour long driving task. It has been found that the attention capability degrades with increasing driving time, while the hemodynamics at certain areas of the prefrontal cortex reveal an inverse correlation with driving time. This technology is potentially used for monitoring drivers' mental state for alerting driving fatigue.
