A system for detecting improper use of a seatbelt on a seat in a work machine is disclosed. The system comprises: a plurality of detection devices disposed on a plurality of locations within a cab of the work machine; a detection strip/tape on a strategic location of the seatbelt and configured to be detected by the plurality of detection devices; a controller coupled in communication to the plurality of detection devices, the controller configured to: receive input signals from the plurality of detection devices, wherein at least one input signal is indicative of improper use of the seatbelt; and communicate control signals to at least one operational system associated with the work machine upon receipt of an at least one input signal indicative of improper use of the seatbelt.

A restraint verification platform may obtain video data video data of a passenger in a passenger seat. The restraint verification platform may analyze the video data using one or more machine learning models trained to detect passengers in passenger seats and passenger restraints of the passenger seats. The restraint verification platform may detect, using the one or more machine learning models and based on analyzing the video data, the passenger in the passenger seat and a passenger restraint of the passenger seat. The restraint verification platform may determine, based on analyzing the video data, that the passenger restraint is not properly securing the passenger. The restraint verification platform may perform an action based on determining that the passenger restraint is not properly securing the passenger.

Systems and methods for controlling operation of a vehicle are described herein. According to exemplary embodiments, an off-road vehicle includes a chassis, a seating area supported by the chassis, one or more sensors configured to acquire data to facilitate detecting whether one or more conditions are met for unrestricted operation of the off-road vehicle, and a control system. The control system is configured to acquire the data from the one or more sensors and restrict operation of the off-road vehicle responsive to determining that at least one of the one or more conditions is not met. The control system is configured to permit unrestricted operation of the off-road vehicle responsive to determining that the one or more conditions are met.
