I don't think it's misleading at all. Is it a camera that's aimed at your face? It seems like it.

Nope, the laws require Advanced Driver Distraction Warning System and does not require cameras aimed at your face.

Also, cameras are receivers. Nothing happens when cameras are aimed at your face, it is only significant when you are interested with the received image and it actually nothing happens, it is processed on device to see if you are tired/distracted/asleep.

Here is the actual text: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg_del/2023/2590/oj/eng

They mention that cameras are required when testing the systems compliance but does not specify how these systems should work.
