Problem statement
Driver Fatique is one of the significant factor in transportation. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), about 100,000 crashes are caused due to driver drowsiness each year. Effective and reliable driver drowsyness detection system is required.
Introduction
Different methods used for Drowsyness detection
Physiological measures -Electroencephalogram measures (EEG) -Non-intrusive ECG measurement -Breath rate and body temperature etc Ocular Dynamics -eye movement, eye closure, blink duration -PERCLOS: percentage of eyelid closure Lateral position of the vehicle. Use of sensors present in vehicles with navigation system and gyro sensors. Analysis of drivers body motion such as head motionusing accelerometer.
Basic Idea
Virtual reality driving environment simulator like as shown below is used to test the drowsiness detection system. Combination of different detection methods would be applied on driver.
Conclusion
Combination of different detection methods should be used for effective and reliabe drowsy driver detection. Chances of road accidents should be significanty reduced.
