 INTRODUCTION:

 There has been very large increase in road accident due to

drowsiness of car drivers. The driver lose his control when
he/she is about to sleep. The project can generate a model
that can prevent such accidents. In this model the eye
blink sensor is placed near the eyes on goggle to sense the
blink time of the eyes.
 Highway accidents are very prevalent and our design
would be help to this problem by monitoring the eye lid
movement of the driver. Using a sensor to compare an
open eye to a closed eye for aprolonged period will be the
basis of our project.
Literature Survey:

Methods for Detecting Drowsy Drivers

 There are various techniques that can be used to detect the
drowsiness of drivers. These techniques can be generally
divided into the following categories: sensing of
physiological characteristics, sensing of driver operation,
sensing of vehicle response, monitoring the response of
driver.
Monitoring Physiological Characteristics
 Among these methods, the techniques that are best, based on
accuracy are the ones based on human physiological
phenomena. This technique is implemented in two ways:
Measuring changes in physiological signals, such as brain
waves and eye blinking; and measuring physical changes
such as sagging posture, leaning of the driver’s head and the
open/closed states of the eyes .

ALGORITHM:
 STEP 1:START
 STEP 2:Declare port B as output port.
 STEP3: Declare port A as a input port.
 STEP4: Initialize ADC
 STEP5: Set GO/DONE bit of ADCON0 to start the
conversion.
 STEP6: Monitor GO/DONE bit continuously, check if
GO/DONE bit is 0 then analog to digital
conversion done.
 STEP7: Compare content of register ADRESH each
time.
 STEP8: If (ADRESH>300)
Till 0.5 sec glow GREEN LED if greater
then 0.5 sec then glow YELLOW LED and
turn on the BUZZER.
 STEP9: If (ADRESH>300)
Till 1.5 sec glow YELLOW LED and turn on
the BUZZER. If greater then1.5sec then glow
RED LED and turns on the VIBRATOR
MOTOR
 STEP10: Repeat steps 6,7,8 and 9 continuously.
APPLICATION:

 Alert and alarming system for vehicle drivers mainly

during night driving.
 For security guards during night shifts.
CONCLUSION:
 We have successfully designed VAPS (Vehicle accident
prevention system) circuit using
PIC18F4520(microcontroller),using a simple sensor which is
of minimal cost can save someone’s life, and this module will
be very helpful in modern technology
