Detection of Driver Drowsiness by Calculating the Speed of Eye Blinking

Abstract: Many road accidents are caused by drowsiness of the driver. While there are methods to detect closed eyes, it is a non-trivial task to detect the gradual process of a driver becoming drowsy. We consider a simple real-time detection system for drowsiness merely based on the eye blinking rate derived from the eye aspect ratio. For the eye detection we use HOG and a linear SVM. If the speed of the eye blinking drops below some empirically determined threshold, the system triggers an alarm, hence preventing the dr… Show more

“…Driver distraction is detected by examining the driver’s attention to the driving process and alerting them in scenarios of attention loss [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ]. Drowsiness is detected by monitoring the facial expression of the driver based on computer-vision-based techniques [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ] or by measuring the physiological signals of the driver using an electrocardiogram (ECG) [ 12 ] and heart rate monitoring [ 13 ]. Most driver-behavior-monitoring methods have been designed to reduce crash-related accidents by addressing driver behavior.…”
