Abstract

Traffic on road has increased considerably due to active economy, especially in developing countries. Road accidents have increased with the increasing traffic. Driver fatigue causes around 30% of road accidents. Drowsiness may be caused by restless driving, health issues, extended working hours, etc. Therefore, for road safety, drowsiness of the driver needs to be detected and alerted, and at extreme conditions the vehicle may be parked using assisted parking system. Technology is available through cost effective devices which are simple to be integrated with other systems. This paper proposes a system that uses camera and other devices to achieve the goal. The proposed system will analyze the changes that happen in the face of the driver and process them through a program to detect drowsiness. A prototype will be developed and tested on real time to understand the efficiency of the proposed concept.
