Driver drowsiness detection

Driver drowsiness detection is a car safety technology which helps prevent accidents caused by the driver getting drowsy. Various studies have suggested that around 20% of all road accidents are fatigue-related, up to 50% on certain roads.[1][2]

Some of the current systems learn driver patterns and can detect when a driver is becoming drowsy.

Technology

Various technologies can be used to try to detect driver drowsiness.[3]

Steering pattern monitoring

Primarily uses steering input from electric power steering system.

Vehicle position in lane monitoring

Uses lane monitoring camera.

Driver eye/face monitoring

Requires a camera watching the driver's face.[4]

Physiological measurement

Requires body sensors for measure parameters like brain activity, heart rate, skin conductance, muscle activity.
