Instroduction

Drowsiness is a state of near sleep, where the person has a strong desire for sleep. It
has two distinct meanings, referring both to the usual state preceding falling asleep and the
chronic condition referring to being in that state independent of a daily rhythm [16].
Sleepiness can be dangerous when performing tasks that require constant concentration,
such as driving a vehicle. When a person is sufficiently fatigue while driving, they will
experience drowsiness and this leads to increase the factor of road accident.
Figure 1 shows the statistic of road accident in India
from the year 2018 to 2023 provided by IIROS (Indian
Institute of Road Safety). The numbers of vehicles involved
in road accident keep increasing each year. From Figure 1,
car and taxi type of vehicles shows about nearly 400,000
cases of road accident has been recorded. It keeps increasing
every year and by the year 2021 it shows the number of road

Objectives of this project

 To suggest ways to detect fatigue and drowsiness while driving.


 The project focuses on these objectives, which are:
 To study on eyes and mouth from the video images of participants in
the experiment of driving simulation conducted by MIROS that can
be used as an indicator of fatigue and drowsiness.
 To investigate the physical changes of fatigue and drowsiness.
 To develop a system that use eyes closure and yawning as a way to
detect fatigue and drowsiness.
Scope of Study

• In this project, the author will focus on these following procedures:

• Basic concept of drowsiness detection system


• Familiarize with the signs of drowsiness
• Determine the drowsiness from these parameters
• Eye blink
• Area of the pupils detect at eyes
• Yawning
• Data collection and measurement.
• Integration of the methods chosen.
• Coding development and testing.
• Complete testing and improvement.

ALGORITHM

EAR Detection
• Time-of-Day Analysis:
By analyzing the time of day, the system can infer patterns in driver behavior, such as increased drowsiness during late-night or early-morning hours, allowing for adaptive alertness
thresholds.
• Duration of Alertness:
Monitoring the duration of continuous driving without breaks helps identify fatigue buildup, triggering alerts when prolonged periods of driving occur without rest.
• Blink Frequency and Duration:
Tracking the frequency and duration of eye blinks over time provides insights into changes in alertness levels, with longer or more frequent blinks indicating potential drowsiness.
• Reaction Time Analysis:
Monitoring the driver's reaction time to external stimuli over time helps detect delays, which could be indicative of decreased alertness or fatigue.
• Session Logging and Analysis:
Recording timestamps of significant events such as alerts, driver interventions, or environmental changes allows for post-session analysis to identify patterns and trends in
drowsiness occurrence.
By integrating time-related functions into the drowsiness detection system, it becomes more robust and capable of providing timely alerts and interventions to ensure driver safety on
the road.
