Driver fatigue is one of the important factors that cause traffic accidents, and the ever-increasing number due to diminished driver’s vigilance level has become a problem of serious concern to society. Drivers with a diminished vigilance level suffer from a marked decline in their abilities of perception, recognition, and vehicle control, and therefore pose serious danger to their own life and...

According to the characteristics that fatigue study cannot reveal fatigue mechanism and nonlinear influence factors of vehicle driving closed-loop system defects, this paper proposes a driver model inversion method for studying the driver's fatigue diagnosis. Furthermore, the new methods is divided into two steps: 1. using the forecast looks neural network model to build the driver vehicle road...

Driver fatigue, recognized as a major safety problem in the transportation industry, is strongly influenced by employee work and sleep schedules. The work and rest hours of truck drivers have been regulated by Hours-of-Service (HoS) rules in the U.S since 1938, but it has become increasingly apparent these rules are inconsistent with the science of sleep and fatigue. We present and assess an in...

The article presents a review on vision-based solutions for driver assistance. These solutions support the driver to keep safe travel conditions. They use diverse sensing modalities for the recognition of the environment around the vehicle. Upon detection a critical safety situation they supply the driver with the warning. Four assistance systems have been addressed: TSR Traffic Sign Recognitio...

This project proposes to develop a driver simulator, which takes into account information about the user state of mind (level of attention, fatigue state, stress state). The user’s state of mind analysis is based on video data and physiological signals. Facial movements such as eyes blinking, yawning, head rotations... are detected on video data: they are used in order to evaluate the fatigue a...

The effectiveness of EEG alpha spindles, defined by short narrowband bursts in the alpha band, as an objective measure for assessing driver fatigue under real driving conditions was examined using an algorithm for the identification of alpha spindles. The method is applied to data recorded under real traffic conditions and compared with the performance of the traditional EEG fatigue measure alp...

The main idea behind this project is to develop a system which can detect drowsiness of the driver and giving an indication in the form of alarm. Since a large number of road accidents occur due to the driver drowsiness, here we are proposing a new transportation system which will reduce the accidents. This system will monitor the driver’s eyes using camera and face detection which is very impo...

This paper describes method for detecting the early signs of fatigue in train drivers. As soon as the train driver is falling in symptoms of fatigue immediate message will be transfer to the control room indicating the status of the drivers. In addition of the advance technology of heart rate sensors is also added in the system for correct detection of status of driver if in either case driver ...

BACKGROUND Driver fatigue is one of the major implications in transportation safety and accounted for up to 40% of road accidents. This study aimed to analyze the EEG alpha power changes in partially sleep-deprived drivers while performing a simulated driving task. METHODS Twelve healthy male car drivers participated in an overnight study. Continuous EEG and EOG records were taken during driv...

The aim of our project is to provide a real time non-intrusive driver drowsiness detection to prevent the rapidly growing accidents caused by sleepy or drunk driver. We are going to merge the 2 requirements for safe driving in a single equipment. The car does not function unless the two conditions of safe driving are satisfied. Bio signals, such as brain waves, pulsation waves, and heart beat a...
