driver fatigue may impose the risk of crashes and is a leading cause of death in transportation industry. this study aimed to detect driver cognitive fatigue based on changes in eeg frequency bands in non-professional drivers during a simulated driving task. in a descriptive-analytical study, 12 healthy male car drivers took part in a two hour driving session on a simulated monotonous road, whi...

sleep deprivation is a condition of not having enough sleep it can be either chronic or acute. a chronic sleep-restricted state can cause fatigue. fatigue is a subjective state related to sleep deprivation, the more someone is deprived of sleep the more likely that person is to be fatigued. several studies indicated that drowsiness/fatigue can affect steering performance and speed control. rese...

driver fatigue is one of the main causes of road accidents. this study aimed to estimate bus driver fatigue through performance measures in a virtual driving environment. the study was conducted on thirty professional male bus drivers participated in a two-hour drive session. the driver subjective fatigue was assessed by fatigue visual analogue scale (f-vas) on 10 min intervals. at the same tim...

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...

Driver fatigue is an ill-defined term in the literature. It has been broadly used to refer to a wide range of driver states, each with different causal mechanisms. Technologies currently exist which enable detection of driver fatigue and interventions that have the potential to dramatically reduce crash probability. The successful implementation of these technologies depends on the cause and ty...

Task performance and fatigue during driving may be influenced by psychological factors since individuals differ in temperament and anxiety status. Fatigue has also been shown to be associated with changes in brain wave activity. However, research on psychophysiological associations with driver fatigue is scarce. Understanding the psychological links could provide information for educating the p...

The paper deals with evaluation of reliability of a human operator in the MMS (Man-MachineSystem). In terms of controls the driver is a very universal and effective controller. In contrast to an unnatural controller the driver fatigue (both mental and physical) is reflected and it is reduces driver control abilities. The paper describes analyzing of driver trajectory and driver ́s state monitori...

Every year, many car accidents due to driver fatigue and distraction occur around the world and cause many casualties and injuries. Driver face monitoring systems is one of the main approaches for driver fatigue or distraction detection and accident prevention. Driver face monitoring systems capture the images from driver face and extract the symptoms of fatigue and distraction from eyes, mouth...

BACKGROUND Driver fatigue as a leading cause of death in the transportation industry can impair the driving performance in long-distance driving task. Studies on the links of driver subjective fatigue and the bus lateral position are still an exploratory issue that requires further investigation. This study aimed to determine the correlation between the driver subjective fatigue and the bus lat...

The rapid development of driver fatigue detection technology indicates important significance of traffic safety. The authors' main goals of this Letter are principally three: (i) A middleware architecture, defined as process unit (PU), which can communicate with personal electroencephalography (EEG) node (PEN) and cloud server (CS). The PU receives EEG signals from PEN, recognises the fatigue s...
