EYE TRACKING BASED ON DRIVER FATIGUE MONITORING AND WARNING SYSTEM

Project Abstract / Summary : Driving is a dangerous activity that can have serious human and economic consequences. According to the statistics, unintended lane departure is the second most frequent type of single light-vehicle accidents. In many cases, the accidents can be attributed to degradation in driver performance, which is caused by such factors as fatigue, drowsiness, or inattention.This fact has motivated major research effort aimed at helping drivers and improving safety, particularly through the use of active systems that have the potential to prevent vehicle accidents. Several advanced assistance systems have been proposed over the last decade to improve vehicle lateral control. Some of them are based on the principle of mutual control between the driver and the automation system.The challenge in designing such human–machine interaction is how to combine the adaptability of humans with the precision of machines because manual control tasks are prone to human error, and fully automated tasks are subject to wide-ranging limitations.

Why did you choose to work on this project topic : TO PREVENT THE ACCIDENT.NOWADAYS MANY ACCIDENT ARE CAUSED BECAUSE OF DRIVERS DROWSINESS.This proposed system consists of various sensors like heart beat sensor,eye blink sensor, ultrasonic sensor, alarm, kind of devices, and all of them are integrated and connected to a Controller.
It is a real time work where a demo application has been made in which PIC16F877A is used and a controller board is made where all these devices get integrated and work accordingly.
The vehicle is controlled by this circuit. When the control unit find the abnormality siren will be on.
