A wearable-glasses-based drowsiness-fatigue-detection system for improving road safety

Abstract

This paper proposes a drowsiness-fatigue-detection (DFD) system for improving road safety, which consists of a wearable smart glasses, an in-vehicle infotainment system (a vehicular telematics device), an automotive diagnostic bridge, and a cloud-based platform, etc. The proposed DFD system can real-time detect driver's state for drowsiness or fatigue. When detecting drowsiness or fatigue situation occurrence, thus the rear lights of the vehicle will automatically be flickered and message will be sent to the cloud-based platform, concurrently. Hence, the proposed system can effectively achieve the purpose of road safety improvement.
