| Summary: | Every year, countless people lose their lives in serious car accidents, and drowsy driving is a major cause. However, because the earliest indications of exhaustion can be identified before a dangerous scenario develops, the detection and signaling of driver drowsiness are ongoing research topics. This study presents a real-time detection system designed to detect driver’s sleep and deliver timely warnings. The mechanism employs an eye monitoring system that uses eye feature points to detect whether a driver’s eye is tired and delivers an alert if the driver is drowsy. The proposed work recognizes the driver’s face by collecting facial landmarks and gives warning to the driver to avoid crashes by performing adaptive thresholding and drowsiness diagnoses based on Eye Characteristic Ratio. The empirical results show that using random forest classifier, decision tree classifier, KNN classifier, and multinomial classifier, the proposed model achieved 90.48%, 89.44%, 88.63%, and 84.32% accuracy, respectively. |
