Without enough sleep, a person, especially a driver, is more likely to nod off and cause a collision. To prevent accidents on the road, the current study seeks to develop a system that can identify drowsy drivers. For that system, it will be necessary to process images from a camera that will be trained on the driver. It will analyze the facial changes that take place in this process, run them through a computer to identify drowsiness, and then alarm the driver if it is detected.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
