본 논문은 주행 중의 졸음방지를 목적으로 하는 각성시스템의 평가에 관한 연구이다. 졸음운전을 방지하는 데에는 각성도의 저하상태를 높은 정확도로 검출하는 기술과 그것을 해소하는 기술이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 졸음운저자를 위해서 졸음각성시스템을 향상시켰다. 개발된 각성시스템의 평가를 위해서 졸음을 유도하는 단조로운 행위를 수행하면서 뇌파, 심전도, 안전도와 같은 생체신호를 측정하였다. 피험자가 졸음상태에 있을 때에 산소, 향, 여러 가지 색 자극을 제시함으로써 각성효과를 평가하였다. 졸음의 해소에 효율적인 일정한 양의 산소와 멘톨 성분이 함유된 향을 동시에 각성자극으로 제시하였을 때와, 노란색의 색 자극을 주었을 때 가장 각성에 효과적임을 확인할 수 있었다.

운전자의 주의력 감쇠는 교통사고 요인에 있어서 큰 비중을 차지한다. 주의력 감쇠는 무선 통화, 기기 조작, 졸음으로 나타날 수 있는데 자동차 대형사고의 대부분은 졸음운전으로 인하여 일어나며, 졸음운전 시에는 운전자의 운전조작 및 방어 조작 능력이 현저하게 저하한다. 본 시스템은 카메라로부터 실시간으로 영상 데이터를 입력 받아 처리하여 운전자의 졸음 상태를 인식하는 시스템으로 운전자에게 졸음방지 기능을 제공한다. Haar-Like Feature cascade classifier 방법을 사용하여 얼굴 및 눈 영역 검출을 하였고 Open Eye, Closed Eye가 학습된 MLP(Multi-Layer Perceptron)를 이용해 눈 깜박임을 인식하여 PERCLOS(Percentage of Eye Close)방법으로 졸음을 판단하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 방법의 인식률의 정확도를 검증하기 위해 인식률 테스트를 하였다.

군에서의 경계근무는 방위 임무에 있어 아무리 강조해도 부족할 정도로 중요한 업무이지만, 인간이라는 한계 때문에 어쩔수 없이 소홀히 되어지는 부분이 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 뇌파를 사용하여 경계병의 졸음을 검출하는 시스템을 제안하였다. 이 시스템은 IoT를 기반으로 설계되었으며, 주요기능으로는 뇌파 측정 기능, 신원 확인 기능, 졸음 판별 표시 기능, 실시간 뇌파 전송 기능 등이 있다. 현재 각 기능에 대한 구체적인 방법들을 구현하여 성능 분석중에 있으며 향후 이 시스템이 완전히 개발 된다면 국방 경계태세 강화 등 다른 여러 분야에서 유용하게 쓰일 것으로 기대된다.

This paper proposes the way to prevent drowsy driving by recognizing drivers eyes and yawn using a front camera. The method uses the Viola-Jones algorithm to detect eyes area and mouth area from detection face region. In the eyes area, it uses the Hough transform to recognize eye circle in order to distinguish drowsy driving. In the mouth area, it determines whether for the driver to yawn through a sub-window testing by applying a HSV-filter and detecting skin color of the tongue. The test result shows that the recognition rate of yawn reaches up to 90%. It is expected that the method introduced in this paper might contribute to reduce the number of drowsy driving accidents.

In this paper, we introduce the implementation of driver fatigue monitering system and its result. Input video device is selected commercially available web-cam camera. Haar transform is used to face detection and adopted illumination normalization is used for arbitrary illumination conditions. Facial image through illumination normalization is extracted using Haar face features easily. Eye candidate area through illumination normalization can be reduced by anthropometric measurement and eye detection is performed by PCA and Circle Mask mixture model. This methods achieve robust eye detection on arbitrary illumination changing conditions. Drowsiness state is determined by the level on illumination normalize eye images by a simple calculation. Our system alarms and operates seatbelt on vibration through controller area network(CAN) when the driver's doze level is detected. Our algorithm is implemented with low computation complexity and high recognition rate. We achieve 97% of correct detection rate through in-car environment experiments.

운전자 졸음 감지 시스템에서는 운전자의 눈의 위치를 정확하게 검출하고 추적하는 것이 중요하다. 각막 반사를 이용한 눈동자의 명암 차를 이용하여 동공의 위치를 정확하게 검출할 수 있다. 그러나 눈을 깜빡이는 순간에는 각막 반사 현상이 나타나지 않아 눈 검출에 실패하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 각막 반사와 템플릿 매칭을 이용하여 운전자가 눈을 깜빡이는 상황에도 지속적으로 두 눈의 위치를 정확하게 검출할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다.

In this paper, we propose a new illumination-robust drowsy driver monitoring system with single CCD(Charge Coupled Device) camera for intelligent vehicle in the day and night. For this system that is monitoring driver's eyes during a driving, the eye detection and the measure of eyelid movement are the important preprocesses. Therefore, we propose efficient illumination compensation algorithm to improve the performance of eye detection and also eyelid movement measuring method for efficient drowsy detection in various illumination. For real-time application, Cascaded SVM (Cascaded Support Vector Machine) is applied as an efficient eye verification method in this system. Furthermore, in order to estimate the performance of the proposed algorithm, we collect video data about drivers under various illuminations in the day and night. Finally, we acquired average eye detection rate of over 98% about these own data, and PERCLOS(The percentage of eye-closed time during a period) are represented as drowsy detection results of the proposed system for the collected video data.

Recently, researches related with automative mechanism have been widely studied to increase the driver's safety by continuously monitoring the driver's health condition to prevent driver's drowsiness. This paper describes the design of wearable chest belt for ECG and reflectance pulse oximetry for SpO2 sensors based on wireless sensor network to monitor the driver's healthcare status. ECG, SpO2 and heart rate signals can be transmitted via wireless sensor node to base station connected to the server. Intelligent monitoring system is designed at the server to analyze the SpO2 and ECG signals. HRV (Heart Rate Variability) signals can be obtained by processing the ECG and PPG signals. HRV signals are further analyzed based on time and frequency domain to determine the driver's drowsiness status.

Drowsy driving, one of the biggest causes of traffic accidents every year, is accompanied by various factors. As a general method to check whether or not there is drowsiness, a method of identifying a driver's expression and driving pattern, and a method of analyzing bio-signals are being studied. This paper proposes a driver fatigue detection system using deep learning technology and bio-signal measurement technology. As the first step in the proposed method, deep learning is used to detect the driver's eye shape, yawning presence, and body movement to detect drowsiness. In the second stage, it was designed to increase the accuracy of the system by identifying the driver's fatigue state using the pulse wave signal and body temperature. As a result of the experiment, it was possible to reliably determine the driver's drowsiness and fatigue in real-time images.
