We studied the problem of driver's low vigilance state which is related to the one reason of traffic accidents. In this paper, we developed the drowsiness warning system for a drowsy driver. To extract the eyes and mouth from the driver's facial image in real time, a computer vision method was used. The eye blink duration and yawning were used as measurement parameters of drowsiness detection. When the drowsy state of a driver was detected, the driver was refreshed by the scent generator and the alarm. Also, the driver's bio-signal was acquired and analyzed to measure the vigilance state.

본 논문은 지역적 특징을 빠르게 추출할 수 있는 SURF(Speed Up Robust Features) 알고리즘을 이용해 안경과 조명 등 자동차 환경에 적응적인 새로운 눈 상태 검출방법을 제안하였다. 또한, 베이지안 추론을 이용하여 각 운전자에 대해 세 가지 고유의 눈 상태 템플릿을 실시간적으로 생성함으로써 눈 상태 검출 성능을 향상시켰다. 주 야간, 안경 착용 시, 미착용 시 등 여러 환경에 대한 성능 실험 결과 주 야간 환경에서 각각 평균 98.1%와 96.0%의 검출률을, 공개된 ZJU데이터베이스에 대한 실험 결과 평균 97.8%의 검출률을 보임으로써 제안된 방법의 우수성을 보였다.

This study aimed to verify the criteria of the driver monitoring systems proposed by UNECE ACSF informal working group and the ministry of land, infrastructure, and transport of South Korea using driving behavior data. In order to verify the criteria, we investigated the safety regulations of driver monitoring systems in a conditional autonomous vehicle and found that the driver monitoring measures were related to eye blinks times, head movements, and eye closed duration. Thus, we took two different experimental data including real-world driving and simulator-based drowsy driving behaviors in previous studies. The real-world driving data were used for analyzing blink times and head movement intervals, and the drowsiness data were used for eye closed duration. In the drowsy driving study, 10 drivers drove approximately 37 km of a monotonous highway (about 22 min) twice. The results suggested that the appropriate duration of eyes continuously closed was 4 seconds. The results from real-world driving data were presented in the other paper - part 1.

In Modern days, Self-driving for modern people is an absolute necessity for transportation and many other reasons. Additionally, after the outbreak of COVID-19, driving by oneself is preferred over other means of transportation for the prevention of infection. However, due to the constant exposure to stressful situations and chronic fatigue one experiences from the work or the traffic to and from it, modern drivers often drive under drowsiness which can lead to serious accidents and fatality. To address this problem, we propose a drowsy driving prevention learning model which detects a driver's state of drowsiness. Furthermore, a method to sound a warning message after drowsiness detection is also presented. This is to use MoveNet to quickly and accurately extract the keypoints of the body of the driver and Dense Neural Network(DNN) to train on real-time driving behaviors, which then immediately warns if an abnormal drowsy posture is detected. With this method, we expect reduction in traffic accident and enhancement in overall traffic safety.

Approximately 23% of traffic accidents appear to be caused by drowsiness while driving. This fact shows that drowsy driving is a big factor in many traffic accidents. Therefore, the development of a drowsiness checking system is necessary to prevent drowsy driving. In this paper, we analyse the changes of the histogram of eye region images which are acquired using a CCD camera. We develop a drowsiness checking system using this histogram change information. The experimental results show that our proposed method enhances the accuracy of checking drowsiness by nearly 98%, and can be used to prevent vehicle accidents due to the drowsiness of a driver.

Prevention of drowsy driving is one of the important issues for safe driving. In this study, the algorithm for detection of drowsy driving has been developed. The algorithm was implemented by applying template matching and line profile, which detects eye blink. The accuracy of eye detection and blink detection was $97.45{\pm}3.67%$ and $98.50{\pm}0.92%$, which was resulted from the verification experiment that 21 subjects participated. Consequently, the algorithm is expected to be used to prevent sleep-deprived driving.

In this study, we propose a non-invasive method to detect the drowsiness of a driver. The computer vision technology was used to extract an eye, track eyelids and measure the parameters related to the blink. We examined the blink patterns of a driver in drowsy state. For the evaluation of our image processing algorithm, the blink patterns were compared with the measured EOG signals. The result showed that our algorithm might be available in detection of drowsiness.

The purpose of this study is to identify the cause of driver's drowsiness and to get information about driver's drowsiness from facial image using computer vision. We measured the driver's movements of a head and shoulders in the highway arid street. We also measured the eye blink duration and yawning duration of normal and drowsy drivers. from the results, we confirmed that the measurement of eye blink and yawning might be a way of drowsy detection.

다양한 원인으로 매년 수많은 사람이 교통사고로 목숨을 잃거나 크게 다치곤 한다. 최근 교통사고 통계자료에 따르면 졸음운전으로 인한 교통사고가 음주운전이나, 과속보다도 높은 비중을 차지하고 있었다. 또한, 사고가 났을 때 안전벨트를 매지 않은 운전자나 동승객은 부상 정도가 훨씬 심각한 것으로 알려져 전 좌석에 안전벨트를 꼭 착용해야 하는 법도 제정되었다. 그런데도 많은 운전자 및 동승자가 안전벨트를 착용하지 않아 크게 부상을 당하는 사고는 줄지 않고 있다. 이러한 사고와 부상을 줄이기 위하여 본 논문에서는 다중 네트워크를 이용하여 운전자의 졸음 감지 및 운전자, 동승자의 안전벨트 착용 여부까지 실시간으로 판별하는 시스템을 설계하고 구현한다.
