Microsomnia, decreased concentration and fatigue at the wheel are particularly dangerous and are the cause of many accidents. However, the initial signs can be detected in advance: tired, low-attention drivers perform less precise steering maneuvers and have to make minor path corrections more often.
The willingness to take over the vehicle control in driving scenarios, in autopilot mode, is an important factor for road safety. This paper presents a low-cost system for automatic recognition of driver activity by eye monitoring. Thus, an architecture based on eye movement and blink tracking data is introduced in this system, thus analyzing several features. It is estimated that this technology will help prevent acci-dents caused by drivers who become drowsy. Various studies have suggested that about 20% of all road accidents are related to fatigue.
