Driver Drowsiness Detection Using Machine Learning

Authors(2) :-Dr. K. Shanmugam, C. Bhavya Sree

The Drowsiness Detection System presented in this project addresses the critical issue of drowsy behavior during activities demanding sustained attention, such as driving. Leveraging computer vision techniques and libraries like Dlib and OpenCV, the system provides real-time monitoring of facial features, with a specific focus on the eyes. The calculation of the Eye Aspect Ratio (EAR) serves as a key metric for assessing drowsiness, enabling the system to trigger timely alerts when signs of drowsiness are detected. Configurable parameters, including EAR thresholds and frame check values, allow users to tailor the system to individual preferences. The integration of visual and auditory alert mechanisms enhances user awareness, contributing to accident prevention and promoting responsible behavior. The project report details the methodology, implementation specifics, and results, highlighting the system's potential applications in automotive safety, transportation, healthcare, education, and beyond. The Drowsiness Detection System represents a practical and effective solution for enhancing safety in scenarios where sustained attention is paramount
