Abstract:

A new fatigue driving detection technology was proposed with high adaptability and recognition accuracy in low light environment. A depth vision sensor was used to obtain the driver’s driving image in real time;with extracted the face feature point data in real time through a face tracking algorithm to fit a eyes and mouth contour with a least square method.The normalized indexes were calculated for the eye and mouth opening and closing to extract six fatigue recognition feature data including the blink frequency, the average blink time, the total eye closing time, the yawning frequency, the total yawning time, and the low head up frequency. A recognition model was established based on the convolution neural network algorithm of data statistical sequence to construct a fatigue state detection system. Experiments show that in low light environment, this algorithm has a accuracy of 90% for fatigue driving recognition with a recognition time of about 130 ms.
