Real-Time Fatigue Monitoring System in Diverse Driving Scenarios

Monitoring driver fatigue is critical in safety-critical domains like defence vehicles, aircraft, and commercial transportation to ensure safety and efficiency. Operational errors due to cognitive impairment, physical fatigue, and distractions are major causes of accidents. Our real-time fatigue monitoring system assesses users’ physiological and behavioural states, including head movements, to detect fatigue and distraction. Human studies validate its effectiveness in capturing facial features and detecting fatigue with minimal data loss. This non-intrusive solution can be customised and deployed across diverse driving scenarios to enhance vehicle crew performance and safety.
