Design and Implementation of a Driving Assistance System in a Car-like Robot When Fatigue in the User is Detected

Abstract

In this paper it is presented a driving assistance system when drowsiness is detected in the driver; the system is tested by a car like robot that is wirelessly controlled by a computational interface developed in Visual Studio 2010, which emulates an automobile panel. Through an artificial vision system the drivers head orientation is monitored for determining if he/she is in a drowsiness state; if so, the robot control turn into automatic and the robot pull over to the right side of the way (built track).
