Review of approaches to the problem of driver fatigue and drowsiness

Abstract

This article maps the applications and tools for driver fatigue detection currently available and those in development, explores the experimental and research work gained on the development of novice methodologies and tools in this field. The driver drowsiness measurements have been conducted on driving simulators in the laboratories of Czech Technical University in Prague at Faculty of transportation sciences. The later experiments' technical platforms and approaches of measurements are described here along with the analysis of obtained results that are compared to those of the related work experimental experiments. The conclusions about possible best approaches will be provided.
