Abstract
This paper presents the advanced system with GPRS module and information fusion approach for real-time detecting the status of driver. It uses infrared cameras to simultaneously monitor the fatigue symptoms of driver for determining the fatigue status. The vision information consists of the trend of pupil change, the times of blinks, the times of yawns, and the angle between the head and the plumb line. The veracity of the system will be strengthened to determine the status of fatigue driving through information fusion technology. In addition, the system is capable of automatically drawing the conclusion that the driver is falling asleep and issuing different warning signals depending on the level of the fatigue status. The system will transmit the conclusion automatically to the traffic control department with wireless transmission.
