This work presents the design and implementation of drivers fatigue detection system based on FPGA to prevent car accidents. According to the bright pupil phenomenon, which is produced by the retina when the incident lights wavelength is 850 nm, drivers eyes can be detected easily. While acquiring the real-time video of the drivers face by camera, the system accomplishes the detection of drivers eyes by using a simplified PCNN (pulse coupled neural network) and the computation of the PERCLOS (Percentage of Eye Closure) to decide whether the driver is fatigue or not. All the designing and accomplishments of the system are based on the FPGA platform Xilinx Virtex Pro Development Board. During the experiments, the system has the ability of processing 25 frames/sec, which is the speed of collection of the used camera. Also, the fatigue detection system has good stability and accuracy.


Every year in India, most of the car accidents are occurs and affects on number of lives. Most of the road accidents are occurs due to driver’s inattention and fatigue. Drivers require to focus on different circumstances, together with vehicle speed and path, the separation between vehicles, passing vehicles, and potential risky or uncommon events ahead. Also the accident occurs due to the who bring into play cell phones at the same time as driving, drink and drive, etc. Due to this, most of the companies of automobiles tries to make available best Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) to the customer to avoid the accidents. The lane detection approach is one of the method provided by automobile companies in ADAS, in which the vehicle must follows the lane. Therefore, there is less chance to get an accident. The information obtained from the lane is used to alert the driver. Therefore most of the researchers are attracted towards this field. But, due to the varying road circumstances, it is very difficult to detect the lane. The computer apparition and machine learning approaches are presents in most of the articles. In this article, we presents the deep learning scheme for identification of lane. There are two phases are presents in this work. In a first phase the image transformation is done and in second phase lane detection is occurred. At first, the proposed model gets the numerous lane pictures and changes the picture into its relating Bird's eye view picture by using Inverse perspective mapping transformation. The Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) classifier to identify the lane from the bird’s eye view image. The Earth Worm- Crow Search Algorithm (EW-CSA) is designed to help DCNN with the optimal weights. The DCNN classifier gets trained with the view picture from the bird’s eye image and the optimal weights are selected through newly developed EW-CSA algorithm. All these algorithms are performed in MATLAB. The simulation results shows that the exact detection of lane of road. Also, the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity are calculated and its values are 0.99512, 0.9925, and 0.995 respectively.

The effects of distracted driving are one of the main causes of deaths and injuries on U.S. roads. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), among the different types of distractions, the use of cellphones is highly related to car accidents, commonly known as “texting and driving”, with around 481,000 drivers distracted by their cellphones while driving, about 3450 people killed and 391,000 injured in car accidents involving distracted drivers in 2016 alone. Therefore, in this research, a novel methodology to detect distracted drivers using their cellphone is proposed. For this, a ceiling mounted wide angle camera coupled to a deep learning–convolutional neural network (CNN) are implemented to detect such distracted drivers. The CNN is constructed by the Inception V3 deep neural network, being trained to detect “texting and driving” subjects. The final CNN was trained and validated on a dataset of 85,401 images, achieving an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.891 in the training set, an AUC of 0.86 on a blind test and a sensitivity value of 0.97 on the blind test. In this research, for the first time, a CNN is used to detect the problem of texting and driving, achieving a significant performance. The proposed methodology can be incorporated into a smart infotainment car, thus helping raise drivers’ awareness of their driving habits and associated risks, thus helping to reduce careless driving and promoting safe driving practices to reduce the accident rate.


This research contain convolutional neural network are used to recognize whether a car on a given image is damage or not, from where it is damage and severity of the damage. Using transfer learning to take advantage of available models that are trained on a more general object recognition task, very satisfactory performance has been achieved, which indicate great opportunities of this approach. Car accidents are stressful and the auto claims process is ripe for disruption. Using computer vision to accurately classify vehicle damage and facilitate claims triage
