Image Acquisition of Drivers' Fatigue State Based on Fuzzy Evaluation

Abstract:

The research on monitoring and predicting drivers’ fatigue state has remarkable effect on prevention of traffic accidents, using the CCD image sensor camera as the image acquisition device of driver’s face and the 940nm infrared emitting diode as the light supplementary device and 3-points light supplementary had been utilized, the light supplementary system had been optimized by the experiment of infrared light supplementary which proceeded by means of combining the orthogonal experiment and expert fuzzy evaluation. The research result makes great sense to the monitoring of drivers’ fatigue state and traffic safety
