Microsleep accident prevention for SMART vehicle via image processing integrated with artificial intelligent

Abstract

Number of accidents caused by microsleep increases rapidly each day. This is due to the current trend of life, for example high workload, long working hours, traffic jams, having too much caffeine, drinking alcohol, age factor, and many others. This microsleep can lead to major accidents, higher number of deaths, injuries, demolition of property and permanent disability. The creation of SMART Vehicles in the Internet of Things (IoT) increases the technology capabilities in transportation sectors, in addition to reduce the number of crashes on the roads. An integration with Artificial Intelligent (AI) can be a perfect combination on development of a microsleep detection and prevention. While the image processing will be used as the method of detecting the face changes from normal to microsleep symptoms on detecting the eye degree, the head motion and the mouth yawning. This work presented a review of current research that supported the integration of IoT and AI. The analysis and discussion on the best solution and method to prevent microsleep accidents was shown. Lastly, recommendation on development of real sensors for SMART Vehicles will be discussed. A preliminary result on this work also will be shown.
