Traffic accidents caused by drowsy drivers represent a crucial threat to public safety. Recent statistics show that drowsy drivers cause an estimated 15.5% of fatal accidents. With the widespread use of mobile devices and roadside units, these accidents can be significantly prevented using a drowsiness detection solution. This device would be a valuable tool for helping to keep drivers safe on the road. It would be especially beneficial for drivers who are prone to drowsiness, such as long-haul truck drivers or shit workers. The system works by collecting data from the various sensors and using a machine learning algorithm. While several solutions were proposed in the literature, they all fall short of presenting a distributed architecture that can answer the needs of these applications without breaching the driver’s privacy.
