A Survey Paper On Drowsiness Detection & Alarm System for Drivers

Our safety is the first priority while travelling or driving. One mistake of the driver can lead to severe physical injuries, deaths and significant economic losses. Nowadays there are many systems available in market like navigation systems, various sensors etc. to make driver’s work easy. There are various reasons especially human errors which gives rises to the road accidents. Reports say that there is a huge increment in the road accidents in our country since last few years. The main reason occurring from the highway accidents is the drowsiness and sleepiness of driver while driving. It is a necessary step to come with an efficient technique to detect drowsiness as soon as driver feels sleepy. This could save large number of accidents to occur. We conduct the survey on various designs on drowsiness detection methods to reduce the accidents.
