Abstract The number of accidents during driving is increasing day by day and drowsy driving has been implicated as a causal factor of road accidents. Research on driver drowsiness detection is important to improve road traffic safety. However, most of the conventional methods are intrusive since they often require expensive sensors. Moreover, their performances are rather limited since only single features and shallow classifiers are adopted. In this paper, we propose DrowsyDet, a real-time mobile application to detect driver drowsiness. DrowsyDet consists of the following steps. Firstly, the facial region and landmarks are extracted with a face detection model and landmark model. Secondly, three CNN (Convolutional Neural Networks) models are built to classify facial drowsiness state, eyes state, and mouth state respectively. Finally, the drivers' state (i.e. normal, yawn, and sleep) is obtained based on all the models' results. All the models are lightweight CNN models that can be deployed on a mobile phone. Compared with existing methods, DrowsyDet is non-intrusive since it only requires a mobile phone without the Internet. We also build a large driver drowsiness dataset to test our approach, which includes different genders, ages, head poses, and illuminations. Experimental results demonstrate that DrownsyDet can reach a significantly high average accuracy of 97.8%. © 2019 IEEE.
