New Warning System to Prevent Car Accidents
"The information comes to the system through a video camera, located on the dashboard of the car, and measures eye blinking speed, its degree of openness or where the driver is looking in order to detect potentially dangerous situations," Science Daily quoted Professor Josi Marma Armingol from the Department of Systems Engineering and Automation of the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M), as saying.
"If the system detects that the driver is getting drowsy or that he or she is distracted from the road, the driver is warned by an audible signal to alert him or her to the dangerous situation," Armingol added.
Drivers of all types of vehicles can use the Advanced Driving Alert System (ADAS).
Co-researcher, Arturo de la Escalera said: "It would be logical to start with drivers who spend a lot of time at the wheel, such as truck drivers or bus drivers and later refine the system to apply it to all types of drivers."
